Job description

from Nvidia careers

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to help build NeMo Platform, NVIDIA’s product for developing, evaluating, deploying, and operating AI systems at scale. This role will focus on NeMo Evaluator, which helps teams understand whether changes to AI agents are making those agents better. As AI systems become more autonomous and more deeply integrated into real workflows, teams need practical infrastructure for observing behavior, measuring progress, catching regressions, and iterating with confidence.

Our roadmap is increasingly focused on agentic development and automated agent improvement: giving teams the infrastructure they need to compare versions, understand behavior, and make empirically grounded improvements over time.

What you'll be doing:

  • Design and implement Python-first APIs, SDK workflows, and plugin interfaces for building, measuring, and improving agents across multiple runtimes and product surfaces

  • Build reusable systems for observing behavior, measuring progress, detecting regressions, and turning runtime evidence into product decisions

  • Build systems for ingesting, normalizing, validating, and analyzing agent execution data and evaluation datasets

  • Partner with research, product, platform, and infrastructure teams to integrate agentic capabilities broadly across NVIDIA agent runtimes and developer workflows

  • Help turn emerging agent development and improvement techniques into reliable, reusable product capabilities

  • Improve reliability, observability, debuggability, and performance across NeMoStack services, SDKs, plugins, jobs, and developer workflows
