NVIDIA's invention of the GPU in 1999 fueled the growth of the PC gaming market, redefined modern computer graphics, and revolutionized parallel computing. More recently, GPU deep learning ignited modern AI — the next era of computing — with the GPU acting as the brain of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can perceive and understand the world. Today, we are increasingly known as “the AI computing company”. We are growing our company and the team with the brightest people in the world.
We are looking for passionate Application Software Engineers, with a specialization in planning and control, to develop and productize NVIDIA's DRIVE software. As a member of NVIDIA's Solution Engineering team, you will help craft the application software architecture by working closely with partners developing on our platform and collaborating with internal teams. In addition, you will also be involved in the advancement and refinement of the overall drivability of our solution, focusing on integration challenges and using your deep analytical skills to tease through the complexity of the system to find effective solutions.
NVIDIA’s deep learning platform has already made a major impact to the field and is broadly used across leading academic institutions, start-ups, and industry, including the world’s largest Internet companies. We need passionate, hard-working and creative engineers to help us tackle more of these exciting opportunities in autonomous driving!
