The posting

NVIDIA is building the world’s leading AI company, and we are looking for an expert AV and GenAI Solutions Architect to help assist customers with adoption of NVIDIA's full-stack technologies as well as building and deploying solutions around Generative AI and Physical AI and other related GPU-accelerated technologies in which intelligent agents can learn, reason, and interact the world. As part of the Automotive Solutions Architecture team, we work with some of the most innovative accelerated computing platforms focused on the development and test of autonomous vehicles, in-vehicle AI assistance, and ride sharing algorithms among other things. A Solutions Architect is the first line of technical expertise between NVIDIA and customers so you will engage directly with developers, researchers, and visionary scientists at some of the most strategic customers as well as work directly with business and engineering teams on product strategy as it pertains to these customers. Join us in this exciting endeavor!

What you'll be doing

  • Engage with customers to help them scope and develop solutions for building AV perception and planning models and pipelines, simulations, synthetic data generation, and software in the loop testing, AI enhanced manipulation and navigation workflows using NVIDIA's Physical AI platforms and CUDA-X libraries.
  • Provide hands-on technical mentorship to partners and customers on Nvidia GenAI stack. Guide customers to develope and deploy Agentic AI workflows on our platforms, quantifying the benefits of our accelerated computing software and hardware.
  • Partner with Sales, Engineering, Product and other Solution Architect teams to drive NVIDIA full stack adoption. Develop a deep understanding of customer workflows and requirements, lead proof-of-concepts evaluations and provide internal feedback to drive continuous product improvements.
  • Build collateral (notebooks, github repos, demos, etc.) applied to workflows such as AV and GenAI data curation, model training and validations, LLMs, VFMs, video encoding/decoding, etc.
