Engineering Manager, Agentic GenAI Platform

NVIDIA is looking for an Engineering Manager to lead the team responsible for deploying and serving Large Language Models (LLMs) and Vision-Language Models (VLMs) at scale.

Our team builds and operates an AI inference platform that enables customers to deploy and run brand new generative AI models efficiently across NVIDIA GPU platforms. The platform operates at the intersection of model optimization, inference systems, distributed computing, and production infrastructure. In this role, you will manage a team of engineers responsible for taking modern models from research and experimentation into highly optimized, reliable, and scalable production deployments. You will work closely with research scientists, software engineers, and hardware specialists to push the boundaries of AI inference performance and deliver a world-class model deployment platform.

What you will be doing:

• Lead, mentor, and grow a high-performing team building and operating a platform for deploying GenAI models at scale.

• Drive the deployment and optimization of LLMs and VLMs for low-latency, high-throughput, and cost-efficient inference.

• Analyze, profile, and optimize end-to-end deep learning workloads across the model, inference stack, distributed systems, and GPU hardware.

• Work closely with research teams and model developers to bring new architectures and models from prototype to production.

• Drive technical strategy and roadmap for model deployment, inference optimization, scalability, reliability, and performance.

• Establish engineering standards for benchmarking, profiling, production deployment, and continuous performance optimization.

• Collaborate with internal and external partners to enable seamless deployment of rapidly evolving GenAI models.

.
What we want to see:

• Master’s or PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience.

• 8+ years overall experience, including 3 years of management/leadership.

• Strong hands-on experience with LLMs and/or VLMs and a solid understanding of modern deep learning architectures.

• Deep expertise in inference optimization techniques such as quantization, speculative decoding, continuous batching, prefix caching, and KV-cache optimization.

• Experience with disaggregated inference/serving, distributed inference, multi-node deployments, and GPU cluster orchestration.

• Strong technical leadership, communication, and people-management skills.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Experience building or operating AI inference, model serving, or model deployment platforms.

• Practical experience in working with TensorRT, TensorRT-LLM, vLLM, SGLang, or comparable inference/serving frameworks.

• Experience building highly available, scalable, and observable production services for AI workloads.
