About the role

Senior technical leader focused on RDMA, congestion management, and multipath transport for NVIDIA’s networking platforms. Defines protocol direction, drives standards and ecosystem engagement, and translates insights into actionable roadmap investments across hardware, firmware, software, and product teams.

Responsibilities

  • Define and guide protocol and architecture direction for RDMA and sophisticated transport technologies across next-generation networking platforms, focusing on performance, scalability, interoperability, and adaptability.
  • Lead technical work spanning RDMA semantics, congestion management, multipath transport, reliability, ordering, virtualization, and software-visible interfaces.
  • Develop NVIDIA's viewpoint and contributions across ecosystem and standards organizations (UEC, IBTA, IEEE, OCP).
  • Collaborate with architects, hardware, firmware, software, validation, and product teams to translate protocol concepts into practical features and prioritized roadmap investments.
  • Evaluate standards proposals, protocol extensions, and ecosystem requirements; identify tradeoffs and drive streamlined technical recommendations.
  • Engage with internal and external contributors to advance interoperability, performance portability, and adoption within the RDMA ecosystem.
  • Use analysis, modeling, experimentation, traces, and system-level reasoning to validate architectural decisions and identify bottlenecks or gaps.
  • Represent technical direction to senior leaders, engineering teams, and external collaborators.

Qualifications

  • B.Sc, M.Sc, or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent experience.
  • More than 10 years of proven experience in networking protocols, interconnect architecture, systems research, or related areas.
  • Strong technical knowledge in RDMA technologies (InfiniBand, RoCE, verbs and transport semantics), NIC or switch architecture, congestion control algorithms, or multipath transport.
  • Strong understanding of modern data center networking, including Ethernet, congestion management, routing and switching interactions, and large-scale system behavior.
  • Proven background in protocol definition, contributing to standards, interoperability efforts, or technical leadership within an ecosystem.
  • Ability to reason across hardware, firmware, software, and system architecture boundaries and make well-grounded technical tradeoffs.
  • Strong record of influencing technical direction across multi-functional teams and aligning diverse collaborators around architecture decisions.
  • Strong interpersonal skills and ability to convey complex technical perspectives clearly.
