Run end-to-end post-training programs with enterprise customers. This includes supervised fine-tuning, reinforcement learning (GRPO, DPO, PPO), LoRA / PEFT, data curation, synthetic data generation, reward design, and evaluation design.
Build evaluation environments that give customers an objective measure of post-training progress. These environments feed field signal back to Product and Research, improving the next generation of open-weight models.
Scale our impact by building reusable recipes, reference pipelines, and playbooks that let other teams succeed. Senior Solutions Architects also mentor other SAs and raise the technical bar on review and customer-facing deliverables.
What We Need to See
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Data Science, or a related field.
8+ years of professional experience in Industry background spanning software/hardware engineering, developer relations, technical partnerships, solutions architecture, or product management — with 3-5+ years of direct, hands-on experience in open-weight model customization — including supervised fine-tuning, reinforcement learning (GRPO, DPO, PPO), LoRA / PEFT, data curation, synthetic data generation, reward design, and evaluation design.
Deep technical expertise in AI/ML and open-weight model post-training, with a track record of driving customer engagements and contributing to software platforms, systems, and libraries.
Shown ability to communicate sophisticated technical ideas clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences, from engineers to C-level executives.
Strong problem-solving skills, intellectual curiosity, and a dedication to helping customers succeed.
Proven success in balancing insight for customer and partner needs with the ability to drive complex product decisions through positive relationships.
Experience leading complex, ambiguous customer engagements, proactively pushing them forward. Proficiency with agent-assisted model training workflows and comfort using AI agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex to build, debug, and iterate on training and evaluation pipelines. Expertise in distributed computing, including launching and debugging multi-node training and evaluation jobs on SLURM or Kubernetes.
Ways to Stand Out from the Crowd
A hands-on technical expert and problem solver who can clearly describe solution paths for complex challenges.
History of enabling customers and/or partners to optimally adopt NVIDIA technologies and platforms.
A technical vision that influences research, product, and engineering decisions and drives production outcomes.
Experience with and/or contributions to open-source NVIDIA AI libraries and models, particularly Nemotron, NeMo, NeMo-RL, and NeMo Gym. Hands-on experience designing agent environments, synthetic data pipelines, and verifiable rewards for RL post-training, or using serverless post-training APIs such as Tinker.
Hands-on experience customizing open-weight models (Nemotron, Qwen, DeepSeek, GLM, Kimi), or AI model training applied to multimodal data. Experience designing benchmarks and evaluation harnesses that were adopted by other teams.
