Senior Software Engineer, AI SDK Multimedia Platform

About the job

NVIDIA is searching for a Multimedia Software Engineer for developing multimedia technologies for a new class of server products and appliances for our Metropolis platforms. Data is the lifeblood of the modern city. Today, it’s being captured by over 500 million cameras worldwide, and that number is growing exponentially. This is creating a tsunami of information that is impossible for humans to analyze. AI is the key to turning this information into insight. It’s transforming how we collect, inspect, and analyze data to impact everything from public safety, traffic, and parking management to law enforcement and city services. NVIDIA Metropolis is leading this AI revolution, providing the tools, technologies, and expertise to meet every challenge with smarter, faster applications.

This role will be responsible for implementation of advanced multimedia acquisition and retrieval systems for AI processing. Your deep experience with multimedia formats, transport protocols, hardware-accelerated Codecs, and micro service-based architectures will provide the foundation for a platform solving smart cities problems with AI. Strong collaboration and communication skills are a prerequisite for joining a multi-disciplinary and world-wide team driving the evolution of smart cities.

What You'll Be Doing

• Developing a video management system capable of scaling from embedded devices up to large data center deployments
• Tackling data acquisition and service challenges with a secure, micro services-based architecture, including system and network data movement and resource utilization
• Collaborating within a well-defined product life cycle with distinct requirements, architecture and iterative development phases
• Implementing solutions using open protocols, standards and idioms including WEBRTC, ONVIF, RTP/RTSP, SOAP, REST, gRPC
