We are particularly excited about methods for post-training model optimization (pruning, quantization, NAS), efficient architecture design, adaptive/dynamic inference, resource-efficient training and finetuning, and so forth. You will work within an amazing and collaborative research team that consistently publishes at the top venues in computer vision and machine learning. Our existing expertise includes computer vision, deep learning, generative models, and so forth. Your contributions have the chance to create real impact on our products.
What you'll be doing:
Research, design and implement novel methods for efficient deep learning.
Publish original research.
Collaborate with other team members and teams.
Mentor interns.
Speak at conferences and events.
Work with product groups to transfer technology.
Collaborate with external researchers.
What we need to see:
Completing or recently completed a Ph.D. in Computer Science/Engineering, Electrical Engineering, etc., or have equivalent research experience.
Excellent knowledge of theory and practice of computer vision methods, as well as deep learning.
Background in pruning, quantization, NAS, efficient backbones, and so on, is a plus.
Experience with large language models and large vision-language models is required.
Excellent programming skills in Python and PyTorch; C++ and parallel programming (e.g., CUDA) is a plus.
Hands-on experience with large-scale model training including data preparation and model parallelization (tensor and pipeline) is required.
Outstanding research track record.
Excellent communications skills.

What We Do
NVIDIA’s invention of the GPU in 1999 sparked the growth of the PC gaming market, redefined modern computer graphics, and revolutionized parallel computing. More recently, GPU deep learning ignited modern AI — the next era of computing — with the GPU acting as the brain of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can perceive and understand the world. Today, NVIDIA is increasingly known as “the AI computing company.”
