Senior Software Engineer - Drive OS

We are looking for a world-class System Software Automation engineer to join the Build & Release DRIVE OS team. NVIDIA DRIVE™ OS is a foundational software stack consisting of an embedded Real Time OS (RTOS), hypervisor, NVIDIA® CUDA® libraries, NVIDIA Tensor RT™, and other modules that give you access to the hardware engines. DRIVE OS offers a safe and secure execution environment for applications such as secure boot, security services, firewall, and over-the-air updates. You will be a part of a team streamlining the development, build, and releases with modern DevOps tools!

What you'll be doing:

  • Automating and optimizing build, test, integration, and release processes for publicly distributed libraries.

  • Configuring, maintaining, and building upon deployments of industry-standard tools (e.g. Gitlab, Jenkins, Docker, CMake, Jira).

  • Developing shared utilities for setting up systems, running tests, and recording results.

  • Use LLMs to analyze and improve developer documentation, including README files, API references, and onboarding guides.

  • Prototype intelligent agents that assist with dependency management, versioning, and release notes.

  • Contributing to best-practices for building, testing, and releasing software.

  • Identifying infrastructure needs and translating them into action.

What we need to see:

  • BS or higher degree or equivalent experience in computer science.

  • We are looking for 5+ years of meaningful experience.

  • Strong interests towards groundbreaking technologies and ability to take initiatives and drive them across multiple functional teams.

  • Proven experience setting up, maintaining, and automating continuous integration systems.

  • Proficiency in SCM (e.g. Perforce, Git) and build systems (e.g. make, cmake, bazel).

  • Adept programming skills in Python (or similar).

  • Curiosity about LLMs, NLP, or AI-driven developer tools

  • Passion for “it just works” automation and enabling team members.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • Experience with mobile/embedded platforms and multiple operating systems (Linux, QNX, and Android).

  • Experience with OpenAI, Hugging Face, or similar LLM platforms.

  • Track record of identifying useful new technologies and incorporating them into SW development flows.

  • Experience as an active contributor to a SW project involving many developers.

  • Experience with software releases: codeline branching, integrations, maintenance, bug tracking.

Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is 152,000 USD - 241,500 USD.

You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.

Applications for this job will be accepted at least until March 22, 2026.
