Principal Software Architect - Federated AI

NVIDIA is now looking for a Principal Software Architect in our federated AI group. The quality of AI models developed is only as good as the data it was trained on, and hence large datasets are necessary to extract complex and predictive patterns. Compared to the classical centralized training approach, federated AI is a privacy-preserving, distributed learning paradigm which tackles the challenges associated with learning from data in a decentralized way. We believe federated AI will drive transformative changes across industries like healthcare, financial services, scientific computing, and government. Imagine developing AI solutions that enable hospitals to collaborate on life-saving research without compromising patient privacy, or financial institutions to enhance fraud detection while safeguarding sensitive data. Envision edge AI applications that revolutionize autonomous driving, creating vehicles that learn and adapt in real-time. As a Principal Architect of NVIDIA FLARE team (), you will advance federated AI with innovative decentralized AI solutions. Your work will drive the next wave of innovation, empowering organizations to unlock the full potential of their data while maintaining the highest standards of security and privacy. What you'll be doing :

• Collaborate with AI researchers and industry leaders to architect future-proof federated computing infrastructure.
• Lead the design and development of cutting-edge federated computing system that enable secure, large-scale distributed AI.
• Optimize platform performance, scalability, security, privacy, reliability, and ease of use for enterprise deployments.
• Drive architectural innovations that accelerate federated learning adoption across research communities and industries worldwide.
• Mentor junior engineers and establish engineering excellence through best practices, fostering a culture of continuous innovation. What we need to see :
• BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
• 15+ years of experience in distributed systems development and architecture.
• Proven track record of designing, developing, and evangelizing distributed software platforms.
