NVIDIA is searching for an outstanding Software Linux Engineer to expand our installation and packaging capabilities for NVIDIA's networking software. As a Software Engineer at NVIDIA, you will focus on designing, developing, and maintaining user-space tools, packaging systems, and installation flows across leading Linux distributions. This position offers the opportunity to have a real impact in a dynamic, technology-focused company, contributing to product lines that power the most advanced data centers, cloud environments, and HPC systems in the world.   Are you passionate about Linux, system-level integration, and delivering seamless installation experiences? Do you want to help drive the deployment of high-speed networking solutions across multiple Linux ecosystems? Are you excited to work on cutting-edge technologies while enabling customers and internal teams to accelerate adoption?   What you’ll be doing: Design, implement, and maintain installation and packaging workflows for NVIDIA networking software across major Linux distributions (Debian, Ubuntu, RHEL, SLES, etc.). Develop and support meta-packages, profiles, and tools to streamline user-space installation and configuration. Work with distribution maintainers to ensure compatibility and smooth delivery through native packaging systems (DEB, RPM). Perform system-level testing and verification of package installations on various platforms and OS versions. Collaborate with cross-functional teams (kernel, QA, release engineering, and support) to ensure installation quality and maintainability. Contribute to Linux kernel driver development and backporting to support advanced networking features.    What we need to see: BS in Computer Science, Computer/Software Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience). 4+ years of software development experience, with strong focus on Linux system-level development. Proficiency in Linux package management systems (dpkg, RPM, yum, apt, zypper) and scripting languages such as Python or Bash. Experience with packaging standards, automation tools, and release workflows. Familiarity with kernel backporting, patch management, and driver installation (a plus). Excellent communication and collaboration skills with a customer-focused mindset. Strong debugging and troubleshooting skills, especially across varied Linux environments .     Ways to stand out from the crowd: MS in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field. Deep knowledge of Linux operating systems and distribution lifecycle management. Experience contributing to public Linux distributions or upstream projects. Familiarity with cloud or containerized environments (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes). Experience supporting large-scale deployment environments in data center or HPC settings.   NVIDIA is widely considered one of the most desirable employers in the tech world. We employ some of the most forward-thinking and talented individuals across the globe. If you're passionate about Linux systems, love solving real-world problems, and want to help shape the future of AI and networking infrastructure, we want to hear from you. Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is 124,000 USD - 195,500 USD for Level 2, and 152,000 USD - 241,500 USD for Level 3. You will also be eligible for equity and benefits .
