What we need to see: B.Sc. degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field. 3+ years of experience in a leadership or management role, leading software or hardware validation/test engineering teams. 7+ years of overall experience in network validation, network testing, or systems verification. Proven track record of building and executing test automation strategies for network or distributed systems at scale, with hands-on background in Python-based automation. Strong understanding of regression analysis methodologies — ability to drive actionable conclusions from large-scale test result datasets and translate them into engineering improvements. Demonstrated ability to collaborate cross-functionally with architecture, design, and product teams in a fast-paced, multi-timezone environment. Strong verbal and written communication skills, with experience presenting validation strategies and quality metrics to senior leadership. Ways to stand out from the crowd: Deep understanding of networking protocols and architectures (e.g., BGP, EVPN, VXLAN, RDMA/RoCE, Ethernet, IP routing, L2/L3 switching). Experience with network simulation or emulation environments (e.g., Containerlab, GNS3, SONiC testbeds, or equivalent platforms) and the ability to guide teams in leveraging them effectively. Experience managing validation of data center networking solutions or hyperscale network environments (spine-leaf, fat-tree, or Clos topologies). Familiarity with NVIDIA networking products — BlueField DPUs, ConnectX NICs, Spectrum switches, or the DOCA software stack. Prior experience with customer-facing solution validation or translating customer use cases into structured simulation and test scenarios. With competitive salaries and a generous benefits package, NVIDIA is widely recognized as one of the technology world's most desirable employers. We have some of the most forward-thinking and ha
