What if your Python automation caught a critical ASIC bug before the physical silicon was even manufactured? At NVIDIA, our simulation platforms make that happen every release cycle! We are the System Ethernet QA Team at NVIDIA's R&D center, responsible for the testing and qualification of virtual networking silicon (SimX) and software—from L2 forwarding and L3 routing to overlays, QoS, and security. With SimX, developers and QA engineers get hardware-free, early access to the ASIC for better debugging.We are looking for a Senior QA Software Engineer who combines network protocol expertise with strong Python automation skills. Does debugging a BGP EVPN route leak excite you as much as refactoring a test framework?
