We’re looking for a technical architecture expert with hands-on development experience to define the architecture of the Retail and Consumer Packaged Goods Platform and collaborate with engineering to build the platform. This is a technical engineering role and requires familiarity with NVIDIA’s GPU acceleration libraries, experience in Retail, CPG, logistics, or marketplaces, and knowledge of enterprise AI architectures will make you an ideal candidate.

Join us and take the lead in building the retail platform and help us develop the future of AI in retail! Your mission is to leverage NVIDIA’s existing retail and supply chain blueprints, along with proven workflows and best practices codified through customers and ISV engagements, to define the architecture and build the Retail & CPG platform. You will be responsible for architecting and collaborating with engineering teams across NVIDIA, to build the platform. Built on NVIDIA’s full stack—including Agentic AI, Physical AI, and accelerated computing—this platform will power our three strategic pillars: digital commerce, supply chain, and intelligent stores.
