About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Develop and maintain deep technical expertise in software products (Splunk, AppDynamics, ThousandEyes, AI Defense).
Serve as the trusted technical advisor, problem solver, and champion for developers in observability, security operations, and AI platforms.
Partner with cross-functional teams to drive adoption of libraries within those technologies.
Accelerate critical workloads by demonstrating and integrating the NVIDIA software stack (APIs, SDKs, data integrations, apps, and reference architectures) into partner products, platforms, and pipelines.
Guide partners and developers through onboarding and integration by providing technical resources—such as sample code, guides, and demo pipelines—to accelerate adoption across NVIDIA’s platform and foster co-innovation of next-generation solutions.
Map and monitor the developer ecosystem to identify growth opportunities, collaborating with engineering, product management, and marketing to inform roadmaps and optimize partner adoption strategies.
Engage partner technical leaders to drive best-practice integrations and resolve technical challenges, using regular syncs to track adoption, surface new workflows, and channel critical field insights back to NVIDIA product teams.
Grow and activate developer communities around accelerated software — representing co-engineered products at conferences, meetups, and hackathons and delivering technical talks and hands-on workshops.
Drive API, SDK, and integration adoption across Splunk and the broader software ecosystem, championing the developer experience end-to-end.
Surface developer sentiment and ecosystem trends, translating them into actionable intelligence that informs product direction and platform strategy.
