Software Engineer, Build and Release - NVIDIA OpenShell

NVIDIA is defining the next era of computing by tapping into the unlimited potential of AI, where GPUs power computers, robots, autonomous systems, and AI agents. Joining the OpenShell team offers a unique opportunity to own the build, packaging, release, and CI/CD foundation for a sophisticated platform that provides secure, sandboxed runtimes for autonomous AI agents. OpenShell includes a control-plane gateway, privacy-conscious inference router, declarative policy engine, container and VM-based sandbox execution, GPU support, Helm deployments, multi-architecture artifacts, and public developer install flows. This role is for an engineer who wants to make the system reliable from source code to shipped artifact. What You’ll Be Doing : Own and evolve OpenShell’s CI/CD system across GitHub Actions, self-hosted Linux amd64/arm64 runners, GPU runners, macOS runners, reusable workflows, gated e2e jobs, release canaries, and developer-facing branch checks. Build and harden multi-architecture release pipelines for GHCR images, Helm OCI charts, Linux and macOS CLI binaries, gateway and sandbox binaries, Python wheels, Debian packages, RPM packages, Homebrew formula generation, and install scripts. Improve release reliability for both rolling dev builds and tagged public releases, including version derivation, automatic tagging, checksums, artifact pruning, provenance, artifact attestations, and downstream package publishing. Drive reproducible and performant builds using mise , uv , Cargo, maturin, BuildKit, Docker/Podman, sccache, native amd64/arm64 runners, Zig, osxcross, protobuf codegen, and pinned toolchains. Own the quality gates that decide whether code is safe to merge or ship, including Rust/Python checks, license headers, markdown/docs validation, e2e label gates, Docker/Podman e2e, Kubernetes/Helm e2e, GPU e2e, and release canary coverage. Debug difficult build and release failures across containers, registries, runners, package managers, cross-compilation tool...
