Join NVIDIA as an Engineer in Network Procurement and Provisioning, where you'll be part of a dedicated team at the forefront of technology. Our diverse and high-reaching group collaborates to develop innovation, ensuring seamless delivery in every project. As we expand our network capabilities, you'll play a crucial role in supporting our growth and maintaining our world-class standards!

What you'll be doing:

• Support network capacity planning efforts for subsea cable capacity, terrestrial IRUs, and other long-haul and metro connectivity assets.

• Assist in reviewing vendor proposals, pricing, and technical specifications for backbone and edge connectivity.

• Work with network architecture to translate development requirements into concrete capacity and route requests.

• Coordinate data gathering and documentation needed for commercial negotiations and contract execution.

• Drive and track provisioning workflows for new and upgraded circuits, ensuring accurate implementation and documentation in inventory systems.

What we need to see:

• 7-10 years ofexperience in telecommunications, network engineering, or network capacity/procurement roles.

• Familiarity with long-haul and metro connectivity concepts, including subsea systems, dark fiber, and IRU/lease models.

• Understanding of optical networking, backbone routing, and basic capacity planning principles.

• Experience working with carriers or infrastructure providers, or supporting vendor management processes.

• Strong analytical and interpersonal skills, with the ability to manage multiple circuit orders and provisioning tasks in parallel.

• Ability to collaborate effectively with engineering, operations, finance, and legal partners.

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Telecommunications, or a related field, or equivalent experience in practice.

Ways To Stand Out from the Crowd:

• Hands-on experience with subsea capacity or dark fiber procurement and turn-up.

• Exposure to hyperscale or cloud-scale backbone networks and related planning tools.

• Experience with network inventory, ordering, or workflow systems (e.g., circuit databases, provisioning tools, or OSS).

• Demonstrated ability to analyze cost, performance, and resiliency trade-offs for network routes and capacity options.

• Strong documentation habits and comfort building runbooks, trackers, and process playbooks.
