I applied through other source. I interviewed at NVIDIA
Interview
The process was pretty straightforward. I did a 4-round interview.
The first was with the Manager of my team. The interview was an overview of my background. He was so kind and we had a really good feeling. He detailed me what are the problems that the team was tackling. One day later, they sent me an e-mail that I will move forward in the process. So, we scheduled two more interviews with employees of my future team.
The second one was with a Senior Solutions Architect which was supposed to work with me. He got deep in the technical part of my background. We went barely point by point in my CV discussing the algorithms and techniques that I used and why. He also was so close and kind.
The third one had a role based in Business and Sales. He was responsible to talk with the client and see if it was suitable for the team. We discussed more my personality and experience with treating clients. On the other hand, he asked me if I was okay with traveling for work and visiting clients (not just code). After this interview, they sent me an e-mail telling my that I move forward to the last online interview.
I fourth was with the National Principal Solution Architect. This one was hard, he asked me things about hardware, architecture, deep learning, machine learning, personality, and background.
I had the feeling that all of them went really well. Just for how was the connection with all of them and also for their non-verbal language.
They ended up rejecting me for my visa situation. I am from Barcelona, Spain and this position was in NYC. They needed somebody for that month, but US didn't issue working visas until late 2020. However, It was a great experience and so insightful. Heads-up for this company.
How would you allocate two GPUs in a motherboard if you have 4 slots? Explain to me how the computer process the algorithms through this configuration.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at NVIDIA (Washington, DC) in Feb 2026
Interview
The process is very long and there is no feedback of any kind. Even once you have completed one panel interview (there were 6 for me), there is no communication from the recruiters. 3 or 4 or 5 weeks go by and crickets. Emotionally taxing trying to balance wanting to work at Nvidia and also trying to consider other jobs and companies.

Question 1
How would you describe __ technology to a non-technical person?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at NVIDIA in Sep 2024
Interview
There are a total of seven interview rounds, all of which are technical. Even the discussions with leadership are technical, so be well-prepared. The topics range from detailed architecture discussions to deploying LLM models in a cost-effective manner. I found that taking the Mastering LLM interview preparation course helped me a lot.
