The Morpheus team empowers cybersecurity workflows by developing the Morpheus SDK, enabling customers to create high-throughput, low-latency pipelines with an intuitive and scalable package. Leveraging the integrated NVIDIA hardware/software stack, we deliver innovative solutions which enable cybersecurity ecosystems in their creation of detection, alerting, and observability systems. We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to help drive the development of Morpheus, an open-source cybersecurity streaming SDK. In this role, you will be at the forefront of integrating innovative AI/ML technologies, including large language models (LLMs), to solve sophisticated cybersecurity challenges. You will work on building and optimizing high-performance streaming SDKs, scaling them for large-scale deployments, and collaborating with experts across various fields to transition proof-of-concept tools to production-ready frameworks. Together we will advance NVIDIA's capability to build and deploy core frameworks, revolutionizing cybersecurity applications for our customers.

What you'll be doing:

• Develop and optimize C++ and Python-based SDKs and frameworks, which provide efficient, GPU-accelerated computation in an easily usable package

• Design and implement high-throughput and low-latency streaming pipelines which integrate the latest AI/ML/LLM models

• Scale cybersecurity workflows to support large-scale deployments for organizations processing terabytes of data daily

• Lead efforts in designing modern, easy-to-use APIs for complex libraries

• Collaborate closely with data scientists, AI researchers, and industry experts to bring innovative cybersecurity solutions into production

What we need to see:

• BS or MS (or equivalent experience) in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a closely related field

• 8+ years of proven experience in Artificial Intelligence, Applied Math, Data Science, or related field

• Proficient in both C++ and Python, with a consistent track record of building modern SDKs or applications

• Deep understanding of high-performance parallel computing, with experience in multi-threaded or multi-process environments

• Ability to quickly learn and apply new technologies and libraries

• Self-starter with a proactive attitude, capable of working independently and effectively within a team

• Excellent interpersonal skills, essential for collaboration with cross-functional teams

• Strong desire to work on the cutting edge of technology in a rapidly evolving environment

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Experience with asynchronous programming (e.g., C++ coroutines, Python asyncio, Boost fibers) with familiarity with AI frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow) and NVIDIA technologies (e.g., CUDA, TensorRT, Triton)

• Knowledge of RAPIDS libraries (cuDF, cuML, RMM) and LLM libraries (LangChain, llama-index, Haystack)

• Experience with distributed frameworks (e.g., Ray, Dask, Spark) and communication frameworks (e.g., gRPC, nats.io, Kafka)

• Demonstrated history of contributing to open-source software projects, including C++ and Python projects

• Experience developing for GPU platforms and understanding of GPU architecture with previous real-world experience developing software for cybersecurity use cases or crafting and implementing architectures that apply to data at large scales (TB+)
