About the role#
NVIDIA is looking for a GenAI Algorithms Intern to join the Algorithmic Model Optimization Team. You will focus on optimizing generative AI models, including large language models, vision-language models, and diffusion models, to improve inference efficiency. Your work will involve software-hardware co-design to balance accuracy and performance. You will operate across the AI software stack, from algorithm design to integration with frameworks like PyTorch, NeMo, and TensorRT-LLM.
What you'll do#
- Design and build modular, scalable model optimization software platforms.
- Explore, develop, and integrate deep learning optimization algorithms such as quantization, pruning, and neural architecture search.
- Deploy optimized models into open-source inference frameworks and contribute new features or specialized APIs.
- Collaborate with internal teams to provide model optimization solutions for specific customer use cases.
- Conduct GPU kernel-level profiling to identify and implement optimization opportunities.
What you'll need#
- Currently pursuing a Master's or PhD in Computer Science, AI, Applied Math, or a related field.
- A strong background in deep learning and hands-on experience with language models.
- A solid foundation in algorithms and programming.
- Proficiency in Python, PyTorch, and modern machine learning tools.
- Good written and verbal communication skills.
Location & details#
- This is a full-time, remote internship position.
- The internship follows a rolling term schedule.

How to get in at NVIDIA
Applying early gives you a distinct advantage at NVIDIA because recruiters review applications as they arrive. Intern Insider sends an instant alert the moment a role matching your target is published, so you can apply among the first before the pile grows. Getting your resume in front of a human early is often the difference between a screening call and a rejection. You can use Intern Insider to surface the recruiters behind NVIDIA roles to reach out directly. Asking a recruiter about the role or a referral materially improves your response rates compared to submitting into a general queue. It is a simple way to make your application stand out in a competitive process.
