Our team is small, in-person, and high-velocity. We prototype and ship novel coding agents, fine-tune and evaluate code LLMs, publish benchmarks like ComputeEval, and contribute datasets that feed NVIDIA's Nemotron foundation models. We make NVIDIA's core developer tools — including Nsight Compute and Nsight Systems — first-class citizens for AI agents through MCP servers and Agent Skills.
