Job description

from Nvidia careers

NVIDIA is seeking a strong technology leader to manage our Server Software Technical Program Management (TPM) team. This role is at the cross-section of execution and strategy, leading a team of Senior TPMs who drive the firmware and system software for NVIDIA's next-generation server platforms like DGX, MGX, and HGX. These platforms bring together the full power of NVIDIA GPUs, NVLink, InfiniBand networking, Grace CPUs, and our optimized AI/HPC software stack. This deep technical leadership role focused on the Software Development Processes that brings new server hardware to life.

What you'll be doing:

  • Lead a team of TPMs driving the technical software and firmware execution for NVIDIA's NPI (New Product Introduction) and sustaining engineering teams.

  • Drive the end-to-end SDLC for low-level server components, including firmware (BMC, UEFI/BIOS), drivers, and system management software, ensuring alignment with hardware schedules.

  • Collaborate closely with NVIDIA product management and hardware engineering teams to define release plans and program objectives.

  • Build a strong connection and feedback loop between sustaining and NPI engineering teams to improve product quality and development velocity.

  • Lead process improvement initiatives and help propagate SDLC standards across multiple engineering and TPM organizations.

  • You will have the opportunity to interact with diverse technical groups, spanning all organizational levels.
