An era in which our GPU acts as the brains of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can understand the world. Doing what’s never been done before takes vision, innovation, and the world’s best talent. As an NVIDIAN, you’ll be immersed in a diverse, supportive environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact on the world.

We are seeking an accomplished engineering manager to lead the teams building secure, scalable CI/CD infrastructure for NVIDIA’s accelerated computing platform.

What You Will Be Doing

• Grow and develop a world-class, geographically distributed team.
• Plan, schedule, mentor, and lead the execution of projects and activities of the team.
• Collaborate with engineering teams, program and product management, and partners to define the product roadmap.
• Continuously review and identify improvement opportunities in established processes, infrastructure, and practices to ensure the teams are performing in the most efficient and open manner.
• Own and drive efficiency, reliability, security, performance, and compliance across the infrastructure.
• Establish strong relationships and trust through excellent execution and high quality of software development, working closely with cross-functional teams.

What We Need To See

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience.
• 8+ overall years of industry experience and 3+ years of relevant software engineering management experience leading large complex system software projects.
• Deep understanding of open-source contribution workflows, including managing private and public repositories, forks, mirrors, pull requests, and automated validation gates, artifact repositories, and audit logs at scale.
• Experience building developer tooling that balances robust internal security (e.g., scanners, sandbox execution environments, network isolation) with seamless external community contributions.
• Experience with DevOps tools such as GitHub Actions, GitLab, Buildkite, Ansible, and Terraform.
• Deep experience architecting, provisioning, and scaling underlying CI/CD infrastructure (e.g., self-hosted runners, dynamic compute clusters, or container orchestration platforms).
• Demonstrated ability to work across organizations at all levels and experience balancing multiple projects with competing priorities.

Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd

• Strong track-record of technical leadership.
• Experience with agentic AI frameworks and patterns.
• Strong background in the development of accelerated computing software.
• Track record of significant technical and leadership contributions to open-source software and community.
