Job description

Join NVIDIA’s outstanding team and help us lead the next revolution in computing powered by artificial intelligence! As a Principal Product Manager for our Networking Platform Product Group, you will play a pivotal role in crafting the future of AI storage architectures. Located in Santa Clara, this outstanding opportunity allows you to work with industry‑leading technology and a world‑class team.

In this role, you'll direct NVIDIA's CMX (Context Memory Storage) and BlueField Storage platforms for the world's most fast‑paced storage and data‑center customers. Your work will define how next‑generation AI storage architectures connect to accelerated computing, developing the infrastructure behind AI, cloud, and enterprise workloads at global scale. At NVIDIA, you will become part of a diverse community driven by curiosity, creativity, and a common goal to impact the world. Our Networking Platform Product Group develops the ConnectX and BlueField products and solutions, which are key elements of NVIDIA's data‑center and AI strategy. The BlueField AI Native data platforms combine networking, storage, and compute. You will lead the product growth for this emerging platform portfolio.

What You'll Be Doing

• Manage the complete strategy and roadmap for BlueField storage platforms, encompassing NVIDIA's CMX product line, and expand it into a top‑tier, multi‑generation portfolio within the industry.
• Define the long‑term vision for BlueField storage platforms and CMX in data centers, transforming market trends, customer needs, and partner input into clear product requirements.
• Build positive relationships with customers and partners, understand their technical needs, and help build next‑generation storage architectures.
• Partner with engineering and architecture teams to prioritize features, navigate trade‑offs, and deliver products that excel in performance, scale, and reliability.
• Work with account teams, sales, and field engineering globally to drive adoption, support large deployments, and enhance business outcomes.

What We Need To See

• BS or MS, or equivalent experience, in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
• 15+ years of product management leadership in storage, semiconductors, or data‑center infrastructure, including senior or director‑level roles.
• Deep expertise in storage architectures, NVMe/NVMe‑oF, storage fabrics, SDS, and enterprise and cloud workloads.
• Direct experience with hyperscalers, strategic enterprise customers, and ecosystem partners, influencing direction and closing large deals.
• Strong executive presence, capable of participating in both engineering deep dives and C‑level discussions.
• Strong cross‑functional leadership, with the ability to bring engineering, sales, marketing, and partners into alignment without direct authority.
• US‑based and willing to travel.

Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd

• Product leadership experience in a storage fabric line at a storage vendor, hyperscaler, or silicon company.
• Established relationships with senior decision‑makers at leading storage OEMs, ISVs, and cloud providers.
• Track record of growing a single product into a broader portfolio spanning SKUs, software, and services.
• Familiarity with NVIDIA's BlueField, ConnectX, and DOCA ecosystem, and how accelerated networking fits into modern storage stacks.
