NVIDIA has been transforming computer graphics, PC gaming, and accelerated computing for more than 25 years. It’s a unique legacy of innovation that’s fueled by great technology—and amazing people. Today, we’re tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing. 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.

NVIDIA is hiring a Senior Manager and proven leader to run the programs at the heart of how we attract world‑class talent. You'll lead a high‑performing team and drive the strategy behind our Employee Referrals Program, Recruiting Learning Center, LinkedIn presence, and "Insider Chats". Success in this role requires more than operational expertise; it demands the ability to encourage teams, align diverse stakeholders, and influence senior leaders across a sophisticated, matrixed global organization. You are a builder, a mentor, and a strategic partner who gets things done through people.

What You’ll be doing:

• Lead, mentor, and grow a team of program managers and specialists setting a high bar for excellence, collaboration, and accountability
• Drive strategy and execution for NVIDIA's core recruiting programs at global scale, owning outcomes end to end!
• Influence without authority partnering across Recruiting, HR, Marketing, Finance, and business leaders to align programs with company priorities and gain buy‑in at every level
• Navigate a matrixed environment with confidence, building trust and momentum across teams that don't report to you
• Manage NVIDIA's LinkedIn presence and employer brand to attract top talent worldwide
• Scale "Insider Chats" and the "Recruiting Learning Center" to enable recruiters, hiring managers, and candidates to show up at their best
• Grow the Employee Referrals Program into a high‑quality, inclusive pipeline engine
• Define clear success metrics, build dashboards, and use data to drive continuous improvement
• Work with HR Tech to ensure programs integrate seamlessly with Workday and NVIDIA's recruiting tech stack
• Manage budgets, vendors, and external partners with a focus on ROI and long‑term value

What we need to see:

• 12+ years in recruiting operations, talent acquisition, or HR program management, with significant leadership experience running large, multi-program portfolios
• 5+ years of management experience
• Demonstrated success leading and developing teams — crafting a culture of high performance, trust, and shared ownership with proven ability to influence senior stakeholders and drive alignment across a large, matrixed organization without direct authority
• Track record of delivering measurable results on global recruiting programs — referrals, candidate engagement, recruiter enablement, and employer brand
• Strong command of LinkedIn recruiting tools and employer branding strategy!
• Data‑driven approach to leading all aspects of programs, with experience building critical metrics and translating insights into action
• Outstanding communication skills — able to present to executives, rally cross‑functional teams, and advocate for your programs with clarity and credibility
• Comfortable with AI tools and enthusiastic about putting them to work
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
• Experience in a high‑growth tech company, particularly near engineering, AI/ML, or hardware teams
• Familiarity with enterprise recruiting platforms like Workday
• Demonstrates strong dedication to inclusive hiring and developing programs that reflect this across regions and functions. Thrives in a culture of transparency, flat access, and shared learning. Knows how to build programs that support these values.
