Overview

The Autonomous Vehicles (AV) team is seeking a highly motivated, highly technical Product and Program Management manager to lead and grow a rockstar team defining and building NVIDIA\'s self-driving software, enabling features from driver assistance to true hands-off autonomous driving. This role is responsible for core components of Nvidia\'s autonomous vehicle software (e.g., a portfolio of perception technology, planning technology, fusion, or mapping). It is a mixed role covering management of both technical product and program management and requires a deep understanding of the technical aspects of the components and how they relate to the driving experience to identify the right problems for teams to work on. You will work with leading experts to design, prioritize and deliver solutions for these problems. From there you will build the right processes and drive execution, supporting teams to deliver against our goals. You will be the representative for the progress of these workstreams with senior executives. Ultimately you will need to develop a high performing team which can define and deliver against the highly ambitious technology product roadmaps for the future of self-driving vehicles. What you\'ll be doing

Hands on leadership of a team coordinating projects, partnering with tech leads to understand and solve complex self-driving challenges.

Drive and be responsible for delivery of your technology portfolios, in partnership with your engineering leader counterparts.
