Manager Nvidia Robotics Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Join our Deep Learning Engineering team within NVIDIA's Tegra Solutions Engineering organization, where we deliver production-quality deep learning solutions for autonomous vehicles and robotics on edge hardware. As a key member of our team, you'll lead a group of highly skilled engineers. We work at the intersection of modern model architectures, compiler technology, and embedded deployment. Application areas include end-to-end autonomous driving, vision-language-action models, multi-camera perception, and robotic foundation models. You'll define and drive strategic technical initiatives, working directly with automotive OEMs and robotics partners to solve their toughest optimization challenges on NVIDIA DRIVE and Jetson platforms. You'll coordinate extensively with NVIDIA Research, hardware, and compiler teams to advance the state-of-the-art in deep learning for physical AI!

What you'll be doing:

• Lead and develop a team of deep learning engineers delivering inference optimization and model enablement solutions for automotive and robotics customers.

• Drive end-to-end technical engagements with OEM partners, owning scoping, resource allocation, and delivery of production-quality solutions.

• Set technical direction on how modern architectures (transformers, vision-language models, state space models) are optimized and deployed on GPU and SOC platforms.

• Partner with compiler, runtime, and hardware teams to connect customer workload patterns with platform capabilities and roadmap priorities.

• Collaborate with NVIDIA Research and internal deep learning teams to bring brand new techniques into production!

• Represent NVIDIA externally at partner reviews, conferences, and industry forums.

What we need to see:

• Master's degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.

• 8+ years of overall experience with at least 5 years in deep learning model optimization, inference engineering, or neural network compilation.

• 4+ years of team leadership experience

• Proven ability to manage concurrent technical customer engagements and deliver under production constraints.

• Strong knowledge of current DL architectures and inference optimization toolchains (TensorRT or equivalent).

• Excellent communication skills with the ability to engage credibly with both OEM engineering leadership and deep technical ICs.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Experience leading DL optimization teams in the autonomous vehicle or robotics domain with direct OEM or Tier-1 engagement.

• Background in training pipeline optimization, curriculum design, or end-to-end autonomous driving architectures.

• Experience with ML compiler frameworks (TVM, MLIR, XLA, Triton) or inference runtime development.

• Familiarity with automotive safety standards (ISO 26262, SOTIF) and their implications for inference system design.

• Track record of building engineering teams in growing competitive talent markets and experience with Agentic AI frameworks, tools, and protocols like LangChain, LangGraph, MCP or equivalent experience

The Deep Learning Engineering team within Tegra Solutions Engineering sits at the intersection of NVIDIA's most advanced AI technology and the customers. We work end-to-end: from architecture decisions with OEM engineering leadership, through optimization and deployment on DRIVE and Jetson platforms, to production vehicles and robots operating in the field. Our engineers engage directly with the world's leading automotive and robotics companies, solving problems that span next-generation network architectures, training infrastructure, inference optimization, and closed-loop simulation. We collaborate closely with NVIDIA Research, various NVIDIA AI teams, and hardware teams. The team is growing, and we are investing in building out our presence across multiple sites. If you want your work to ship on real autonomous systems and shape the platforms they run on, this is the team to join.

Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is 224,000 USD - 356,500 USD for Level 3, and 272,000 USD - 431,250 USD for Level 4.Applications for this job will be accepted at least until April 26, 2026.
