Job description

NVIDIA is seeking a manager to lead a team focused on developing systems and algorithms that extract intelligence from extensive consumer data for autonomous driving. This role involves guiding elite engineering and data teams across Europe and the United States. The main focus is on architecting and operationalizing NVIDIA's in-car curation strategy to enhance AI training and performance. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in the autonomous vehicle ecosystem and a passion for innovation in AI.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of overall industry experience including 4+ years in technical leadership.
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience.
  • Demonstrated success leading data-focused teams in the autonomous vehicle or robotics domain.
  • Hands-on experience with VLMs, LLMs, or multimodal AI systems applied to perception, data triage, or automated labeling.
  • Prior experience in the autonomous vehicle ecosystem including perception, mapping, robotics, ADAS/AD, or AV data workflows.
  • Strong communication, careful planning, and technical leadership capabilities.

Responsibilities

  • Lead, encourage, and develop elite engineering and data teams distributed across Europe and the United States.
  • Architect and operationalize NVIDIA's in-car curation strategy to power AI training and simulation.
  • Invent and deploy new algorithms that mine, classify, and surface valuable driving scenarios from customer cars.
  • Champion data quality and metadata standards to accelerate development and improve safety and performance.

Benefits

  • Employees at NVIDIA are often offered comprehensive, day-one benefits—including medical, dental, and vision coverage with HSA support, life and disability insurance, an Employee Assistance Program, and a 401(k) with auto-enrollment. Many roles also have generous time off and holidays, donation matching (up to $10,000), and a wide menu of extras like FSAs, commuter benefits, legal and identity-theft protection, pet insurance, and wellness discounts. Optional programs can include student-loan and home-purchase support, plus family care resources and expert medical services.
