• Establish KPIs to quantitatively demonstrate program value and impact while proactively identifying, resolving, and mitigating risks affecting scope, schedule, and quality.
• Cultivate a culture of continuous improvement, consistently identifying opportunities for process enhancements within cloud infrastructure operations..
  

What we need to see:

• 8+ years of technical program management experience, specifically driving the planning and execution of large-scale cloud infrastructure programs with external partners, with a strong focus on software engineering projects within a matrixed organization.
• Extensive hands-on experience in cloud infrastructure, preferably gained from working at a major Cloud Service Provider (CSP).
• Domain knowledge in the bring-up and end to end operations of compute, storage and GPU (including common failure points at the HW and SW levels).
• Expert-level proficiency with Jira, Smartsheet, or similar program management tools, with the ability to confidently guide engineering teams on their use of the tools.
• Exceptional strategic and tactical thinking abilities, coupled with a strong capacity to build consensus and drive program success
• Comfort and effectiveness in thriving within ambiguous environments.
• Possess excellent communication and technical presentation skills, particularly for executive audiences.
• BS or MS in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science, or equivalent experience.
  

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• In-depth knowledge of NVIDIA GPU products, including deployment and bring-up, combined with deep familiarity with cloud-native product and services environments.
• Working knowledge of cloud technologies including Kubernetes, API integration, Terraform, and related tooling.
• Familiarity with AI and ML infrastructure, with an understanding of how NVIDIA’s deep learning platforms are applied across academic, startup, and enterprise environments.
