NVIDIA is looking for a talented and experienced Team Manager to join our CAD Sign-Off group, sitting at the intersection of CAD development and circuit engineering. Our team drives both the development of CAD flows and tools as well as circuit studies and design methodologies, supporting world-class silicon sign-off for NVIDIA's most advanced chips. The role combines internal development work with close collaboration across multiple NVIDIA groups worldwide. You will lead a team responsible for tracking and executing these activities end-to-end, ensuring quality, alignment, and delivery across all fronts. Come be part of a highly professional, impactful environment where your leadership shapes the way we design and sign off our chips.

What you'll be doing:

Own the tracking and execution of team activities spanning both internal CAD flow development and circuit-level studies and design methodologies.
Lead and coordinate engineers working across CAD sign-off, circuit analysis, and design methodology domains.
Drive collaboration with chip design teams, full-chip engineers, and other NVIDIA CAD and design groups globally, ensuring timely and high-quality sign-off convergence.
Serve as a key interface between the team and other NVIDIA groups, aligning priorities, sharing methodologies, and driving cross-group initiatives.
Identify risks and bottlenecks early, propose mitigation plans, and keep projects on track.
Foster a culture of ownership, technical excellence, and continuous improvement within the team.

What we need to see:

B.Sc./M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent experience.
8+ overall years of experience in engineering or software development, with a solid technical foundation in CAD, EDA, or circuit design environments.
3+ years of experience in team management roles in CAD or Backend design domains.
Proven ability to track, manage, and complete complex engineering activities across multiple workstreams.
Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and excellent written and verbal communication.
Demonstrated ability to work effectively both within a focused engineering team and in cross-group, cross-site collaborative settings.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

Background in circuit design or analysis — familiarity with sign-off domains such as STA, power integrity, IR-drop, or EM is a strong plus.
Prior experience in a formal management or team lead role.
Experience conducting or reviewing circuit studies, feasibility analyses, or design methodology evaluations.
Familiarity with EDA tools such as PrimeTime, RedHawk, or similar sign-off platforms.
Track record of successful collaboration across multiple engineering teams or organizations.

NVIDIA is widely considered to be one of the technology world’s most desirable employers. We have some of the most forward-thinking people in the world working for us. Are you a technically grounded leader who thrives at the crossroads of CAD and circuit engineering, and excels at building bridges across teams? Join us and make your mark on the sign-off flows powering NVIDIA's next generation of chips.
