Technical Program Manager -Local AI Agents

Artificial intelligence is moving from passive assistance to agents that can reason, use tools, and complete work on a person's device.

NVIDIA is building the software foundation that helps developers and partners deliver these experiences privately, efficiently, and responsibly across GeForce RTX, NVIDIA RTX PRO, RTX Spark, DGX Spark, and DGX Station systems.

We seek a Senior Technical Program Manager to lead multi-functional initiatives involving local and hybrid AI agents.

You will unite engineering, research, product, security, developer relations, and external collaborators behind a clear roadmap and measurable results.

Your responsibilities include local model inference, agent runtimes, Windows integration, developer tools, security controls, and user experiences.

Additionally, you will gather insights from open ecosystems like Hermes and OpenClaw, desktop-agent projects such as Perplexity, and domain-specific agents to guide NVIDIA’s focus on developer and user priorities.

What you'll be doing:

• Own the coordinated roadmap from prototype through release for local AI agent capabilities, with clear scope, achievements, owners, dependencies, and completion criteria.
• Translate product goals and ecosystem signals into harmonized plans covering agent frameworks, MCP and tool connections, memory and skills, computer use, local inference, model routing, and application integration.
• Partner with engineering and research teams to define evaluation and release gates for task success, latency, efficiency, memory use, power, reliability, setup time, privacy, and user trust.
• Coordinate programs across Windows platform groups, GPU and driver groups, model and runtime groups, product security, developer relations, Microsoft, OEMs, ISVs, and open-source communities.
• Build concise dashboards and decision forums that surface program health, technical tradeoffs, risks, and evidence; communicate clearly with engineers and senior leaders.
• Use developer and customer feedback to improve onboarding, documentation, samples, compatibility, and adoption across supported NVIDIA systems.

What we need to see:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience in practice.
• 8+ years leading complex software, platform, systems, or AI/ML programs from concept through production release.
• Technical proficiency in contemporary AI software stacks, encompassing model prediction, agent coordination, tool application, evaluation, and local or hybrid deployment.
