About the Team OpenAI’s Hardware organization develops AI-native silicon and system-level solutions for the unique demands of advanced AI workloads. Building on efforts like Jalapeño, the team is developing future generations of AI-native silicon and tightly integrated systems to power the next generation of frontier models. By co-designing chips, systems, tools, and methodologies, the team helps deliver faster, more efficient, and production-ready hardware for OpenAI’s supercomputing platform. About the Role As a Supply Chain Program Manager, you will own material readiness and supply chain execution for critical hardware programs spanning custom silicon, systems, memory, storage, networking, and rack infrastructure. You will work cross-functionally with Engineering, Strategic Sourcing, Manufacturing Operations, Finance, Planning, Quality, and external suppliers to develop and execute scalable supply strategies that support aggressive product development and deployment timelines. This role requires deep understanding of hardware supply chains, material planning, NPI execution, supplier management, and operational scaling in constrained and rapidly evolving environments. In this role you will: Material Readiness & Supply Planning - Own end-to-end material readiness across NPI and production phases, including building the necessary framework and processes for enablement. Drive supply planning and execution for long lead-time and constrained commodities including ASICs, HBM, DDR, SSDs, networking, optics, power, thermal, and mechanicals. Build and manage material readiness plans aligned to proto/pre-EVT, EVT, DVT, PVT, and mass production schedules. Monitor supply health, lead times, inventory positions, allocation risk, and capacity constraints. Drive shortage management, allocation mitigation, and recovery planning. Coordinate supply commits, forecast alignment, and supply continuity planning with suppliers and manufacturing partners. Cross-Functional Program Ma

The Silicon Co-Design Group (SCG) sits at the crossroads of architecture, design, marketing, operations, and productization. Our work spans early architecture through final product delivery across Datacenter, Gaming, Robotics, Automotive, and Embedded markets. We work closely across functions to deliver chips that change what is possible. System Integration sits at the intersection of all of them. It is the layer where every architecture, design, software, and manufacturing decision meets reality. When something breaks late in a program, it usually breaks here first. We are hiring a Senior Manager to lead this team in the US and partner closely with teams globally. Your work will sit on the critical path of every NVIDIA silicon program, and the bar you set for system integration is the bar we ship to! The two hardest, highest-leverage problems in this seat: Find critical silicon issues earlier — often before software is production-ready. Left-shifting post-silicon coverage is the highest-value thing System Integration can do. Standing up wide-area testing as a repeatable capability is a core part of the role. Keep programs on milestone when upstream dependencies slip. Validation plans collide with reality every program! The team needs new strategies, not just contingency plans, to keep moving when software, firmware, or methodology slip. You will design and run those strategies. What you’ll be doing: Plan and execute post-silicon feature integration, PVT validation, and wide-area testing across NVIDIA’s GPU, SoC, and CPU programs. Build wide-area and in-system test as a repeatable capability that shifts post-silicon coverage left, so issues surface before we are production-ready. Lead resolution of the most complex system-level issues, RMAs, and HW/SW interaction problems with creative workarounds and focused lab experimentation. Deve

Our work spans early architecture through final product delivery across Datacenter, Gaming, Robotics, Automotive, and Embedded markets. We work closely across functions to deliver chips that change what is possible. NVIDIA’s Silicon Co-Design Group is hiring a Chip Lead to serve as the technical lead for one of our most consequential silicon programs! This is not project management, and it is not a senior IC role. You are the person the program partners with on its hardest technical questions — when the right answer is not obvious, and when leadership needs a single technical perspective to align on direction. You are accountable for the technical integrity of the chip end-to-end. You guide co-design feature integration, help resolve the toughest multi-functional bugs, and serve as the project-specific custodian of the qualification playbook. The program runs cleaner because you are on it! What you’ll be doing: You will partner across design, validation, software, and manufacturing to keep the program’s technical narrative clear and on track. Day to day, you will: Serve as the single technical point of contact for multi-functional decisions, issues, and trade-offs. Co-lead program-level feature integration from chip to system, surfacing inter-function dependencies and guiding them to resolution. Help resolve the program’s hardest multi-functional bugs by translating ambiguous, multi-team symptoms into root-cause closure on areas such as HBM, power and thermal, high-speed I/O, and packaging. Steward the qualification playbook. When the playbook does not fit a situation, guide the mitigations and capture the lessons as reusable methodology for other SSG programs. Shape the program’s technical narrative by surfacing key risks, trade
