Quantum computing is accelerating from lab to utility, and NVIDIA sits at the center of that shift. We are seeking a Senior Technical Program Manager to lead high-impact strategic R&D initiatives within quantum computing. You will lead across our applied research R&D roadmap to craft clarity and success. We are innovating groundbreaking techniques for quantum in AI and accelerated computing, so that useful fault-tolerant quantum computing arrives sooner. Partner across engineering, applied research, and product teams inside NVIDIA, and with external collaborators, you will build and operationalize innovation roadmaps that pioneer ahead. Success in this role includes outstanding program leadership, communication, and problem solving. If you're passionate about bringing quantum computing into the fault-tolerant era with accelerated computing, we would love to hear from you!

What you'll be doing:

• Initiate and lead multiple concurrent technical programs across our quantum computing portfolio, with emphasis on bringing the full power of accelerated computing to the field.

• Define clear execution plans and measurable outcomes from our R&D and technology roadmaps, then lown the work to success across teams.

• Identify & prioritize the most critical activities required for the research's success, and ensure that they are completed.

• Develop a strong technical understanding of our R&D priorities, to enable successful collaborations, and proactively identify new opportunities.

• Creatively solve and mitigate technical challenges, while establishing early risk identification and mitigations.

• Serve as a link between research and engineering, moving new technologies from incubation to scalable solutions.

What we need to see:

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Engineering, Physics, Applied Mathematics, or a related technical field.

• 10+ years of technical program management experience leading large-scale, cross-functional technology initiatives, including multiple sophisticated programs at once and execution alongside research, engineering, and technical leadership.

• Validated understanding of the quantum computing ecosystem and technologies, including hardware and software.

• Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to translate sophisticated technical concepts for a range of audiences.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Advanced degree (MS or PhD or equivalent) in quantum information science, physics, or a closely related field, or hands-on research or engineering experience inside a quantum program.

• Background in translating research output to developed technology.

• Familiarity with GPU-accelerated computing, HPC environments, or hybrid quantum-classical workflows and the tooling around them.

• Experience running joint technical programs with national laboratories, companies, universities, or research institutions.
