Support hardware product legal workstreams, including IP development and licensing, product regulatory matters, and other strategic deals and technology transactions.

Provide concise, strategic advice to senior leaders on IP, product, and regulatory issues influencing NVIDIA's roadmap.

Draft, review, and negotiate hardware-focused or technology transaction agreements, including strategic supply, licensing, collaboration, and co-development deals.

Develop and maintain templates, playbooks, and mentorship for collaborations and inbound IP transactions to enable efficient, scalable deal execution.

What we need to see:

8-12 years of relevant legal experience, including substantial time at a major law firm and in-house experience supporting a leading technology or hardware company.

Strong understanding of IP issues in hardware and embedded software, including ownership, licensing structures, and risk allocation.

Ability to negotiate and lead high-stakes, complex agreements with suppliers, customers, and ecosystem partners.

Excellent communication skills and good judgment with the ability to offer practical, business-forward advice to senior leaders.

J.D. from an accredited U.S. law school and a strong academic record. Admitted to the bar and in good standing in the jurisdiction of hire, or otherwise authorized to practice law, such as registered in-house status.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

At least 4 years of pertinent in-house experience at a top semiconductor or other hardware company.

Self-starter who excels at leading projects, prioritizing tasks, and working collaboratively with diverse collaborators.

Subject-matter expertise in one or more of the following areas: inbound IP sourcing, hardware collaborations, co-development agreements, and complex licensing deals.

Prior litigation and clerkship experience, an engineering degree, or equivalent experience are a plus.
