Senior Technical Product Manager – AI Agents — San Francisco

NVIDIA is the defining technology company of the AI era. We are looking for a Senior Technical Product Manager to lead NeMo Relay, an open-source library that helps developers observe and control what happens inside agent runs, without replacing the frameworks, models, or tools they already use. Our team builds open-source libraries and reference architectures for agentic AI, including NeMo Relay, NeMo Fabric, and NemoClaw. We go to market through the ecosystem: our software is composed to be embedded into agent frameworks, developer tools, observability platforms, and third-party solutions, helping customers build agents that are safer, more observable, and more efficient on NVIDIA’s stack. What you'll be doing: • Take charge of the vision, strategy, and multi-release roadmap for NeMo Relay as a framework-neutral library partners can embed, addressing lifecycle events, middleware, plugins, policy, observability, and adaptive performance tuning. • Drive adoption through integrations with agent frameworks, coding-agent harnesses, observability vendors, and ISVs, and build the examples that show developers how to use Relay in real systems. • Partner with the teams behind NeMo Guardrails, NeMo Fabric, NeMo Compass and OpenShell to make Relay work seamlessly with their components. • Turn open-source community and ecosystem feedback into prioritized product decisions. • Work with engineering and program management to plan releases and keep roadmap communications accurate. • Become a recognized voice in agent observability, safety, and optimization through talks, content, and community engagement. What we need to see: • Deep familiarity with the AI agent landscape: open-source frameworks, coding agents and harnesses, and commercial agent platforms. • Proven understanding of agent execution, including LLM calls, tool calls, and multi-agent workflows. • Understanding of what developers need to operate agents in production: tracing, evaluation, guardrails, and cost and performance tuning. • Product management background on developer-facing libraries, SDKs, or infrastructure that other companies build on. • Proven track record to lead product direction in ambiguous, fast paced areas and to influence engineering, ecosystem, and leadership partners without direct authority. • BS or MS in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent experience. • 8+ years of combined work in software development, ML ops, and/or technical product management, including 5+ years shipping enterprise software or infrastructure. Ways to stand out from the crowd: • History of taking an open-source project from early releases to broad ecosystem adoption. • Track record of ecosystem-led go-to-market, such as integrations, co-engineering, or embedding into third-party products. • Hands-on familiarity with OpenTelemetry, OpenInference, or agent tracing and evaluation tools. • Ability to make exceptional runtime concepts simple for both developers and executives. Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and other objective job-related factors. The expected base salary ranges for this position are: 168,000 USD – 258,750 USD for Level 4; and 208,000 USD – 327,750 USD for Level 5. You will also be eligible for equity and benefits . Applications for this job will be accepted at least until November 13, 2026. This posting is for an existing vacancy.  NVIDIA uses AI tools in its recruiting processes.
