Data analytics is one of the highest-value arenas for CPU performance, and we need someone to own NVIDIA's strategy and value proposition there! This role sits at the nexus of go-to-market, software architecture, platform architecture, performance measurement, and competitive positioning — making it a true workload strategy role, not a benchmark-running one. From TPC-H and TPC-DS methodologies to collaborative solutions with the world's leading database and analytics vendors, the scope is broad and the impact is real. We're looking for a product manager who deeply understands how CPUs win in practice and can turn that insight into roadmap decisions, customer proof points, and field-ready positioning. **What you'll be doing:** - Taking responsibility for the workload and market approach for data analytics and data processing on NVIDIA data center CPUs — identifying priority workloads, customer scenarios, and the benchmarks and proof points that should guide the roadmap. - Leading the complete lifecycle of benchmarks like TPC-H and TPC-DS: methodology, cluster and benchmarking architecture, competitive analysis, and market positioning. - Translating disk, cache, memory, I/O, clustering, availability, and software behavior into concrete CPU, platform, and system requirements. Then advising architecture and platform teams on what to build and why. - Building the quantitative value proposition across performance, infrastructure, software licensing, power, and TCO to position NVIDIA CPUs against challenging architectures. - Working alongside external ISVs, database and analytics vendors, cloud providers, and strategic customers to verify requirements and build joint solutions and go-to-market approaches. - Redefining benchmark results and customer evidence into product decisions, competitive reactions, customer proof points, and field enablement materials. **What we need to see:** - 12+ years of experience in technical product management, performance engineering, or a closely related area. - BS or MS in Computer Science, Electrical or Computer Engineering — or equivalent experience. - Comprehensive, practical knowledge of CPU and database performance. - Understanding of system hardware characteristics that influence analytics performance — caching and clustering methods, high availability, memory and I/O sensitivity, and architectural trade-offs. - Ability to influence platform and architecture teams by translating workload performance into product, platform, and feature requirements. - Experience collaborating with external ISVs, silicon vendors, or the broader analytics ecosystem. **Ways to stand out from the crowd:** - Hands-on experience with TPC-H, TPC-DS, or comparable data analytics benchmarks, including methodology development and measurement. - Understanding of the disk, cache, and memory sensitivities of database and analytics workloads at scale. - Experience with market entry strategies, solution presentation, or the wider data analytics provider and cloud environment. - Background in accelerated computing platforms or data center CPU product launches. 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: 184,000 USD – 287,500 USD for Level 5; and 224,000 USD – 356,500 USD for Level 6. You will also be eligible for equity and [benefits](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/benefits/). Applications for this job will be accepted at least until November 3, 2026.
