What You Will Be Doing:

Space Planning & Site Assessment

• Lead pre-lease feasibility studies and test fits, applying NVIDIA Workplace Guidelines to evaluate and validate potential new sites across APAC and India.

• Partner with occupancy planners, facility managers, and office managers to provide design guidance on day-to-day space planning needs and emerging occupancy challenges.

Design Leadership on Campus, Tenant Improvement, and Datacenter Office Projects

• Serve as the regional design lead and primary point of contact for workplace projects across APAC and India. Partner closely with NVIDIA project managers to provide creative direction and review across interior architecture, finishes, lighting, furniture, and branding—ensuring full alignment with NVIDIA Global Workplace Guidelines. Deliver regular design progress reports to senior RESS leadership.

• Coordinate multi-functional stakeholders—including AV, IT, Security, Food & Beverage, EH&S, and Facility Management—throughout the design development process to ensure operational requirements and design intent are fully integrated.

• Review and coordinate architectural drawings and design documentation for all regional projects, ensuring consistent alignment with NVIDIA Workplace Guidelines.

• Lead construction administration activities including site visits, quality control reviews, and issue resolution to uphold design integrity through project delivery.

• Direct the selection, engagement, and performance management of external architecture, interior design, and furniture partners across the region—shaping creative intent and holding vendors accountable to NVIDIA standards.

Workplace Strategy & Innovation

• Partner with global Workplace Design leadership to continuously evolve NVIDIA’s Workplace Guidelines, contributing regional expertise in design trends, furniture markets, cultural practices, and local market conditions across APAC and India.

• Lead post-occupancy evaluations to gather end-user insights and performance data, collaborating with global peers to translate learnings into ongoing improvements in employee experience and workplace effectiveness.

Furniture Procurement & Vendor Management

• Oversee the end-to-end furniture procurement process for all regional construction projects, managing external partners through specification, quoting, order management, and installation coordination.

• Proactively track furniture orders across concurrent projects, resolving delivery, quality, or installation issues to keep projects on schedule.

• Cultivate and manage strategic relationships with preferred furniture dealers and manufacturers across APAC and India, ensuring competitive performance and NVIDIA-aligned product availability.

What We Need to See:

• Bachelor’s degree in interior design or architecture from an accredited institution; advanced degree preferred.

• 8+ years of professional experience in corporate workplace design, with a proven track record across complex, multi-stakeholder projects.

• Proficiency in AutoCAD and/or Revit and Bluebeam.
