DriveOS Documentation Technical Program Manager

Details

NVIDIA is seeking a DriveOS Documentation Program Manager with a passion for technical documentation and a strong focus on developer experience. You will own the overall documentation strategy and experience, ensuring DriveOS documentation is consistent, unified, and organized around customer needs. Working closely with product, engineering, technical writing, safety, security, QA, publishing, and customer-facing teams, you will define priorities, drive deliverables, track execution status, and ensure accurate, usable documentation reaches developers at each release.

The role will shape a unified DriveOS documentation experience across Linux, QNX, and other automotive variants, connecting content into a coherent developer experience while accounting for different product capabilities, review requirements, and delivery paths. You will lead documentation planning and execution throughout the release lifecycle, aligning the artifact plan, source data, approvals, and published outputs from the release plan of record through content freeze, release candidates, delivery, and post-release closure.

Responsibilities

• Own the DriveOS documentation strategy and information architecture.
• Establish shared content standards, terminology, and organization across teams and product variants.
• Drive closure of documentation gaps, duplication, and inconsistencies.
• Define documentation journeys for specific customer types and segments.
• Create navigation maps connecting guides, API references, release notes, and migration information.
• Plan and drive documentation delivery across DriveOS releases and product variants, aligning scope, owners, milestones, dependencies, customer commitments, and delivery paths.
• Lead cross-functional execution with writers, engineers, and reviewers; track status, resolve blockers, and manage documentation reviews, approvals, defect closure, and release exceptions.
• Coordinate publication and release communications, ensuring approved documentation is correctly versioned, mapped to supported variants, and available through the appropriate internal and external channels.
• Gather feedback from developers and customer-facing teams, assess how easily users find information and complete key tasks, and prioritize documentation improvements.
• Improve dashboards, issue tracking, handoff guides, and automation by defining data and workflow requirements with tool-owning teams.
• Use AI and large language models (LLMs) to propose documentation journeys and navigation maps, identify content gaps and inconsistencies, and support consistent terminology and structure. Validate proposed changes with technical writers and subject matter experts before publication.

Requirements

• 8+ years of relevant experience.
• Bachelor's degree in a technical or related field, or equivalent experience.
• Strong commitment to technical documentation, demonstrated through hands-on improvements to clarity, consistency, and usability informed by developer feedback and quality signals.
• Experience organizing developer documentation, defining journeys for different customer types and segments, and designing effective navigation.
• Strong program management skills, including planning, prioritization, dependency management, risk escalation, and driving complex programs across multiple teams.
• Familiarity with documentation workflows from content development and review through release and maintenance, including Git/GitLab collaboration, build and publication processes, and CI/CD concepts.
• Experience with automotive, embedded software, or similarly complex platform products.
• Clear written and verbal communication, sound judgment, and the ability to align technical writers, engineering, product, QA, and customer-facing teams.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience coordinating automotive safety and cybersecurity deliverables and review processes, including ISO 26262 or ISO 21434 contexts.
• Familiarity with API/ABI documentation, functional or performance test reports, and third-party license reporting.
• Practical experience using AI/LLMs to map documentation journeys, identify gaps and inconsistencies across documents, or improve content organization, with a clear approach to validating results.
• Experience with scripting, workflow automation, dashboards, or data validation.
• Experience with GitLab, Sphinx, reStructuredText, Doxygen, DITA, or related technical documentation toolchains.

Compensation and Benefits

The expected base salary range is USD 168,000–258,750, determined by location, experience, and other objective job-related factors. The role is also eligible for equity and benefits.
