Developer Relations Manager, Metropolis – Manufacturing and Industrial

Are you a rare mix of technical depth, ecosystem savvy, and relationship-building skill? Do you thrive at the intersection of AI, automation, and industrial innovation? If you’re passionate about enabling others and want to accelerate how manufacturers, ISVs, and system integrators apply AI in production environments — we want to meet you! As a Developer Relations Manager for NVIDIA Metropolis, you’ll play a key role in expanding the adoption of AI-powered vision, reasoning, and automation across factories, warehouses, and industrial spaces. You’ll work directly with Independent Software Vendors (ISVs), System Integrators, and manufacturers who are shaping the next generation of intelligent operations. Your mission: build positive relationships, remove friction, and empower developers to harness NVIDIA’s AI platforms to deliver real-world industrial impact.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Engage and support ISVs, system integrators, and manufacturers using AI to transform industrial operations.

• Partner with developers to help them integrate NVIDIA’s latest vision AI technologies into scalable industrial solutions.

• Collaborate with product, engineering, and marketing teams to amplify developer enablement and ecosystem growth.

• Drive early adoption of NVIDIA Metropolis and related SDKs, ensuring partner success through hands-on guidance and technical onboarding.

• Identify and elevate lighthouse partners demonstrating best-in-class industrial AI use cases.

What We Need To See:

• 8yrs of proven ability in a technical or developer-facing role, ideally within AI, industrial automation, or OT systems integration.

• Bachelor’s or advanced degree in computer science, engineering, or related field, or equivalent experience.

• Proven success building and supporting developer ecosystems or partner networks.

• Strong technical understanding of AI, machine learning, video analytics, or related technologies.

• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills, with the ability to convey complex technical concepts clearly across technical and business audiences.

• Ability to collaborate multi-functionally to accelerate adoption and scale developer success.

Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd:

• Experience applying AI in manufacturing or industrial automation, including computer vision, robotics, or digital-twin workflows.

• Experience in manufacturing operations or adjacent industrial fields, with a deep understanding of the unique challenges, risk tolerance, and change-management dynamics that shape technology adoption in these traditionally conservative industries.

• Hands-on familiarity with AI for computer vision, robotics, or NVIDIA platforms (Metropolis, Omniverse, CUDA-X)

• Proven success enabling ISVs, manufacturers, or system integrators in sectors such as manufacturing, logistics, or energy, guiding them from pilot to scaled deployment.

• Passion for helping developers and operators bridge the gap between innovation and production reality through intelligent, AI-powered systems.
