Today, we’re tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing. An era in which our GPU acts as the brains of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can understand the world. Doing what’s never been done before takes vision, innovation, and the world’s best talent. As an NVIDIAN, you’ll be immersed in a diverse, supportive environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact on the world.
We’re looking for an outstanding business lawyer to join the NVIDIA legal team as Senior Counsel, Business Partnerships & Strategic Transactions. You’ll support NVIDIA’s strategic and consequential business relationships by structuring, negotiating, and closing the agreements behind the accelerated computing and AI infrastructure that power our products. You’ll partner closely with business leaders, fellow attorneys, and outside counsel on a diverse workstream that evolves with the company.
What you'll be doing:
- Draft, review, and negotiate business partnership and commercial agreements across NVIDIA’s global business: hardware, software licensing, reseller, distributor, partner programs, marketing, and government contracts.
- Collaborate with the business teams through complex deal cycles with sophisticated enterprise, cloud, public sector, and highly regulated customers, and among a diverse spectrum of industries and verticals.
- Build scalable legal infrastructure: playbooks, templates, and tools that enable business teams to move fast without sacrificing rigor.
- Assist with novel and technically complex transactions, translating cross-cutting legal issues into clear risk assessments that advance NVIDIA’s mission and goals.
What we need to see:
- 10+ years of legal experience supporting commercial contracting and customer engagements, in-house, at a law firm, or both.
- Exceptional drafting and negotiation skills with experience handling hardware, software licensing, and public sector transactions.
- Track record of running point on high-value, non-standard transactions end-to-end, collaborating with internal stakeholders and keeping deals moving on demanding timelines while exercising sound judgment and seeking help when needed.
- Recognized as a trusted advisor to business leaders, known for turning complex legal issues into clear, practical risk guidance.
- Juris Doctor from an accredited US law school; admitted to the bar and in good standing in the jurisdiction of hire, or otherwise authorized to practice law (e.g., registered in-house status).
Ways to stand out from the crowd:
- Energized to support deals that span practice areas and shift with NVIDIA’s business.
- Equally ready to support routine agreements as to lead first-of-its-kind deals and willing to pick up whatever the business needs.
- Background or genuine interest in government and public sector commercial work, including government procurement requirements and regulated-industry customers.
- Systems thinker who goes beyond the deal in front of them to build or improve the process for next time.
- Curious and low-ego: you ask questions, seek help from others, learn the technology and the business, and know the best answer can come from anyone and a self-starter who manages priorities with minimal direction and collaborates easily across functions and disciplines.
NVIDIA is one of the technology world’s most desirable employers! We have some of the most innovative and hardworking people in the world working for us, and if you're creative and collaborative, we want to hear from you!
Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is 232,000 USD - 368,000 USD. You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.
Applications for this job will be accepted at least until October 24, 2026. This posting is for an existing vacancy.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding TN Visa Sponsorship in Head Of Partnerships
Align your credentials to the Management Consultant category
TN visa approval for Head of Partnerships roles hinges on framing the position under Management Consultant, not a generic business title. Your degree and offer letter must clearly reflect advisory, strategic, or analytical functions, not pure sales.
Target employers with cross-border partnership operations
Companies managing vendor networks, channel programs, or international alliances file TN petitions more routinely. Focus your search on tech, SaaS, and professional services firms where partnerships drive core revenue and the role has clear strategic scope.
Use Migrate Mate to find verified TN-sponsoring employers
Migrate Mate filters Head of Partnerships openings by employers with recent visa filings, helping you find roles at companies experienced with work visa sponsorship processes.
Prepare a detailed offer letter before any border crossing
Canadian citizens can obtain TN status at a port of entry, but CBP officers scrutinize management-level roles closely. Your offer letter must specify the strategic scope of the partnerships function, your reporting structure, and your qualifying degree field.
Negotiate TN filing responsibility into your offer terms
Unlike H-1B visa, employers aren't legally required to cover TN preparation costs. Address this during negotiation, not after signing. Confirm the employer will handle documentation and any legal fees before you accept the role.
Confirm Mexican TN appointment lead times before accepting timelines
Mexican citizens require a consular visa appointment, which can run several weeks depending on location and season. Factor this into your start-date negotiation so your employer isn't expecting a two-week onboarding when your appointment is six weeks out.
Head Of Partnerships TN Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Head of Partnerships role qualify for TN visa status?
It can, but the role must be structured under the Management Consultant category, which requires that the position involves providing strategic or analytical guidance to the business rather than primarily executing sales. Your offer letter needs to describe the advisory and cross-functional nature of the partnerships function explicitly, and your degree should be in business, marketing, or a related field.
How does TN visa sponsorship compare to H-1B for this role?
TN has no lottery and no annual cap for Canadian citizens, so there's no waiting cycle or random selection. H-1B requires employer sponsorship, a lottery registration in March, and a potential wait of over a year before you can start. For a Head of Partnerships role at a company familiar with TN filings, TN is faster and more predictable, though it does not lead directly to permanent residence the way H-1B can.
Where can I find Head of Partnerships jobs that offer TN visa sponsorship?
Most general job boards don't filter by visa category, which means you spend time applying to roles where the employer has never sponsored a TN. Migrate Mate is built specifically for this, letting you search Head of Partnerships openings by employers who have an established sponsorship history, so your applications go to companies already set up to support the process.
Can Canadian applicants get TN status at the border for a senior role like Head of Partnerships?
Yes, Canadians can apply at a U.S. port of entry without a prior visa. However, management-level roles receive closer scrutiny from CBP officers than technical ones do. Bring a detailed offer letter, your degree credentials, and documentation demonstrating the strategic scope of the position. If the role is ambiguous, a USCIS-filed petition with an I-129 gives you an adjudicated record before you travel.
What happens to my TN status if the partnerships role changes significantly after I start?
TN status is tied to the specific position and employer documented in your petition or border application. If your responsibilities shift materially, such as moving from strategic partnerships to direct sales management, you may need to file an amended TN with updated documentation. Check with your employer's immigration contact if your role evolves, since working outside your approved TN scope creates status risk.
