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.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding TN Visa Sponsorship as a Partnerships Manager
Align your credentials to the TN category
Partnerships Manager roles qualify under Management Consultant, not a standalone category. Your degree in business, marketing, or a related field must demonstrably connect to the alliance-building and strategic advisory work the role involves, not just the job title.
Target employers with cross-border partnership portfolios
Companies managing U.S.-Canada or U.S.-Mexico commercial relationships already understand the business case for hiring across borders. Their legal and HR teams are more likely to have handled TN visa documentation before, reducing internal friction at the offer stage.
Request a TN-specific offer letter before filing
The offer letter is your primary TN document. It must specify your role as advisory and project-based, not permanent operational management. Ask the employer to frame responsibilities around client engagement strategies and measurable deliverables rather than ongoing internal management duties.
Prepare for port-of-entry scrutiny as a Canadian
Canadian citizens apply directly at a U.S. land border or preclearance airport without a visa stamp. Bring your degree transcripts, the certified offer letter, and a concise role description. CBP officers assess on the spot, so clarity in your documents matters more than volume.
Use Migrate Mate to surface TN-sponsoring employers
Identifying which employers will actively support a TN filing for Partnerships Manager roles takes research. Migrate Mate filters job listings by TN visa sponsorship willingness, saving you from pursuing roles where the hiring team has no framework for the process.
Confirm your status extension timeline before renewal
TN status is granted in three-year increments with no cap on renewals. If your partnership role evolves into a more permanent managerial function over time, reassess whether the Management Consultant classification still accurately describes your day-to-day responsibilities before your next renewal.
Partnerships Manager TN Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Partnerships Manager role qualify for TN visa sponsorship?
Yes, but the classification matters. Partnerships Manager positions qualify under the TN Management Consultant category when the role centers on developing strategic alliances, advising on partnership structures, and delivering defined business outcomes. Roles that shift toward internal staff management or operational oversight can face pushback at adjudication. Your offer letter must frame the work as consultative and project-driven to hold up under CBP or consular review.
How does TN visa sponsorship compare to H-1B for Partnerships Manager roles?
TN has no lottery and no annual cap for Canadians, so you can accept a job offer and obtain status in the same week at a port of entry. H-1B visa selection is randomized and limited to 85,000 slots per fiscal year. For Partnerships Manager roles where the employer qualifies the position under Management Consultant, TN is faster and more predictable. The trade-off is that TN does not lead directly to a green card the way H-1B can.
What documents does my employer need to prepare for my TN filing?
Your employer needs to produce a signed offer letter on company letterhead that states your job title, describes the consultative nature of the work, confirms your start date and compensation, and explains why a professional with your qualifications is needed. They do not file a petition with USCIS for the TN category; the letter goes directly to CBP at the border or to a U.S. consulate for Mexican nationals requiring a visa stamp.
Where can I find Partnerships Manager jobs that explicitly support TN visa sponsorship?
Most standard job listings do not specify which visa types an employer will sponsor. Migrate Mate is designed for this: it surfaces Partnerships Manager roles from employers who have indicated willingness to support TN visa sponsorship, so you can focus your applications on companies already prepared to handle the documentation rather than negotiating visa support from scratch after receiving an offer.
Can Mexican citizens apply for TN status for Partnerships Manager roles the same way Canadians can?
No. Mexican nationals cannot apply at a U.S. port of entry the way Canadian citizens can. You must apply for a TN visa stamp at a U.S. consulate in Mexico before traveling to the U.S. That requires scheduling a consular appointment, submitting the DS-160, and attending an interview. The underlying eligibility requirements and documentation are the same, but the process involves more lead time and a consular fee.
