Job Summary

Job Title: Ecosystem Channel Leader, North America & Latin America— NVIDIA Ecosystem Business Unit

 

Location: United States (preferably based in the Bay Area with travel as required to NVIDIA HQ, client sites, and industry events)

Experience: 20+ years in technology services / partner ecosystems 

Reports to: Global Head, NVIDIA Ecosystem Business Unit (part of Advanced AI Ecosystem Unit, under the CTO office)

Team: Leads the US GTM team for the NVIDIA EBU

 

Role Summary

HCLTech is seeking a senior go-to-market leader to build and run the NVIDIA Ecosystem Business Unit's business in North America. The role carries five accountabilities: driving sales leadership and revenue growth; building and managing a high-performing GTM team; ensuring solution coverage across HCLTech's NVIDIA-based offerings; leading CXO-level customer engagement; and managing the NVIDIA alliance in the region as a strategic lever for all of the above. This is a senior techno-sales leadership role — equal parts commercial, strategic, and technical — combining industry domain knowledge with a deep understanding of AI, accelerated computing, and emerging Physical AI domains (robotics, autonomous machines, digital twins).

 

The leader must be AI-ready and a recognized thought leader — able to shape how clients, NVIDIA, and HCLTech's own vertical and line-of-business leadership think about AI adoption, and to convert that influence into pipeline and bookings. Success is measured in influenced Sales Booking, qualified pipeline, and client outcomes; the alliance is the means to that end, not the end in itself

Key Responsibilities

Key Responsibilities

Sales Leadership & Revenue Growth

  • Own the North America Sales Revenue plan for the NVIDIA EBU — bookings, pipeline coverage, and win rates across sell-with, sell-through, and sell-to motions
  • Define and execute GTM plays across priority industries and accounts; partner with HCLTech vertical, geo, and account leadership to embed NVIDIA-based solutions into major pursuits
  • Set territory priorities, quotas, and account coverage for the team, and run a disciplined cadence of pipeline reviews, deal inspection, and forecast accuracy
  • Act as executive sponsor on strategic pursuits — open doors at the top, shape the deal, and bring HCLTech and NVIDIA leadership into the room at the right moments

 

Team Leadership & Management

  • Lead, coach, and scale the North America GTM team for the NVIDIA EBU as the team grows — hire, develop, and retain sales/GTM and partner talent
  • Build internal capability — drive NVIDIA certifications (e.g., Deep Learning Institute), enablement, and knowledge sharing of wins and best practices across the team and the wider sales organization
  • Orchestrate cross-functional teams (sales ops, marketing, solutions, delivery) beyond direct reports; drive outcomes through influence in a matrixed organization

 

Solution Coverage & Offering Alignment

  • Ensure end-to-end solution coverage of HCLTech's NVIDIA-based portfolio in the region — AI Factory, Physical AI, Industry AI, and Sovereign AI — so that every priority account has a credible, demo-led proposition
  • Work with solution and engineering teams to shape differentiated HCLTech offerings on NVIDIA platforms, and position future-oriented, demo-led proposals with clear value propositions and ROI framing
  • Maintain a sound working understanding of the NVIDIA technology stack — accelerated computing, AI infrastructure (DGX/HGX, networking), AI Enterprise software, NIMs/microservices, Omniverse, and vertical platforms — and translate NVIDIA's roadmap into HCLTech solution and investment priorities

 

Customer Engagement & Thought Leadership

  • Lead senior-level client engagement — evangelize HCLTech–NVIDIA AI capabilities with client CXOs, connecting industry trends and business problems to accelerated-computing solutions
  • Act as a public thought leader for HCLTech's AI agenda — whitepapers, keynotes, GTC and industry forums, co-hosted executive workshops — amplified with HCLTech marketing
  • Build creative partnerships with niche AI firms and ISVs where they strengthen HCLTech's differentiation in client pursuits

 

NVIDIA Alliance Management (Strategic)

  • Own the executive-level relationship with NVIDIA in North America across business, product, and GTM organizations; serve as HCLTech's primary regional interface
  • Develop joint value propositions and account plans with NVIDIA's US regional teams; drive co-sell, co-marketing, and partner-program progression
  • Run the alliance governance cadence — QBRs, leadership reviews, joint planning — and own the regional alliance scorecard: pipeline, revenue, certifications, joint wins, and program tier compliance

 

Stakeholder Management

  • Align NVIDIA, HCLTech vertical leaders, and line-of-business owners behind a single regional NVIDIA agenda; resolve priority and investment conflicts at the executive level
  • Act as the trusted voice on AI opportunity for HCLTech's geo and vertical leadership — translating NVIDIA's direction into what it means for their accounts and growth plans

 

Measures of Success

  • Regional bookings and revenue against plan; qualified pipeline coverage and conversion for NVIDIA-based solutions
  • Solution coverage — share of priority accounts with an active, demo-led NVIDIA proposition
  • Team performance and capability — quota attainment, retention, and certification progress
  • Alliance health — NVIDIA partner-program standing, joint wins, and executive engagement cadence

Skill Requirements

Required Skills & Experience

  • Proven sales leadership — track record of owning and delivering a revenue plan for technology services or AI solutions, including building pipeline and closing partner-influenced deals
  • Proven people leadership — experience building, coaching, and managing high-performing GTM and sales teams in a matrixed environment
  • Senior stakeholder management — able to work credibly at executive level with NVIDIA, HCLTech vertical and geo leaders, and client line-of-business owners, and to drive alignment without direct authority
  • AI-ready — fluent in accelerated computing, AI infrastructure, enterprise AI software, and emerging agentic and Physical AI; able to hold a technical conversation and translate it into business value
  • Thought leadership — demonstrated public presence (speaking, publishing, industry forums) and the ability to shape how clients and partners think about AI adoption
  • Prior experience in a GSI (Global Systems Integrator) environment — understanding of GSI sales motions, delivery models, and partner economics is essential
  • Domain knowledge — strong understanding of 1–2 industry sectors (e.g., manufacturing, automotive, financial services, healthcare) and their AI use-cases
  • Alliance and partner experience — deep awareness of the AI market landscape and NVIDIA's partner ecosystem; prior experience in NVIDIA's partner network or at a leading GSI/consulting firm strongly preferred
  • Exceptional communication and executive presence — builds trusted relationships externally with client and NVIDIA executives and internally across sales, delivery, and marketing

Other Requirements

  • Existing relationships within NVIDIA's partner or industry organizations
  • Experience launching AI/GenAI solutions or industry platforms with hyperscalers or silicon partners
