NVIDIA requires a Senior Real Estate Development Manager to guide the complete development journey of strategic “Iconics” workplace and campus development. This position is the sole owner of merging (1) Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) and regulatory obligations, (2) NVIDIA’s business objectives, and (3) project/site restrictions into a clear, actionable development strategy. The role includes recognizing when specialized support in entitlements, environmental concerns, legal, or technical fields must be brought in and coordinated. This is not a traditional construction-only Project Manager role. It is a senior development “orchestrator” role that drives outcomes across government interface, collaborator alignment, and program delivery. This role is based at NVIDIA's office in Yokneam, Israel 

What You’ll Be Doing: 

• Own the vision and execution for large-scale development projects, from site selection and due diligence through design, entitlement, and construction. 

• Direct the full development process from site and land activities through entitlements, approvals, and preparation for delivery, converting NVIDIA goals into a well-defined action plan. \

• Serve as primary contact working with government bodies, municipalities, agencies, and utilities, crafting submissions, negotiations, and approval strategies. 

• Drive regulatory and entitlement pathways, ensuring realistic schedules, risk mitigation, and defensible documentation. 

• Balance Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) requirements, NVIDIA business priorities, and project constraints to resolve conflicts and guide decision-making. 

• Provide clear tradeoff recommendations and decision materials for executive leadership. 

• Coordinate with architects, engineers, and external PM/CM partners to maintain alignment with development intent. 

• Establish and lead program governance, including status tracking, risk management, and collaborator coordination. 

• Deliver executive-ready reporting on progress, risks, dependencies, and recommended actions. 

• Maintain disciplined documentation across approvals, collaborator commitments, and key decisions. 

What We Need To See: 

• Bachelor’s degree in Architecture, Real Estate Development, Urban Planning, Construction Management, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience). 

• 10+ overall years of experience in real estate development and capital projects delivery with direct responsibility for approvals/entitlements and coordination among multiple parties and 5+ years of management experience

• Demonstrated experience leading large-scale, complex developments in Israel (or deeply comparable regulatory environment), including AHJ interface and negotiation. 

• Proven ability to manage consultants and cross-functional collaborators, getting results through influence and structured governance. 

• Strong written and verbal communication with executives; capable of producing concise decision-quality materials. 

• Experience with enterprise / tech / critical workplace or campus developments. 

• Track record delivering complex programs across multiple authorities and jurisdictions. 

• Familiarity with procurement/vendor management, contracting, and scope definition for specialist services. 

• Comfort operating in ambiguity and building structure where processes are not yet established. 

Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd: 

• Master’s degree in Real Estate (MSRE), Business (MBA), or Architecture. 

• Delivered large tech campus development 

• Outstanding ability to navigate regulatory environments 

• Proven expertise in managing high-stakes projects with multiple collaborators
