Nvidia sells GPUs for gaming and PCs along with computing and networking platforms for data centers and cars, and reported revenue of $215.9 billion for fiscal 2026, which ended January 25, 2026. That was up 65% from the prior year.

What Nvidia does

Compute & Networking brought in $193.5 billion of fiscal 2026 revenue and Graphics $22.5 billion, per the fiscal 2026 10-K. The first segment holds the Data Center accelerated computing and networking platforms plus Automotive platforms. The second holds GeForce GPUs and Quadro/NVIDIA RTX workstation GPUs. The filing names four markets: Data Center, Gaming, Professional Visualization and Automotive. Headquarters are at 2788 San Tomas Expressway in Santa Clara, California, where the company owns and leases about 3 million square feet of office and building space. Staff numbered about 42,000 in 38 countries at the end of fiscal 2026. Of those, 31,000 worked in research and development and 11,000 in sales, marketing, operations and administrative positions.

Santa Clara is the worksite on 1,296 of the 2,015 H-1B labor condition applications (LCAs) Nvidia submitted in calendar 2025, about 64%. Austin is a distant second. The 2025 filings by city, down to 27:

Good to know before you apply

  • Full-time candidates go from phone screens to virtual or in-person rounds, and must interview onsite at an Nvidia office before an offer. Interns usually interview by phone only.
  • Rounds usually last 30 to 60 minutes, one-on-one, small group or panel. Technical candidates may get a coding exercise.
  • An optional 15-minute Insider Chat with a Community Resource Group member can be part of the final interview. It does not affect the decision.
  • Benefits listed for new graduates include the ESPP, tuition reimbursement and paid time off.
  • Ask in the discussions below how the onsite runs for the team you want.
