Inside Nvidia's org chart: See the 36 leaders who reported to CEO Jensen Huang as of 2025 at the world's most valuable company Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. Kent Nishimura/Reuters Editor's note: In November 2026, Nvidia's board announced it was initiating an investigation after recent reporting that CEO Jensen Huang had been the "target of a foreign intelligence effort." He also admitted to having an affair. A spokesperson said that Huang is "committed to continuing to lead Nvidia as CEO without interruption."It's unclear what will happen to his role as a result of this investigation. Huang is known for having more direct reports compared to other tech leaders. Here's what Business Insider previously reported in October 2025 about his org chart.Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang had 36 direct reports as of October 2025, according to an internal list obtained by Business Insider. Nvidia's top leadership team has seen some executive departures, including Jay Puri and Laura Fay, since then, though this list offers a glimpse into the inner circle at the top of the world's most valuable company.Huang is known for having more direct reports compared to other tech leaders. Previously, in an interview at Stanford in March 2024, Huang said he had 55 direct reports, adding that many were paid the same amount.Huang has 36 direct reports as of October 2025, according to an internal list obtained by Business Insider. Nvidia's top leadership team may have seen some executive changes since then, though this list offers a glimpse into the inner circle at the top of the world's most valuable company.Some of the executives reporting to Huang, according to the list, include Ian Buck, the architect behind Nvidia's breakthrough software Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA), as well as CTO Michael Kagan and chief scientist Bill Dally."The more direct reports the CEO has, the less layers are in the company," Huang said at The New York Times DealBook Summit in 2023. "It allows us to keep information fluid, allows us to make sure that everyone is empowered by information."Nvidia's workforce has grown massively in recent years thanks to the AI boom, and Huang's notoriously fierce work ethic has helped shape its hardcore culture.It's unknown whether Huang's smaller fleet of direct reports signals a shift away from the horizontal structure. Tech leaders have varying views on direct reports. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said he prefers not to have too many and instead runs the social media giant with a "core army" of 30 lieutenants —not all of whom he manages directly. CEO Elon Musk has 19 direct reports at Tesla as of August, and five at xAI.A Nvidia spokesperson declined to comment.Huang also said at Stanford that he doesn't schedule one-on-one meetings with direct reports so that information can spread more easily throughout the organization — unless a meeting is requested, in which case he'll "drop everything."Here is the list of Huang's direct reports, according to the list Business Insider obtained. These include senior and executive vice presidents of key organizations at Nvidia.Have a tip? Contact this reporter via email at gweiss@businessinsider.com or Signal at @geoffweiss.25.
