What Colette Kress Said About Nvidia Before Taking Over From Jensen Huang

Kress spoke about the operational challenges associated with Nvidia’s growth, particularly the need to modernise internal processes and digitise manual operations.

Colette Kress, Nvidia’s longtime finance chief who was appointed interim chief executive following Jensen Huang’s resignation, once described the chipmaker as the smallest company she had worked for during her career.

In a 2022 interview with Fortune, Kress recalled joining Nvidia in September 2013 and discussed the challenges of managing a business undergoing rapid expansion.

“When I started at Nvidia, it was the smallest company that I’d ever worked for. It’s gotten quite large, but the focus is on how do you think about the future and make sure we’re ready for it to scale?” she said.

Kress also spoke about the operational challenges associated with Nvidia’s growth, particularly the need to modernise internal processes and digitise manual operations. She said these changes had become an important priority for the company’s finance organisation and other departments.

During the same interview, Kress was asked whether becoming a chief financial officer had always been her career ambition.

“No, actually. I think honestly, throughout my career, I was just always fascinated by somebody else’s role. And sometimes that was my boss’ role.
