Multiple reports describe how Pruthviraj, an engineer from Karnataka, secures a high-paying role at NVIDIA despite not having an IIT degree. Both outlets state that he earns around ₹2.6 crore per year with NVIDIA and that the opportunity is tied to the company’s work in California. The articles focus on his non-traditional path, highlighting that he does not come through what they describe as an IIT route or privileged educational opportunities.
The stories attribute his outcome to persistence and self-directed learning, framing his experience as an example of career progression outside elite institutional backgrounds. While the accounts differ slightly in wording, they agree on the core details: his location in Karnataka, the absence of an IIT tag or degree, the reported ₹2.6 crore-a-year NVIDIA compensation, and the connection to NVIDIA’s California headquarters. The reports present his background and motivation as key factors behind his hiring, without adding conflicting information about the job offer itself.
