Wu did not disclose what role he was taking up at Nvidia but Chinese media outlet Jiemian News said he would become its head of automotive products.
Nvidia also did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Wu, who resigned from Xpeng this month, said on his Weibo account that he had joined Nvidia, posting a photo of himself alongside Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and Xpeng's chairman He Xiaopeng.
Wu had led Xpeng's autonomous driving development efforts from 2018 with more than 1,000 engineers in China and the United States.
