The Executive Branch (specifically the President) only nominates Article III (constitutional) federal judges and US Bankruptcy court (Article I) judges, with the "advice and consent" of the Senate (Legislative Branch).
The President isn't involved in the appointment of all federal judges, however. Most judges outside the Judicial Branch, which consists of the US District Courts, US Court of International Trade, US Court of Appeals Circuit Courts, and US Supreme Court, are placed on the court by different means.
