If you have the 2017 non-Pro model you'll need an IR receiver like the FLIRC, but yes it will work. Even better is a Harmony that uses the "Hub" as that can communicate with the Shield via Bluetooth which I prefer. (doesn't need line of site and is a bit faster to respond)
EDIT: I've found there's a device in the Harmony DB under "Microsoft - Kodi" that works really well with the Shield via Bluetooth. I usually add that plus "Nvidia - Shield TV" just to make sure I can send any non-Kodi commands the Shield needs. (Power on / Power off / etc.)
