As an NVIDIAN, you’ll be immersed in a diverse, encouraging environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact on the world.

Are you passionate about software security and looking to make a significant impact in the automotive industry? Join NVIDIA, a world-class leader in AI and accelerated computing, as a Software Security Architect in our DRIVE OS Automotive Software team. In this role, you'll contribute to the development of safety-critical automotive platforms, that meet high performance demands while being resilient to cyber attacks.

What you'll be doing:

Define, analyze, and review secure software architectures for centralized automotive computing platforms.
Perform threat modeling and security architecture analysis for mixed-criticality, multi-tenant automotive software systems.
Partner with safety architects to reason about the interaction between security controls, safety mechanisms, failure modes, and recovery behavior.
Define OS security policy, access control, isolation, and privilege models across Android, Linux, QNX, and virtualized environments.
Build security systems that maintain integrity and availability for safety-critical vehicle software.
Analyze security trade-offs involving performance, latency, memory footprint, boot time, diagnosability, and functional safety requirements.
Guide engineering teams on secure build, secure coding, threat mitigation, and security review practices.
Collaborate across software, hardware, safety, security, and systems teams to meet NVIDIA and automotive industry standards.

What we need to see:

12+ years of experience in secure and safe embedded software development
Bachelors degree or equivalent experience
Strong background in embedded systems security, platform security, and OS security applied to high performance computers (HPCs).
Solid understanding of software safety principles and their interplay with secure develop principles when applied to mixed-criticality systems.
Experience implementing security frameworks to address integrity and availability issues.
Experience with threat modeling, applied cryptography, common attack vectors, and security reviews.
Familiarity with ARM-based SoC architecture, including caches, buses, memory controllers, debug, interrupt handling, and device access control.
Familiarity with OS architecture, kernel concepts, drivers, process isolation, memory protection, and networking protocols such as Ethernet, TCP/IP, and TLS.
Experience with virtualization technologies and building secure multi-tenant embedded platforms.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

Hands-on experience with both ISO/SAE 21434 and ISO 26262, including TARA, HARA, and safety-security co-analysis.
Experience crafting security architecture for safety-critical embedded systems.
Deep experience with hypervisors, kernels, device drivers, boot firmware, debug infrastructure, or low-level platform security.
Experience with formal specification, formal verification, and model checking.
Ability to translate between safety, security, systems, and software engineering teams and drive practical architectural decisions.
