Originally posted 4 September 2026 by the employer. Relisted by the employer on 5 November 2026.
About the role
This role involves implementing and validating security features, conducting security assessments, and resolving security issues for AI systems.
What you'll do
- Implement, configure, and validate platform security features for AI systems on internal test platforms.
- Conduct security assessments of platforms, firmware, and AI systems.
- Develop, review, and apply security fixes, and verify them on real hardware.
- Analyze, reproduce, and drive resolution of security issues reported by internal teams, customers, and researchers.
- Support customer security requirements and respond to customer security inquiries and findings.
- Provision and manage keys, certificates, and device identities for secure boot, attestation, and platform bring-up.
What you'll need
- Multiple years' experience in security engineering or platform, firmware, or software engineering with a security focus.
- Experience securing and debugging systems across hardware, firmware, and software, including security assessment, vulnerability analysis, and developing and applying fixes.
- Experience provisioning and managing keys, certificates, and device identities (secure boot signing, attestation, PKI), with a solid understanding of platform security concepts: secure boot, attestation, cryptography, memory safety, and isolation.
- Proficient in C/C++ and at least one scripting language (Python or similar), and comfortable in Linux environments.
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent.
Nice to have
- Experience securing AI/ML workloads or working directly on AI training or inference infrastructure, including familiarity with confidential computing and trusted execution environments.
- Familiarity with GPU and accelerator platforms, virtualization (SR-IOV, SIOV, MIG), and firmware, as well as datacenter interconnect standards (PCIe, CXL) and their security features.
- Familiarity with supply-chain integrity practices, including SBOM, build provenance, and reproducible builds, and with open-source firmware projects (Caliptra, OpenBMC, coreboot, EDK II, openSIL).
- Experience supporting external security audits, red teams, or independent platform assessment, and knowledge of hardware security standards and frameworks (TCG, NIST, OCP).
