NVIDIA is searching for a highly motivated, creative engineer with experience in system software security to join the Server Platform Software team. In this role, you will focus on securing the management plane for NVIDIA’s Data Center Systems, such as NVIDIA HGX, DGX, and MGX.
NVIDIA is looking for outstanding software engineers to help us expand our enterprise GPU management and monitoring tools. In this role, you will work closely with the broader NVIDIA team to design and build Linux-based management agents, Kubernetes integrations, and end-to-end integration solutions that combine GPUs with the rest of the datacenter software management ecosystem. We are focused on supporting NVIDIA products across HPC, cloud, and enterprise on both bare metal and virtualized platforms as the role of GPUs in all of these environments expands. Your contributions will span many aspects of GPU system integration, including telemetry and metrics, health checks, diagnostics, configuration, and system management. These tools fill roles of both passive background monitoring and active online management with a core emphasis on operational transparency and seamless integration in customer environments. Your code will support single-node developer systems through large clusters with thousands of nodes.
What you’ll be doing:
Designing, implementing, and delivering innovations to secure AI Data Center systems with focus on Root of Trust (RoT) for boot, attestation, recovery, OOB management, and overall security firmware development.
Designing and developing optimized security solutions using industry standards such as OpenBMC, UEFI, TCG DICE, SPDM, PLDM and Redfish.
Design and develop primitive cryptographic services for platform and device resiliency in accordance with NIST 800-193.
What we need to see:
BS or MS degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related degree (or equivalent experience).
5+ years of meaningful software and firmware engineering experience
Experience with ARM or RISC-V based system software development. Familiarity with RISC-V or ARM security and privilege modes, such as TZ
Excellent C/C++ programming and low-level firmware development experience
Excellent comprehension of security fundamentals
Experience with software development lifecycle standard methodologies, e.g. threat modeling, unit testing, incident response, code audit, CI/CD etc.
Experience with modern server architectures. Effective written and verbal communication regardless of audience or issue complexity
Ability to work collaboratively and remotely with others to accomplish complex goals
Solid experience of end-to-end delivery of high-end enterprise servers from definition to customer deployment.
Ways to stand out from the crowd:
Experience in Developing RoT subsystems and required cryptographic value-ads. Experience in developing system software and drivers to interact with PCI, USB, I2C and SPI
Experience with open-source frameworks such as Keystone, OpTEE, TCG DICE. In-depth familiarity with data center server architecture
Proficiency in memory safe programming languages such as Rust. Contribution to industry open-source security initiatives
