We are now looking for a Senior Security Validation Architect for Networking AI Platforms! NVIDIA is seeking an outstanding security architect with deep expertise in security validation and advanced testing methodologies to help design, build, and guide secure validation across our next-generation products. The candidate is expected to deliver highly innovative validation and verification solutions that lead to significant industry differentiation and help achieve the long-range goals of the Security organization. Leaders in this role will strengthen NVIDIA’s Data Center and networking products against emerging threats while driving adoption of future-proof security validation technologies.

What you’ll be doing:

• Defining and driving implementation and adoption of security validation strategies across NVIDIA’s networking platforms security solutions—spanning Silicon, Firmware, and System levels.

• Designing frameworks and automation flows to test and verify security functionality during product QA, large-scale manufacturing, and in-field operation.

• Collaborating with architecture, design, and product engineering teams to ensure robust verification coverage for hardware roots of trust, secure boot, key provisioning, and cryptographic services.

• Driving development of advanced validation and debugging tools capable of detecting complex security anomalies, misconfigurations, and behavioral deviations across systems.

• Building and maintaining an end-to-end visibility architecture for security validation metrics, enabling continuous trust across the product lifecycle.

What we need to see:

• B.Sc., M.Sc. in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or Computer Science, or equivalent experience.

• 7+ years of experience in system-level validation, test development, or security verification within complex hardware/software products.

• Deep understanding of system security concepts such as secure boot, attestation, cryptographic key management, and trusted hardware.

• Strong background in embedded or distributed systems testing, including familiarity with firmware, OS, and system manufacturing flows.

• Proven experience in working with hardware security components

• Hands-on experience with test automation frameworks, scripting (Python/Go/C++), and debugging of complex systems.

• Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Experience applying AI/ML methods for test generation, anomaly detection, or system debugging.

• Familiarity with secure manufacturing, HSM-based provisioning, or supply chain security validation.

• Experience with formal verification tools and Good understanding of DFT including Scan/ATPG/BIST/JTAG

• Contributions to open-source validation frameworks or industry standards.

• Ph.D. in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or Computer Science
