Base Salary
$272k - $431k/yr
Responsibilities
- Own the architecture and production implementation of a core DGX Cloud security domain such as workload isolation, workload identity, infrastructure and network security, supply-chain provenance, hardened baselines, patching, or admission control.
- Embed with platform engineering teams early in design, write production code, and help ship secure systems rather than acting as an approval-board reviewer.
- Build secure paved roads, reference architectures, guardrails, requirements, and golden paths that teams adopt by default.
- Threat-model the substrate, orchestration layer, and tenancy boundary, attack designs offensively, and feed findings into baselines, detections, and controls.
- Partner with platform, production engineering, network security, hardware lifecycle, and central security teams while influencing teams without direct authority.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent experience, with 15+ years of relevant experience.
- Typically 15+ years of experience spanning software engineering, SRE, infrastructure, and security engineering.
- Strong software engineering background with experience writing clean, maintainable, well-tested code and building and operating production services at scale.
- Hands-on experience designing, building, and operating security systems for areas such as multi-tenant isolation, identity and access, policy enforcement, vulnerability management, or detection engineering.
- Proven ability to threat-model complex distributed systems, identify architectural gaps, and engineer solutions that close them.
- Deep experience with cloud-native architecture, Kubernetes, and Linux systems security, including kernel-level primitives such as eBPF, AppArmor, or SELinux.
- Experience landing designs through teams the candidate does not own using influence, credibility, and relationships.
- Preferred experience includes HPC or AI security, RDMA networks, large GPU fleets, GPU-specific security, SPIFFE/SPIRE, TPM/HSM integration, confidential computing, exploitation or red-team work, security research, and security-focused open-source contributions.
Benefits
- Expected base salary range is 272,000 USD–431,250 USD, with eligibility for equity and benefits.
- Applications will be accepted at least until November 10, 2026; the posting is for an existing vacancy.
