NVIDIA's invention of the GPU in 1999 sparked the growth of the PC gaming market, redefined modern computer graphics, and revolutionized parallel computing. GPU deep learning ignited the modern AI era, with NVIDIA hardware and software acting as the foundation for the world's most ambitious AI, robotics, and autonomous systems workloads. Today, we are the AI computing company. NVIDIA Data Center Systems, including DGX, HGX, and MGX platforms, deliver the world's leading infrastructure for AI at scale. We are growing our teams with the most thoughtful, creative, and driven people on the planet. NVIDIA is searching for a highly motivated and creative senior security firmware engineer to join the Data Center Systems Software team and secure the platform: the baseboard management controllers, microcontrollers, and silicon roots of trust the rest of the platform depends on. You will design and deliver the firmware that proves the integrity of NVIDIA's data center systems from the first instruction out of reset through attestation, update, and recovery in production, and set technical direction for work that spans silicon vendors, platform teams, and industry standards bodies. What you'll be doing: Derive security requirements for NVIDIA’s data center platforms from business needs and threat modeling. Design and deliver root of trust firmware with features like secure and measured boot, attestation, provisioning of identities and cryptographic material, and secure debug. Own features from architecture to code: make the trade-offs explicit, gain agreement across silicon, platform, security architecture, manufacturing, and partner teams, and deliver the implementation. Implement industry security standards (eg.: SPDM, TCG DICE). Lead design and code reviews, improve threat modeling, testing, CI, and release practices, and make AI agents a normal part of how the team builds firmware. What we need to see: BS or MS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience. 7+ years of software and firmware engineering experience, or equivalent depth, including products built on a hardware root of trust. Deep understanding of roof of trust security fundamentals: chains of trust, signing and key management, attestation, and anti-rollback. Strong low-level programming skills and a deep understanding of SoC access controls (privilege levels, TrustZone, memory and bus protection). Familiarity with server firmware and systems software, plus experience building automation using Python or a comparable language. A record of leading technical work across teams without formal authority, including guiding other engineers on a shared deliverable. Experience with modern AI and agents, including an AI-forward mindset and proactive adoption of new tools and techniques. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a strong preference for written communication that creates clarity and institutional memory for a distributed team. Comfortable with ambiguity and complexity; you make sound decisions quickly with incomplete information and course-correct without friction. Ways to stand out from the crowd: Contributions to open-source root of trust projects or to industry security standards. Experience building systems with symmetric, asymmetric, and post-quantum cryptography. Rust firmware experience, including bringing Rust into an existing C or C++ codebase. Secure Manufacturing at scale. Security certifications such as FIPS 140-3. Hardware cryptographic accelerators, secure key storage, trusted execution frameworks such as OP-TEE or Keystone, and OpenBMC.

Firmware Engineer, Robotics
About the Team We are building general-purpose robotics. In the short term, we are focused on robots to support skilled workers to build our future infrastructure. In the long term, we imagine everyone having a personal robot doing anything they need. Progress is rapid, and based on a foundation of co-design between robotics hardware and ML research. About the Role As a Firmware Engineer, you will define and drive the architecture of embedded systems for next-generation hardware products. You will own foundational firmware decisions across real-time execution, device bring-up, hardware interfaces, fault handling, safety mechanisms, and production readiness. We’re looking for someone with deep experience building safety-critical or high-consequence systems, where failures can have meaningful consequences. You should be comfortable reasoning about risk, designing for diagnosability and graceful degradation, and creating engineering practices that raise the reliability bar for the entire team. You should also be unusually good at moving fast. Sometimes the right answer is a carefully reviewed architecture that will endure for years; sometimes it is getting a rough-but-useful prototype working by the end of the afternoon so the team can learn something concrete tomorrow. We value engineers who know the difference, make that call well, and can operate credibly in both modes. You will be both a technical leader and a hands-on builder: setting direction, reviewing critical designs, unblocking the hardest problems, and writing production firmware when it matters most. Our embedded stack uses a lot of Rust. Extensive experience in the language is a big help! In this role, you will: - Rapidly bring up new hardware and set execution pace for the team. - Lead firmware architecture for embedded systems spanning boot, RTOS/runtime behavior, peripheral control, power management, communications, and field diagnostics. - Define engineering standards for reliability, fault tolerance, observability, and maintainability across the firmware stack. - Design and review safety-critical mechanisms, including fault detection, recovery paths, watchdog strategies, redundancy where appropriate, and safe-state behavior. - Build quick, scrappy prototypes when speed of learning matters, then harden the right ideas into production-quality systems. - Partner closely with engineers in hardware, software, and AI research from early prototype through production. - Build rigorous bring-up, validation, and release processes for embedded platforms. - Establish testing strategies across unit, hardware-in-the-loop, integration, stress, and failure-injection testing. - Drive root-cause analysis for subtle hardware, firmware, and system interactions. - Make clear tradeoffs across performance, memory, power, schedule, and safety. - Mentor firmware engineers and help shape a culture of urgency, technical rigor, practical judgment, and high-quality execution. You might thrive in this role if you: - Have extensive experience developing firmware in an iterative environment. - Get a thrill from bringing up new hardware and taking end-to-end ownership over ensuring it works. - Have led architecture and delivery for complex embedded products that shipped to real users or operated in demanding production environments. - Are deeply fluent in low-level languages (we use Rust!) and comfortable working close to hardware under real-time constraints. - Understand embedded systems from first principles, including interrupts, scheduling, memory layout, buses, DMA, timing behavior, and failure modes. - Have strong instincts for defensive design, fault containment, validation depth, and post-deployment diagnosability. - Know when to build the durable system and when to produce the fastest credible artifact that unlocks the next decision. - Communicate clearly across disciplines and can turn ambiguity into sound technical direction. - Care about building systems that are not only fast and capable, but also trustworthy. - Make heavy use of Codex, Claude Code, or similar AI-assisted coding systems to accelerate implementation, prototyping, debugging, and iteration.
