Job Description:
We are seeking a Sr. Security Architect to drive security architecture for Client and Data Center SoCs, with a primary focus on using AI‑driven tools to build Specifications, Code, Test, and analyze security vulnerabilities at scale. This role defines how modern AI techniques are applied to security systems across firmware and low‑level system hardware/software—augmenting and surpassing traditional manual development and review. The successful candidate is a recognized technical expert who can combine deep SOC/Platform security expertise with hands‑on use of AI‑based analysis tools to build, test and uncover real security flaws, systemic risks, and cross‑layer attack paths early in the product lifecycle.
Key Responsibilities
- Serve as the technical lead for SOC security architecture across Client and Data Center SOC/platform Definition:
- Boot ROMs, secure and measured boot flows
- Hardware–firmware–OS chains of trust
- AI Accelerator Security for Client NPU
Lead security discovery using AI‑based analysis tools, with explicit responsibility for:
- Identifying firmware and low‑level vulnerabilities at scale
- Discovering insecure coding patterns and flawed design assumptions
- Uncovering cross‑layer attack paths spanning silicon, firmware, and system software
Apply AI‑assisted code reasoning and large‑scale analysis to:
- Rapidly analyze large firmware and platform codebases
- Explore edge cases, rare failure modes, and adversarial scenarios
- Assess security impact of design choices and implementation tradeoffs
- Drive firmware‑focused threat modeling, enhanced by AI tools that broaden coverage, identify emergent risks, and reduce reliance on manual enumeration alone.
- Define and own firmware security architecture specifications, informed directly by insights from AI‑driven security discovery rather than policy or checklist‑only approaches.
- Partner deeply with SoC architects, silicon designers, firmware engineers, and OS/virtualization teams to translate discovered risks into concrete mitigations and architectur
