Senior System Software Engineer, Tegra Security Software
We are seeking a Senior System Software Engineer to lead the design, development, and integration of security-focused software for advanced embedded and automotive computing platforms. In this role, you will work across firmware, operating systems, hardware security, and platform software to deliver robust solutions that protect devices throughout their lifecycle. You will collaborate with architects, hardware engineers, kernel developers, validation teams, and external technology partners to define requirements and transform them into reliable, production-ready implementations.
Your responsibilities will include developing and maintaining low-level system software for secure boot, trusted execution environments, key management, device authentication, cryptographic services, secure firmware updates, and platform security monitoring. You will analyse complex security and performance issues across bootloaders, operating system components, drivers, and hardware-backed security features. The role also involves reviewing designs and code, creating technical specifications, defining verification strategies, supporting bring-up on new silicon, and diagnosing issues using debugging and trace tools. You will help establish engineering best practices and may provide technical leadership and mentoring to other team members.
Applicants should have a degree in computer science, computer engineering, or a related discipline, together with substantial experience developing system software in C or C++ for embedded or Linux-based platforms. Strong knowledge of operating-system concepts, computer architecture, secure boot, trusted computing, cryptography, and common security vulnerabilities is expected. Experience with bootloaders, firmware, device drivers, hardware security modules, trusted platform technologies, or safety-critical development is highly valuable. Familiarity with Python or scripting, Git-based workflows, continuous integration, and software debugging tools is desirable. You should be comfortable working independently on complex problems, communicating clearly with cross-functional teams, and balancing security, performance, reliability, and maintainability in a fast-paced engineering environment.
