System on Chip Security Architect

Job description

WHAT YOU DO AT AMD CHANGES EVERYTHING At AMD, our mission is to build great products that accelerate next-generation computing experiences – from AI and data centers, to PCs, gaming and embedded systems.

Grounded in a culture of innovation and collaboration, we believe real progress comes from bold ideas, human ingenuity and a shared passion to create something extraordinary.

When you join AMD, you’ll discover the real differentiator is our culture.

We push the limits of innovation to solve the world’s most important challenges—striving for execution excellence, while being direct, humble, collaborative, and inclusive of diverse perspectives.

Join us as we shape the future of AI and beyond.

Together, we advance your career.

The Role: In this SoC Security Architect role you will define the platform and SoC level technologies for a wide breadth of domains including but not limited to cryptographic HW functions, DRAM encryption, virtualization, isolation/sandboxing, life cycle management, secure boot & debug.

In addition, you will work with SoC architects to influence chip architecture to maximize overall PPA efficiency while striving highest security assurance.

The Person: The SoC Product Security Architect is a high-visibility role acting as the end-to-end platform security owner working with chip and system architecture teams to understand current threat models and define the security architecture aligning across AMD IP and SW security roadmap for CPUs, dGPU, datafabric and die-to-die communication as well as hypervisor designs and virtualization technologies.

In addition, the SoC Product Security Architect will coordinate with AMD Product Security Incident Reporting Team (PSIRT) to resolve security incidents for a given family of products.

Key Responsibilities: Work with customers and understand their use cases and requirements and fold that into platform security architecture requirements Keep up to date with AMD IP and SW security roadmap for CPUs, GPU, datafabric and die-to-die communication as well as hypervisor designs and virtualization technologies.

Work with firmware, software, tools teams to understand how use cases are impacted by security policy Deliver relevant security architecture specification sections to broader teams and define requirements for subsystem architects Assess PPA trade-offs for various optimization proposals Define boot and debug security architectures Define device life cycle and key provisioning architectures Deliver relevant security architecture specification sections to broader teams and define requirements for subsystem architects Define a security architecture against the latest threat models Implement security policies (soc register access, memory access, DRM content protection etc) Review validation security test plans Lead security policy violation debug Preferred Experience: Strong understanding of one or more security technologies like ARM TrustZone, Intel TXT, SGX and AMD SEV technologies Deep understanding of threat models and security architecture in soc’s Strong experience working in SoC/ASIC design/validation/architecture Strong system and computer architecture experience Understand of GPU architecture is a plus Familiarity with SoC security technologies for client and server spaces Experience with architecture and design of HW cryptographic accelerators Familiarity with Hypervisor designs and virtualization technologies Strong understanding of cryptographic algorithms and protocols Good understanding of secure boot and firmware update technologies Academic Credentials MS degree in Electrical Engineering/Computer Science; 10 years of practical experience preferred Can be based in Austin, TX or Santa Clara, CA #LI-LB1 Benefits offered are described: AMD benefits at a glance.
