Senior System Software Engineer, GPU Firmware

is sounds interesting and you're up for the task, we'd certainly like to hear from you!

What you'll be doing:

• Design, develop, test, debug, and optimize GPU firmware throughout the entire GPU lifecycle.

• Design and implement creative solutions for boot software.

• Collaborate with hardware, software, and business teams to transform new firmware features from idea to reality.

• Interact with leading OS and PC vendors to improve and innovate on the startup experience.

• Improve team software process and core infrastructure via projects dealing with build systems and regression farms.

• Continuously evaluate and improve security for firmware that functions as a root of trust for flash and boot security.

• Facilitate security requirements for GPU products by driving compliance with industry standards such as NIST, Open Compute Project, etc.

• Align with customers and partners on security requirements and features.

• Work with hardware teams to improve NVIDIA's GPU hardware security.

What we need to see:

• BS or MS degree or equivalent experience in EE/CS/CE.

• 4+ years' experience in developing device BIOS, firmware, or other low-level software.

• Strong C skills.

• Even stronger communication skills.

• Sense of humor heavily encouraged, but not required.

• Deep understanding of software process.

• Secure software fundamentals including cryptography, authentication/attestation, chains of trust, and understanding of common SW security vulnerabilities.

• Easy to work with, as you'll constantly work closely with both hardware designers and other software engineers to design, develop, and debug functional (and non-functional!) aspects of GPU subsystems.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Experience in x86 assembly and in-depth knowledge of the PC architecture.

• Expertise with display technologies such as DP, HDMI, and VGA/VESA specs.

• Proficient with PCI/PCIe architecture.

• Experience working on protocols like MCTP, PLDM, SPDM, etc

• Good knowledge on developing for UEFI environments.

We are widely considered to be one of the technology world's most desirable employers, and as a result have some of the most brilliant and talented people in the world working for us. If you're clever, creative, and driven, we'd love to have you join the team.
