Today, NVIDIA is tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing. An era in which our GPU acts as the brains of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can understand the world. Doing what's never been done before takes vision, innovation, and the world's best talent. As an NVIDIAN, you'll be immersed in a diverse, encouraging environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work.

Drive OS is NVIDIA's central computing software stack designed for the next generation of software defined vehicles in which multiple vehicle domains are hosted on a single hardware computing platform. The DRIVE OS security team is heavily engaged in defining the security architecture of this software platform to ensure that the software defined vehicles of tomorrow are not only operating at the highest performance level, but also achieving high resiliency to cyber attacks. The Drive OS Automotive Software team is looking for a Principal Security Architect to help secure NVIDIA's vehicle central computer software platform. This platform features multiple vehicle domains on a single computing platform running mixed criticality safety and security software enabled by cutting edge virtualization technology. You will work with hardworking and dedicated multi-functional engineering development teams across various vehicle software domains to integrate their work into our DRIVE OS platform, while achieving or exceeding all relevant NVIDIA and automotive standards and guidelines. You'll find the work is exciting, fun, meaningful and challenging!
