Nvidia is hiring a
Senior Autonomous Vehicles Engineer - Security

The DRIVE AV Security Team is searching for a Software Security Engineer to develop security features for NVIDIA's ground-breaking solutions in automated driving. You will work with hard-working multi-functional engineering development teams across various vehicle subsystems to ensure our system is crafted to be trustworthy and robust against a steadily evolving threat landscape. You'll find our work exhilarating, fun, and meaningful.

We are the top artificial intelligence computing company and are paving the way with innovations in gaming, visualization, supercomputing and autonomous platforms. As prime team member, you will be a key leader responsible for the security of our autonomous driving software stack. NVIDIA gives automakers, Tier 1 suppliers, automotive research institutions, and start-ups the power and flexibility to develop and deploy breakthrough artificial intelligence systems for self-driving vehicles. Our unified computing architecture enables training deep neural networks in the data center on the NVIDIA DGX-1™, and then seamlessly runs them on NVIDIA DRIVE AGX inside the vehicle. Today, we are working with over 270 partners that are using our platform in the development of autonomous cars, trucks, shuttles and taxis. We have turning points, customers, and competition.
