Requirements

Experience with large scale multi-tenant security products
Experience in large scale open-source projects
Assembly/C/C++ experience
Strong SW development fundamentals
Demonstrated grasp of applied cryptography
Excellent skills in problem solving and communication
PhD, Master’s Degree or Bachelor’s Degree in technical subject area

Responsibilities

Design and develop APIs, protocols and services for a multi-tenant confidential compute system
Modify/Extend open source OS/hypervisors for specialized hardware
Create, Implement, Release, and Manage open source SDKs and APIs
Design and develop cryptographic services for licensing and key management
Contribute to open source projects and drive open standards for confidential compute interoperability
Debug large scale workload issues and implement required support for platform security standards

We are working on software, firmware and hardware to evolve the RISC-V ecosystem and build secure-by-design RISC-V based systems.

The security team has the charter to define security requirements for the hardware teams and software teams. We are responsible for providing secure designs for RISC-V as we bring our product vision to life. As a confidential compute engineer on our team, you will develop software and firmware for a high-performance RISC-V-based System to ensure security and privacy requirements are met, for protecting sensitive customer data in multi-tenant environments. You will contribute to enabling Trusted Execution Environments for RISC-V based platforms.

Positions are open for full-time roles in the areas of confidential compute aspects of simulators, OS/hypervisor, orchestration, tools and application runtimes to support TEE workloads.

You will be learning technical and organizational skills from industry veterans: how to write performant and readable code; how to structure and communicate projects, ideas, and progress; how to work effectively with the Open Source community.

We are big proponents of Open Source software and contribute back our improvements to all the great projects we use.

Responsibilities

Design and develop APIs, protocols and services for a multi-tenant confidential compute system.
Modify/Extend open source OS/hypervisors for specialized hardware to support confidential workload security extensions
Create, Implement, Release, and Manage open source Software Development Kits (SDKs), APIs.
Design and develop cryptographic services for licensing, key management, signing, etc for end-to-end solutions
Contribute to open source projects and drive open standards for confidential compute interoperability
Debug large scale workload issues, working in conjunction with other software and hardware engineering teams.
Implementing required support for platform security standards within Confidential Compute Consortium, PCIe, CXL, DMTF, TCG etc.

Requirements

Experience with large scale multi-tenant security products (i.e. threat detection, identity and access, data security, KMS, HSM, Confidential computing).
Experience in large scale open-source projects using multi-tenant environments such as Container runtimes (e.g. Kubernetes, Kata)
Assembly/C/C++ experience; Rust experience is not necessary, but a plus.
Strong SW development fundamentals, including system software, multi-processor systems, caching and virtual memory.
Demonstrated grasp of applied cryptography.
Experience with PKI lifecycle management is a plus.
Experience with RISC-V and Domain-specific architectures is a plus but not required.
Excellent skills in problem solving, written and verbal communication, excellent organization skills, and highly self-motivated.
Ability to work well in a team and be productive under aggressive schedules.
