At NVIDIA, we are stewards of AI. Agents are now a crucial part of cybersecurity where NVIDIA collaborates to set the standard. As model functionality increases and the cybersecurity landscape evolves, we need agents that can seamlessly interface between humans, models, and computing artifacts to build secure environments.

Our Agentic & AI Cybersecurity Research team at NVIDIA is seeking a Senior Engineer. This hands-on role suits someone who transforms sophisticated problems and basic prototypes into practical solutions. They work with research, security, product, and partner teams to build lasting code bases.

What you will be doing:

• Building leading software ahead of the curve to accelerate and improve cybersecurity tooling for AI.
• Collaborating closely with research teams and product teams to be responsible for development of research code into alpha versions of products.
• Rapidly identifying the highest-value MVP for ambiguous security and identity problems, prototyping solutions, validating them with partner teams, and iterating towards production-ready services.
• Developing reusable skills, CLI tools, APIs, and integration patterns to help internal teams embrace secure agent approaches across enterprise tools and platforms.
• Partnering closely with teams across Enterprise Security, Product Security, Enterprise AI, Enterprise Product, and relevant platform teams to align architecture with real workflow needs and operational constraints.

What we need to see:

• Bachelor’s degree or Master’s degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science or a related field.
• 8+ years in software engineering, security engineering, or related areas, including hands-on technical leadership.
• Excellent software engineering skills, including crafting and building backend services, APIs, automation, or platform components in various programming environments. The role requires quickly learning new paradigms, frameworks, and tools as needed.
• Experience with multi-contributor software projects and long-running software projects.
• Familiarity with building agents, AI tooling, and architectures.
• Track record of framing problem spaces, defining an MVP, prototyping quickly, and evolving ideas into production systems.
• Familiarity with offensive security, adversarial thinking, red teaming, or attack-path analysis, capable of applying that perspective to architecture decisions and security tradeoffs.
• Flexibility and willingness to frequently collaborate across organizational boundaries, balancing security with usability and adoption.
