About the role
Working as part of the SoC Offensive Security team, you will perform adversarial security assessments across multiple projects by reviewing architectural specifications, evaluating pre- and post-silicon platforms, conducting firmware security analysis, and collaborating with development teams to uncover security weaknesses that traditional SDL processes may overlook.
What they're looking for
- Strong knowledge of SoC architecture and IP integration
- Thread modeling standalone IPs and Subsystems. Candidate should have experience enumerating micro-architectural attack surfaces and SoC integration concerns
- Demonstrated experience conducting adversarial assessments (PoCs, exploits, CTFs, published work)
- Practical experience with SystemVerilog RTL, UVM-based validation environments and HW Dev IDEs
- Comfortable reusing current verification environments and adapting them for negative and offensive testing
- Hands-on lab experience setting up development and testing platforms, delivering security evaluations, and validating findings in practical environments
