Staff Hardware Security Engineer

The SoC Architecture team is responsible for defining high-performance and power efficient System-on-Chip hardware architecture.

The team identifies Hardware Requirements, defines the overall SoC system and delivers High-level Architecture Specification (HAS) integrating multiple processing units, memory, interconnects, accelerators, interfaces and peripherals to achieve optimal Power, Performance, Area and Cost (PPAC) efficiency. The team is also responsible for overall aspects of security, debug, production test and device packaging and for defining and maintaining Configuration Management processes for scalable and configurable architectures.

The team works closely with Product, Technology, Software and AI, and Hardware Engineering Teams for Design Implementation and Verification.

The Role :

You will be responsible for all aspects of Hardware Security, throughout the Concept, Definition, and Specification of Hardware Architecture. In this team your responsibility will include, but not limited, to :

• Architect and define overall SoC including processing units, hardware accelerators, memory, interconnect, interfaces and analog components.
• Work hand in hand with the product architects making sure hardware architecture meets the product goals.
• Support the implementation of Security features and the intersection of security features with all aspects of Hardware Architecture and Design and Software implementation.
• The development of hardware architecture security models involves mapping reference models and adversarial models, while also addressing the security objectives of the ecosystem.
• Security considerations encompass a range of elements, including but not limited to the identification of assets, mapping use cases and threats, and the development of a Trusted Computing Base (TCB) with a Root of Trust(RoT). Key aspects also include secure boot processes, data protection measures, isolation and attestation solutions, detection of data compromises, and the integration of security features and intellectual properties (IPs).
• Conduct system-level modelling and analysis to optimise for power, performance, area and cost.
• Evaluate new processes, technologies, trends, and industry standards.
• Perform hard and soft IP identification, analysis and selection.
• Lead architecture definition, reviews and provide technical guidance.
• Work with peer micro architect across the organization aligning product and architecture definition.
• Collaborate with design implementation, verification, physical design, software and firmware teams for development and design convergence.
• Support SoC execution across project milestones working with all cross functional teams to identify and drive complex dependencies resolution.
• Define and develop system-level methodologies, tools, and IPs to build SoCs in an efficient and scalable manner.
• This role requires a talent for cross-functional collaboration, where effective communication and engagement are essential throughout the entire Product Development process, with a strong emphasis on security.
