Employment In Israel Jobs in Portland, OR (NOW HIRING)

Job Details:Job Description: 

We are seeking aSr. Security Architectto drivesecurity architecture for Client and Data Center SoCs, with a primary focus onusingAIdriventools tobuild Specifications, Code,Test, andanalyzesecurity vulnerabilities at scale.This role defines howmodern AI techniques are applied to securitysystemsacross firmware andlowlevelsystem hardware/software-augmenting and surpassing traditional manualdevelopment andreview. The successful candidate is a recognized technical expert who can combinedeep SOC/Platform securityexpertisewithhandsonuse ofAIbasedanalysis toolstobuild, test anduncover real security flaws, systemic risks, andcrosslayerattack paths early in the product lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities

• Serve as the technical leadforSOC security architectureacross Client and Data Center SOC/platform Definition:
• Boot ROMs, secure and measured boot flows
• Hardware-firmware-OS chains of trust
• AI Accelerator Security for Client NPU

Lead security discovery usingAIbasedanalysis tools, with explicit responsibility for:

• Identifyingfirmware andlowlevelvulnerabilities at scale
• Discovering insecure coding patterns and flawed design assumptions
• Uncoveringcrosslayerattack paths spanning silicon, firmware, and system software

ApplyAIassistedcode reasoning andlargescaleanalysisto:

• Rapidly analyze large firmware and platform codebases
• Explore edge cases, rare failure modes, and adversarial scenarios
• Assess security impact of design choices and implementation tradeoffs
• Drivefirmwarefocusedthreat modeling, enhanced by AI tools that broaden coverage,identifyemergent risks, and reduce reliance on manual enumeration alone.
• Define and ownfirmware security architecture specifications, informed directly by insights fromAIdrivensecurity discovery rather than policy orchecklistonlyapproaches.
• Partner deeply withSoC architects, silicon designers, firmware engineers, and OS/virtualization teamsto translate discovered risks into concrete mitigations and architectural guidanceand specifications.
• Shape platform and product security roadmaps byidentifyingsystemic firmware and SoC risks revealed throughAIscaleanalysisacross multiple products and generations.
• Mentor senior engineers and architects, settingbest practices forAIenabledsecurity discovery, analysis, and review.

What Success Looks Like:

• Client and Data Center SoCs ship withresilient firmware security architectures grounded in real analysis.
• AIdriven security capabilities definition becomes acore pillar of firmware and SoC security practice, not a supplemental tool across multiple domains. (PMC, ESE, Punit, MCHECKetc)
• Firmware and platform security issues aresystematically discovered earlier, with broader and deeper coverage than traditional review methods.
• Engineering teams rely on this role as theauthoritative voice on firmware security and AIenabled security discovery strategies.
