You will apply your expertise in detailed security evaluation of merchant silicon, your creativity in creating & driving secured and hardened platform solutions. You will collaborate across engineering development functional teams to create leading edge, cohesive and executable hardware security architectures and solutions.
Position Overview
Our organization is looking for a highly motivated, dedicated Senior Principal Engineer to run security architecture within a hardware design organization and to develop, implement, and own the hardware design security lifecycle program from concept through development, integration, introduction to production, deployment, and end of life decommissioning. of Cloud and Enterprise.
Career Level - IC4
Responsibilities- Singular point-of-contact owning responsibility for every dimension of security related to Oracle-engineered hardware
- Serve as security subject matter expert for key custom hardware security components such as root-of-trust (RoT) hardware, for both peer customer organizations and the wider hardware organization
- Lead key hardware-focused security projects in conjunction with Oracle firmware and Oracle cloud teams
- Establish, maintain, and report out on the operational status on the implementation of security related features within the hardware organization, across teams
- Define, promote, and improve processes to build security into Oracle hardware designs
- Enable the hardware organization to develop deeper security expertise relevant to their roles

- Work with Oracle manufacturing teams to ensure that Oracle hardware is secure by default
What This Role Looks Like
- Work directly with hardware design and development teams on architecture, implementation, deployment, and troubleshooting of server hardware security designs and architectures.
- Develop, implement, own, and run the day-to-day execution of a security review program and process that is "baked-in" to the hardware design process, and conduct security reviews on system schematics and layouts as necessary along the development process, intercepting with reviews and security focused recommendations as early as feasible.
- Work closely and collaborate with other security points of contact inside and outside of the business unit, who cover areas of responsibility including BMC software stacks, system firmware, custom security hardware & firmware, cloud infrastructure security features, and more, as well as inter- and intra-org security architects.
- Develop and deliver informational & educational content on security topics, with a focus on hardware security and enabling hardware designers & developers at all levels within the org to think security" in a practical way in their daily roles.
- Own and operate a long-term educational outreach program within the Hardware Design & Development organization that continues to raise the level of security awareness of all team members, as well as equips them with self-driven security analysis and skills relevant to their role. Coordinate with team leads, management, external training and educational service vendors, etc.
Required Qualifications
- Experience with the architecture, design, and implementation of modern server platforms consisting of multiple architectures and vendors, including, but not limited to, x86 (with both Intel and AMD parts) and ARM server architectures.
- Hands-on experience in an adversarial hardware security domain as applied to servers/systems, CPU architecture, modern compute infrastructure management subsystems, embedded systems, etc.
- Experience with understanding, analyzing, and communicating hardware security vulnerabilities, attacks, and research to hardware design communities and audiences, consisting of varied roles and responsibilities (e.g., architects, senior designers, junior design staff, technicians, etc.).
