Infrastructure Security Engineering Lead — EDA Clusters

NVIDIA; Westford (MA); On-site; USD 320,000 - 489,000; Full time

Job summary

NVIDIA is seeking an engineering leader to build and run Infrastructure Security Engineering for EDA Clusters, spanning on-prem data centers and multi-cloud environments. You’ll translate security intent into controls that don’t slow chip design, owning production security at scale.

Lead a team to implement security across compute, storage, and networking, with a bias toward practical, proven results and secure-by-default infrastructure.

Qualifications

• 12+ overall years building and operating production infrastructure at scale - network, compute clusters, and storage including 5+ years leading and managing engineering teams.
• Deep networking expertise applied to large compute environments.
• Hands-on depth operating compute fleets at scale - provisioning, lifecycle, and the operational realities of long-running, high-value jobs.
• Deep understanding of hyperscaler methodologies for operating large-scale systems with security and reliability as co-equal goals.
• Experience securing performance-sensitive or high-throughput environments where standard agent-based tooling was constrained.

Responsibilities

• Build and lead the team. Grow and direct a team of engineers with a bias toward practical, production-proven results, and develop the leaders within it. Own the technical roadmap. Partner with various other security teams and infrastructure engineering to architect the roadmap for EDA-specific security controls and ship them into production.
• Make the network and platform your control plane. Protection doesn’t depend just on what’s running inside the node.
• Engineer around hard constraints. Determine where conventional endpoint and workload security tooling fits, where it doesn’t, and design the alternative: security that protects multi-day compute jobs without degrading them.
• Make enforcement uniform. Drive consistent application of security frameworks across on-prem data centers and multi-cloud platforms where consistent means enforced, not documented.
• Run the full lifecycle of core infrastructure security technologies: selection, deployment, operation, and eventual replacement.
• Automate the evidence. Build the KPIs, instrumentation, and audit workflows that make security posture across EDA systems continuously visible treating compliance evidence as an engineering output, not a manual exercise.
• Think like an adversary. Mitigation planning across network, storage, and compute.
• Champion security by design, embedding automation and secure defaults into the infrastructure lifecycle instead of bolting them on afterward.
