NVIDIA is seeking a highly motivated system software engineer with a strong bias toward security tooling, infrastructure, and quality to join the GPU Software team. In this role, you will design and build automation frameworks and services that enable secure GPU firmware development at scale—spanning fuzzing infrastructure, signing and chain-of-trust workflows, key management and derivation (including HSM integration), and regression testing automation. You'll partner closely with software engineers worldwide to maintain and scale our fuzzing infrastructure platform, deploy reliable security services and automation on modern infrastructure platforms (CI/CD, Kubernetes, and cloud environments), and promote AI technologies to improve developer experience and productivity across the GPU security toolchain.
ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES
What you'll be doing:
- Maintain and scale fuzzing infrastructure, onboarding new fuzzers, optimizing coverage and performance, and collaborating cross-functionally with security, QA, and product teams to integrate fuzzing into development workflows.
- Design, develop, and integrate security infrastructure for GPU firmware signing, key management and derivation services, incorporating HSMs and collaborating with hardware and software engineers around the world.
- Evangelize and implement AI powered technologies and workflows to enhance developer experience, productivity, and code quality; exploring opportunities for AI assisted testing, code generation, and intelligent automation.
- Develop and automate regression testing platforms and tools to improve productivity, reliability, and coverage across GPU security components and workflows.
- Design, build, deploy, and monitor security automation frameworks and services (e.g., signing, key management, fuzzing automation), integrating with CI/CD pipelines and Kubernetes-based infrastructure.
- Build out design verification, simulation, quality, and developer workflow capabilities for the GPU Systems Software teams.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
What we need to see:
- BS or MS degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related degree (or equivalent experience).
- 3+ years of relevant software tooling and infrastructure experience, especially with security or testing focus.
- Demonstrated hands-on technical background; strong scripting skills (Shell, Python) for automation, diagnostics, and workflow integration.
- Working knowledge of designing, deploying, operating, and maintaining CI/CD pipelines and jobs (e.g., build, test, signing, fuzzing, release promotion), including troubleshooting and reliability improvements.
- Relevant experience with tooling and infrastructure technologies like Docker, Kubernetes, Ansible, Jenkins, GitLab CI, Artifactory, SQL/NoSQL databases.
- Experience with at least one of: fuzzing technologies, cryptography, key management, firmware development, or embedded security.
- Familiarity with computer system architecture, microprocessor, and microcontroller fundamentals (caches, buses, memory controllers, DMA, etc.).
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
Ways to stand out from the crowd:
- Hands-on experience with fuzzing frameworks and tools (AFL, libFuzzer, Syzkaller, or similar) and corpus management strategies.
- Experience integrating AI/ML technologies into developer workflows or productivity tools.
- Hands on experience with C, C++, Python, Rust.
- Familiarity with cryptography, security policies, chain of trust, key laddering, and HSMs.
- Experience with test automation frameworks, regression testing platforms, and continuous testing practices.
COMPENSATION
Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is 124,000 USD - 195,500 USD for Level 2, and 152,000 USD - 241,500 USD for Level 3.
You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.
Applications for this job will be accepted at least until April 5, 2026.

Get Access To All JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Which legal companies sponsor E-3 visas in California?
Large international law firms with California offices, including those operating across Los Angeles and San Francisco, have the most established E-3 sponsorship processes. Major technology companies headquartered in Silicon Valley, such as Google, Apple, and Meta, also sponsor E-3 visas for in-house legal and compliance roles. Multinational corporations with California-based legal departments are another reliable source, as their global hiring experience makes them familiar with the E-3 process.
Which cities in California have the most legal E-3 sponsorship jobs?
San Francisco and Los Angeles account for the largest share of legal E-3 sponsorship opportunities in California. San Francisco benefits from proximity to Silicon Valley's technology companies, which regularly hire in-house counsel and compliance professionals. Los Angeles has a strong entertainment, media, and real estate legal market. San Diego also has an active legal sector, particularly in life sciences and defense, which generates demand for specialized legal roles.
What types of legal roles typically qualify for E-3 sponsorship?
Roles that qualify for E-3 sponsorship must meet the specialty occupation requirement, meaning a specific bachelor's degree or higher in a relevant field is normally a minimum entry-level requirement. In the legal sector, this includes associate attorney positions, in-house counsel roles, compliance officers, contract managers, and legal analysts. General administrative or paralegal positions that do not require a relevant degree at the entry level are less likely to qualify.
How do I find legal E-3 sponsorship jobs in California?
Migrate Mate is specifically built for international job seekers on work visas, including Australians seeking E-3 sponsorship, and filters legal jobs in California by visa type. Searching on Migrate Mate lets you identify employers in California's legal sector that have actively sponsored E-3 or similar work visas, which is a more targeted approach than general job boards. Filtering by industry and state helps you focus on firms and companies with demonstrated sponsorship experience.
Are there any California-specific considerations for legal E-3 sponsorship?
Australian lawyers working as attorneys in California must be admitted to the California State Bar, which requires passing the California Bar Examination regardless of Australian qualifications. This is separate from the E-3 visa process and can affect which roles you can formally practice law in. Some employers will sponsor an E-3 for a legal role while bar admission is pending, but this depends on the employer and the nature of the position. Confirming bar admission requirements with the California State Bar directly is advisable before applying for attorney-specific roles.
What is the prevailing wage for E-3 legal jobs in California?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
