Our software tools enable companies around the world to develop highly innovative electronic products faster and more cost-effectively. Our customers use our tools to push the boundaries of technology and physics to deliver better products in the increasingly complex world of chip, board, and system design.\nPosition Overview\nWe are seeking a highly motivated, creative, and energetic engineer with a background in analog/digital circuit design and verification, with emphasis on hardware/software security to strengthen our research and development team. Security is an important aspect for solutions being deployed for silicon lifecycle management. We are looking for a candidate who is a hardware security expert and can help protect our test IPs and Test Access Mechanisms (TAMs) against cyber-attacks. Our system-wide DFT, in-system testing, silicon monitoring, bring-up, and debug infrastructure helps silicon engineering teams ensure their products do what they were designed and trusted to do, safely and securely throughout product lifecycle.\nYou will be responsible for designing secure architecture, implementing cryptographic and authentication mechanisms, and performing adversarial assessments to find vulnerabilities. You will work with a team that develops hardware, software and diagnostic/analytic solutions to ensure that silicon systems are fully testable from manufacturing to at-scale deployment with the ability to detect silicon defects and anomalies and provide actionable insights to system operators.\nYou will be responsible for architecting and designing security mechanisms and cyber security IP, designing overall security architecture and framework, and specifying HW/SW interfaces and security SW stack. You will be advising and collaborating with a team of experienced HW and SW engineers to accomplish this goal. You may be asked to serve on Security advisory committees and task groups within Siemens EDA as well as outside. You will discuss the silicon security requirements of Siemens EDA customers and convert the requirements into concrete specifications that can be implemented by the cross-functional team.\nYou will be working as part of an international team with fellow software and hardware development engineers, as well as quality assurance, customer support, documentation, and product marketing engineers. Together we continuously strive to develop innovative products using the latest tools and technologies across different areas including Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. You will have the opportunity to responsibly lead our overall security strategy that adds significant value to our products and solutions and further improve your personal and professional skills and knowledge.\nKey Responsibilities\nDesign and architect secure hardware and firmware solutions to defend against physical and side-channel threats\nImplement cryptographic and authentication mechanisms across silicon lifecycle management solutions\nPerform adversarial assessments and security testing to identify and remediate vulnerabilities\nArchitect and design overall security architecture and framework for hardware and firmware systems\nSpecify HW/SW interfaces and security software stack requirements\nAdvise and collaborate with hardware and software engineering teams on security implementations\nServe on Security advisory committees and task groups within Siemens EDA and external organizations\nConvert customer silicon security requirements into concrete technical specifications for cross-functional teams\nLead overall security strategy initiatives that add significant value to products and solutions\nQualifications\nVery good understanding of digital and analog design and flows\nExperience with design and development of secure hardware and firmware solutions to defend against physical and side-channel threats\nExperience with implementing hardware roots-of-trust, secure boot, secure key storage, and hardware-accelerated encryption mechanisms\nKnowledge of cryptography primitives, side-channel attacks, and fault injection methods\nExpertise in hardware design, Verilog and System-Verilog\nDemonstrated strong analytical and creative problem-solving skills\nGood oral and written communication skills in English\nAdditional Experiences of Advantage\nHands-on experience in semiconductor design\nKnowledge of design flows and EDA tools in areas such as HDL simulation, logic synthesis, integrated circuit (IC) place and route, timing analysis (STA), logic equivalence checking, CDC and RDC\nAI/ML tools and packages (TensorFlow, Pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn, ChatGPT, etc.)\nUnderstanding of FPGA hardware, Jenkins CI and Docker\nKnowledge of embedded systems\nWhy Us\nWe are Siemens:\nAt Siemens Software, flexibility is how we work-hybrid by default, built on trust and autonomy. Together, 30,000 people across more than 200 countries build technology that shapes the real world.\nYou'll grow through real projects, strong technical peers, and global mobility, backed by the scale and benefits of an industrial software leader. We're committed to equality and inclusion, and we hire based on merit, skills, and impact. Bring your curiosity and creativity and help us shape tomorrow!\nOur Benefits & Rewards\nThe salary range for this position is GBP 100,300to GBP 175,400 and this role is eligible to earn incentive compensation.
