Software Security Engineer (Finance)

The NVIDIA Product Security Team is seeking a hands-on Security Engineer to join the Secure Development Platform team and help deliver scalable solutions that enable secure, efficient, and auditable software releases. We're looking for someone who can promote a "compliance-first" culture while enabling product teams to integrate open source license management, legal policy alignment, and risk remediation earlier in the development lifecycle. This team builds secure platforms supporting program visibility, policy alignment, and automation to meet the scale and complexity of NVIDIA's diverse product ecosystem.

We are looking for a full stack developer helping build and evolve NVIDIA's Legal Compliance Automation Platform. Your mission will be to develop applications and backend services that identify and reduce open source license risk, ensure compatibility with Software Open License (SOL) policies, and streamline legal compliance across NVIDIA's development and release workflows. If you're passionate about building intelligent platforms that bridge legal, engineering, and security requirements - this role is for you!

What You'll Be Doing:

• Design and implement full stack applications to automate secure and compliant software release workflows
• Streamline the legal intake process by simplifying how developers register OSS usage and request license approvals through automation and smarter defaults.
• Build backend services and integrations to detect, assess, and track open source license usage across source code, containers, and binary artifacts.
• Develop APIs and tools that surface license risks to developers early in the lifecycle and enable secure-by-default release pipelines.
• Build agentic workflows that improve license data quality, resolve metadata gaps, and offer guidance for low-risk OSS usage scenarios.
• Integrate with internal platforms for SBOM generation, license risk analysis, vulnerability scanning, and PLC readiness to ensure SOL-aligned releases.
• Contribute to standardizing license classification, remediation workflows, and policy guardrails across teams.
• Collaborate closely with Engineering, Legal, and DevSecOps teams to align platform capabilities with evolving compliance requirements.

What We Need to See:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or equivalent experience.
• 3+ years of software engineering experience, preferably building developer or compliance platforms.
• Proficiency in Python and/or Go for backend services and platform logic.
• Experience designing REST APIs and deploying services in containerized cloud-native environments.
• Familiarity with open source license types (e.g., GPL, Apache, MIT) and their legal implications.
• Strong understanding of SBOM formats (e.g., SPDX, CycloneDX) and license detection tools
• Solid experience with CI/CD workflows and developer toolchains (e.g., GitHub, Jenkins, GitLab).
• Strong collaboration and multi-functional communication skills.

Ways to Stand Out From the Crowd:

• Experience building or integrating AI/agentic systems that support reasoning over license metadata or compliance guidance.
• Hands-on experience with legal compliance platforms, OSS license management, or policy-as-code implementations.
• Frontend proficiency with Angular and/or ReactJS for building intuitive UIs for legal or compliance insights.
• Experience integrating SCA (Software Composition Analysis) tools and managing remediation at scale.
• Background working with legal, open source, or policy governance teams in fast-paced product environments.
