Principal Cyber Security Engineer - Agentic Identity and Security

At NVIDIA, AI agents are becoming part of how work gets done across engineering and enterprise workflows! As these systems begin to access tools, call APIs, and participate in multi-step operations, the identity and security controls built primarily for human users need to evolve to support non-human and agent-driven workflows safely and reliably.

We are seeking a Principal Engineer to help define and build core agentic identity capabilities that enable trusted AI agents across NVIDIA’s internal ecosystem. This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who can turn complex problems into practical designs, quickly prototype solutions, and work across identity, security, platform, and application teams to bring the right infrastructure into production.

What you will be doing:

• Architect and build agent identity security features for agent use cases across cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments. Apply relevant standards and patterns where possible. Rapidly prototype, validate, and iterate on innovative ways when gaps remain, such as credential brokering, token exchange, delegation, workload identity, and lifecycle management.
• Rapidly identify the highest-value MVP for ambiguous security and identity problems, prototype solutions, validate them with partner teams, and iterate toward production-ready services.
• Build reusable skills, CLI tools, APIs, and integration patterns that help internal teams embrace secure agent identity approaches across enterprise tools and platforms.
• Partner closely with teams across Enterprise Security, Product Security, Enterprise AI, Enterprise Product and relevant platform teams to align architecture with real workflow needs and operational constraints.
• Contribute to architectural direction, reviews, and engineering standards for agentic identity and related security infrastructure across the company.
• Help evaluate emerging standards, open-source technologies, and vendor capabilities in agentic identity, and translate the relevant pieces into pragmatic internal builds and roadmap recommendations.
