You will establish and guide the identity framework that safeguards developers, services, and AI agents throughout NVIDIA's worldwide infrastructure across cloud, on-premises, and managed device settings. This is a high-impact, multi-functional position linking security architecture, platform engineering, and AI infrastructure. You will work closely with engineering leads in device management, identity governance, and platform teams to develop technical strategy and operational responsibility. Your focus will be on modernizing authentication patterns for agentic AI and developer-scale workflows. What You'll Be Doing: + Lead enterprise identity strategy and platform architecture, encompassing cloud identity, directory services, and the transition of applications to modern authentication standards (OAuth 2.0, OIDC, SAML). + Define and implement reference architectures for secure authentication across CLI, browser, and agentic workflows. + Architect and stand up a centralized token issuance and validation service for developer and CLI workflows, ensuring consistent trust and verification across device and session contexts. + Establish agent identities as an outstanding element within the identity platform, enabling robust access control and audit-ability for automated and machine-assisted workflows. + Build and implement advanced identity security controls such as Conditional Access policies, Privileged Identity Management (PIM), and risk-based authentication. + Scale device management and identity governance systems to meet the rapidly growing demands of AI-powered operations. Ensure reliability, performance, and compliance across large organizational environments. + Partner with multi-functional collaborators across security, infrastructure, and product teams to align on architecture, build strategy, and operational ownership. ## Related Videos - [Keeping applications secure by evolving OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100152-keeping-applications-secure-by-evolving-oauth-2-0-and-openid-connect) - [Building, securing and governing AI infrastructure in the Era of Agentic AI](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100129-building-securing-and-governing-ai-infrastructure-in-the-era-of-agentic-ai) - [Swapping Low Latency Data Storage Under High Load](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/746-swapping-low-latency-data-storage-under-high-load) - [Get started with securing your cloud-native Java microservices applications](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/123-get-started-with-securing-your-cloud-native-java-microservices-applications) - [Delay the AI Overlords: How OAuth and OpenFGA Can Keep Your AI Agents from Going Rogue](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1637-delay-the-ai-overlords-how-oauth-and-openfga-can-keep-your-ai-agents-from-going-rogue) - [Decoding Trends: Strategies for Success in the Evolving Digital Domain](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1098-decoding-trends-strategies-for-success-in-the-evolving-digital-domain) ## Related Articles - [9 Ways to Make Money Hacking](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/333-9-ways-to-make-money-hacking) - [Events like RSAC Get You CISOs.
