AMD is building a hardware‑assisted security platform that uses silicon‑level Performance Monitoring Counters (PMCs) and on‑chip machine learning to detect advanced endpoint threats (including ransomware, fileless malware, and cryptojacking) at the processor layer, below the operating system, making it resistant to OS‑level evasion techniques.

The platform collects CPU behavioral telemetry, classifies it using an ML inference engine, and exposes threat signals to security software partners through a standardized API. The team is responsible for the entire technology stack, including silicon telemetry, ML training and validation, real‑time inference, laboratory qualification, and CI/CD.

• Own the technical architecture of the end‑to‑end hardware threat detection platform, including the PMU/IBS kernel driver, ML inference pipeline, partner SDK, and hardware attestation.
• Define and enforce technical quality standards, including detection efficacy KPIs (detection rate and false‑positive rate), performance budgets (CPU overhead), and API backward compatibility.
• Lead cross‑functional architectural decisions spanning silicon, kernel drivers, machine learning, and real‑time processing pipelines.
• Own the partner SDK strategy and maintain technical relationships with security software integration partners.
• Lead efficacy validation across malware variant test suites.
• Mentor SMTS‑level engineers across laboratory, ML, real‑time, and CI/CD teams.
• Represent the platform in external technical forums and partner engagements.
• Identify and mitigate program‑level technical risks.

• 12+ years of progressive engineering experience, including at least 5 years in a technical leadership or Principal Engineer role.
• Deep expertise in:
• CPU microarchitecture and performance monitoring.
• Machine learning systems and inference pipeline engineering.
• Systems software and kernel development.
• Endpoint security platform architecture.
• Proven experience leading multidisciplinary engineering efforts from inception to production.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to engage effectively with executive stakeholders, engineering teams, and external partners.
• Experience defining program‑level KPIs and technical quality gates.

• Experience with hardware‑assisted security technologies on any major processor architecture.
• Background in endpoint security research, malware analysis, or enterprise‑scale threat intelligence.
• Experience with AMD silicon or AMD security processor technologies.
• Patent portfolio or published research in hardware security or machine learning for cybersecurity.
• Experience managing technical programs with external security software partners, including joint engineering, certification, and go‑to‑market initiatives.
