  • Strong cross‑functional collaboration skills working across hardware, software, firmware, and business units with excellent communication abilities
  • Experience with AMD security technologies and data center security architecture
  • Knowledge of hardware security modules, secure element architectures, and security certification processes (FIPS, Common Criteria)
  • Background in security research, academic publications, or leading security architecture teams
