## About the role

Sentry Towers are deployed to secure perimeters, some in contexts where the tower itself is a sensitive asset and physical access by an adversary is a realistic threat. That makes product security a hardware-and-software problem, not a policy exercise: if someone can pull a drive, attach a serial cable, plug in USB, or interrupt the bootloader, the design has to hold. We’re hiring a Senior Software Engineer to own product security for the tower platform. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- 4+ years of professional software engineering with a security focus on Linux or embedded systems
- Hands-on experience implementing a secure boot chain: code signing, chain of trust, UEFI Secure Boot or an equivalent vendor secure boot implementation
- Practical cryptographic engineering skills: PKI and certificate hierarchies, HSM or PKCS#11-backed signing, key lifecycle management, and full-disk encryption
- Strong Linux internals knowledge, particularly in patching, boot flow, kernel and initrd, systemd, privilege boundaries, and filesystem and device access control
- Proficiency in C or Rust, plus the ability to work fluently in shell
- Practical hardening and vulnerability-management experience on real systems: attack-surface reduction, CVE triage on a deployed fleet, and live patching strategies that don’t break the product
