## About the role

Selling autonomous systems into manufacturing, infrastructure, and logistics means our customers audit us before they trust us — security and compliance are a precondition for deploying our platform, not a function beside it.

## What they're looking for

- Professional experience in security engineering, infrastructure/platform engineering, or a closely related technical role — broad competence across security, networking, and operating systems, with real depth in at least one
- Security fundamentals — trust boundaries and blast radius, authentication vs. authorization, least privilege, secrets handling, and judging real-world exploitability of findings
- Networking — diagnosing connectivity issues across routing, firewalls/security groups, DNS, TLS termination, and proxies, comfortable with VPN/private connectivity and packet captures
- Linux operating systems — processes, filesystems, permissions, systemd, resource limits, log analysis, and how containers relate to the host
- Cloud infrastructure — hands-on with AWS or GCP beyond the console: IAM, networking, compute, and their failure modes
- Strong scripting/automation skills (Python, Bash, Go, or similar) — recurring manual work gets scripted away, not tracked by hand
