- Staff Engineers: 8+ years of experience in security software engineering, including architecture, cross-functional leadership, or platform ownership in autonomy, robotics, or embedded systems
- Proficiency in programming languages such as C/C++ or Rust and hands-on experience securing embedded Linux systems
- Solid understanding of cryptographic primitives and protocols (keys, certificates, signatures, TLS, and mutual TLS) and experience integrating them into real systems
- Experience with hardware security modules, secure boot, and system-level software spanning kernel and bootloader
