ABOUT THE JOB
We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to bridge the gap between security operations, platform architecture, and product delivery. In this role, you will hold a high-impact, cross-functional position, collaborating directly with our Firmware, Platform, OS, Experience (Client/App), and Cloud teams.
You will not just be pointing out vulnerabilities—you will be an active engineering partner. You will integrate security tooling directly into our CI/CD pipelines, triage findings, write proof-of-concepts, and partner closely with Feature Teams and Product Owners to design, implement, and verify secure fixes across the entire hardware-to-cloud lifecycle.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
Automate Security in CI/CD: Architect, integrate, and maintain automated security tooling (SAST, DAST, SCA, Secret Scanning, and SBOM generation) within modern CI/CD pipelines.
Triage & Vulnerability Management: Ingest findings from automated tools, internal testing, and external disclosures. Distinguish signal from noise, evaluate risk, and translate raw alerts into actionable Jira tickets with clear remediation guidance.
Cross-Team Remediation: Act as the technical security authority for Product Owners, feature engineers, and engineering managers to prioritize and implement secure fixes without sacrificing product velocity.
Silicon-to-Cloud Threat Modeling: Lead threat modeling sessions and architectural security reviews for components spanning bare-metal firmware, custom Android OS layers, client apps, and cloud backends.
Incident Response & Research: Participate in product security incident response (PSIRT), conduct root-cause analysis, and occasionally perform vulnerability research, fuzzing, and reverse engineering on internal targets.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
8+ years of software engineering experience with a heavy focus on security, systems engineering, or DevSecOps.
Demonstrated Track Record: Proven experience integrating security automation into build pipelines and successfully collaborating with software teams to patch vulnerabilities.
Languages: Proficiency in at least two of the following: C/C++, Rust, Go, Python, or C#.
DevSecOps & Cloud: Hands-on experience with modern CI/CD tools (GitHub Actions, CircleCI) and cloud environments (AWS or Azure), with knowledge of Terraform and Kubernetes.
Soft Skills: Exceptional cross-functional leadership, communication, and stakeholder management skills. You know how to talk about risk with Product Managers and technical trade-offs with Principal Engineers.
Must Be Clearance Eligible
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
Proven ability to deliver high-quality results at pace, ideally within a startup or high-growth environment
Experience integrating Unity-based applications with external hardware or systems (drones, robotics, sensors, wearables, or other edge devices)
Familiarity with real-time data streaming, message passing, or protocols commonly used for system-to-system communication (e.g., gRPC, Protobuf, MQTT, WebSockets, ROS)
Experience working with cross-platform or cross-service integrations, including consuming and designing APIs/SDKs across engineering teams
Android development experience below the application layer
A strong understanding of how software interacts with hardware, from device drivers and firmware interfaces up through the application layer
Professional software development lifecycle experience using tools such as version control, CI/CD systems, and automated testing frameworks
