Senior Software Engineer

U.S. Citizenship is required. Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Government Security Clearance. BS or MS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field, or equivalent experience. Prior work on a shipped, commercial Rust project in production. Deep knowledge of Linux systems programming, including kernel interaction, hardware optimization, and system-level debugging. Proficiency with Git and modern CI/CD practices. Strong communication skills for technical documentation and stakeholder communication. Ability to identify and advocate for architectural improvements and shape technical direction. Demonstrated ability to work independently and take ownership of complex technical challenges. Strong understanding of data structures and algorithms for high-performance, real-time systems.

Develop and optimize high-performance Rust software for real-time data processing on custom, resource-constrained Linux systems. Design and implement type-safe hardware abstractions, managing complex build dependencies and FFI boundaries with memory safety. Build and maintain code generation pipelines for protocol specifications and translation tables into strongly-typed Rust structures. Implement robust and efficient parsers for complex wire protocols, working at the bit level for accurate data models. Optimize software for specific hardware capabilities using deep Linux systems knowledge, profiling, and metrics. Design and implement concurrent data pipelines with message-passing architectures and lock-free data structures. Investigate and debug complex issues across hardware, protocol specifications, FFI, and concurrent timing. Write comprehensive unit, functional, and integration tests for protocol parsing, data processing, and hardware integration. Document designs, data flows, architectural decisions, and safety-critical code patterns. Integrate with existing C-based APIs and libraries using Rust's FFI, including CMake, autotools, and bindgen. Evolve and maintain core processing software for long-term stability, performance, and adaptability. Collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams, including hardware and API/UI engineers, forward deployed engineers embedded with customers, security researchers, data engineering and analytics, and product and program managers.
