Senior / Staff Robotics Security Software Engineer

Designs and hardens security controls across Saronic's fleet of autonomous surface vessels, from onboard edge computers to the mesh, satellite and cellular links between vessels and the cloud orchestration layer. The engineer builds secure boot, hardware roots of trust, rollback protection and secure over-the-air updates, implements per-vessel identity, mutual authentication and the certificate and key lifecycle, protects messages against replay and spoofing on contested links, hardens cloud cryptographic services, secrets and containers, secures NixOS configurations and dependencies, and works with autonomy, platform and application security teams on threat models and incidents.

Saronic wants three or more years of security software engineering (eight or more for staff), ideally in robotics or embedded systems, C/C++ or Rust, embedded Linux security, applied cryptography and secure boot or HSM experience. On site in Austin.
