About this role

Lead the design and development of a cross-platform endpoint security agent built in Rust, responsible for threat detection and prevention across Windows, Linux, and macOS. You'll architect a resilient, lightweight agent with advanced OS introspection, autonomous threat prevention, and offline telemetry capabilities in a small team of industry veterans.

What you'll do

  • Architect and build the core endpoint security agent from the ground up with deep OS-level visibility
  • Implement user-mode API interception, kernel-level behavioral analysis, and anti-tampering mechanisms
  • Design cross-platform telemetry collection using Windows ETW, Linux eBPF, and macOS ESF
  • Develop low-overhead threat detection heuristics and autonomous prevention capabilities
  • Engineer resilient distributed systems with offline disk spooling and secure mTLS synchronization
  • Lead technical decisions on self-healing architectures and fail-safe rollback mechanisms

What they're looking for

  • Rust programming (high-performance, low-level)
  • Windows OS internals (ETW, IPC, Named Pipes, Services, kernel drivers)
  • Cross-platform telemetry (Linux eBPF, macOS ESF)
  • Dynamic binary instrumentation and process injection
  • Distributed systems design and optimization
  • Endpoint security concepts and threat detection
  • Systems-level programming and concurrent applications
  • Anti-tampering and process protection mechanisms

Benefits

  • Competitive salary: $150,000–$250,000 per year
  • Comprehensive health and well-being benefits package
  • Opportunity to architect next-generation security products
  • Career growth with early-stage company
  • Work with industry veteran team leaders
