Senior Security Engineer, Hardware Detection
About the Role
You will analyze logs and security events from cloud services (especially AWS) to detect and respond to intrusion activity against cloud-deployed APIs and identity services. You will design and implement tamper detection and security measures for Linux-based hardware devices, review embedded firmware and hardware schematics, and integrate cryptographic and PKI protections. You will develop detection rules, automated response playbooks, and tooling to scale defense across distributed devices. You will participate in an on-call rotation, perform incident handling, and work cross-functionally with engineering teams to reach consensus security and privacy solutions.
