Senior Robotics Software Engineer, Embedded Product Security
Anduril Industries, Irvine, California +1
The role
Sentry Towers are deployed to secure perimeters, some in contexts where the tower itself is a sensitive asset and physical access by an adversary is a realistic threat. That makes product security a hardware-and-software problem, not a policy exercise: if someone can pull a drive, attach a serial cable, plug in USB, or interrupt the bootloader, the design has to hold. We’re hiring a Senior Software Engineer to own product security for the tower platform.
You’ll own the trusted boot chain top to bottom, on NVIDIA Jetson compute across several generations. That means signed firmware and bootloaders, UEFI Secure Boot, signed kernel images, encrypted root filesystems, and the key management that makes it real: hardware-security-module-backed signing keys, separate development and production trust roots, and the release pipeline that signs what we ship.
Alongside the boot chain, you’ll own runtime hardening posture: what’s exposed on the network, what privileges the operator account holds, which physical interfaces are live in the field versus on a lab bench, and how a fielded fleet gets security patches on hardware whose vendor support is ending. You’ll work closely with our internal product security organization, translating requirements into implementations that ship, and reviewing our design decisions early, while they are still cheap to change.
