We are looking for a Senior / Staff Software Engineer with a strong background in systems programming, Linux internals, performance optimization, and workload isolation.

This is not a typical backend, DevOps, SRE, or infrastructure engineering role. We need someone who can work across multiple layers of the system stack, from Linux kernel mechanisms and networking to application-level services and security controls.

The ideal candidate has experience designing, implementing, and optimizing complex systems where security, isolation, and performance are equally important.

Ideal Background

We are looking for engineers who have worked on one or more of:

Linux kernel-adjacent systems
Sandboxing and isolation platforms
Container runtimes
Hypervisors and virtualization
Cloud infrastructure internals
Performance engineering
Operating systems
Networking infrastructure
Security-focused systems programming

Examples include engineers who have contributed to:

gVisor
Kata Containers
Firecracker
containerd
CRI-O
KVM-based platforms
Linux security frameworks
Large-scale distributed infrastructure

Responsibilities

Building and improving secure workload isolation systems
Designing and implementing sandboxing mechanisms for user-generated and AI-generated code execution
Working with Linux security primitives such as: namespaces, cgroups, seccomp, permissions and access controls

Profiling large distributed systems and identifying bottlenecks
Improving networking performance and traffic management
Designing and evolving internal protocols and service communication mechanisms
Contributing to and debugging system-level services and infrastructure components
Evaluating and integrating technologies such as: gVisor, KVM, container runtimes, virtualization technologies

Driving technical projects from architecture and requirements gathering through implementation and production rollout

Requirements

5+ years of industry experience
Experience building and shipping large-scale, reliable, highly distributed systems
Systems-level programming experience, especially in C, Go, Rust
Expertise in L2, L3, and/or L4 networking protocols
Good understanding of Linux networking and security
Experience building on top of Linux kernel networking primitives – netfilter, nftables, eBPF, tc, network namespaces, etc
Experience with large-scale distributed data pipelines, from data structuring to efficient querying to data analysis
Experience of working with public cloud infrastructure providers (AWS/Azure/Google Cloud)
Understanding of Kubernetes concepts
Excellent debugging and optimization skills
Understanding at the protocol level, including the differences between what the specs say, and what actually happens on the Internet
Contributions to open source projects is a plus
Excited by the idea of optimizing complex solutions to general problems
Attention to detail and ability to solve complex customer problems
Own solutions end-to-end and driving the design, development, and deployment process
Able to work across teams and level common, sustainable solutions
