Why Us?
We are seeking a highly skilled Linux Developer with strong reverse engineering capabilities to support advanced research, systems development, and threat analysis. This role requires deep knowledge of the Linux operating system internals, low-level programming, and the ability to analyze and deconstruct binaries for vulnerabilities, malware, or undocumented system behavior.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design, develop, and maintain low-level kernel-mode components, drivers, and subsystems for Linux platforms.
- Perform reverse engineering of Linux binaries (both legitimate and malicious) to understand system behavior, exploits, or undocumented APIs.
- Conduct vulnerability research and proof-of-concept exploit development.
- Analyze crash dumps, root cause bugs, and provide kernel-level debugging and troubleshooting support.
- Collaborate with cybersecurity researchers, analysts, and software engineers to support security-focused development efforts.
- Document findings, architecture, and procedures clearly for internal teams or external clients.
Qualifications:
- Active TS/SCI clearance.
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
- Previous experience in Linux kernel development.
- Proficient in C/C++ for systems-level programming.
- Expertise with reverse engineering tools such as IDA Pro, Ghidra, x64dbg, and Hex-Rays.
- In-depth understanding of Linux internals (e.g., kernel-mode drivers, memory management, system calls, PE file format).
- Experience with kernel-mode debugging and root cause analysis.
- Familiarity with secure coding practices and low-level exploit mitigation techniques (e.g., PatchGuard, CFG, DEP/ASLR).
- Strong understanding of malware behavior and techniques (if cybersecurity-focused).
What We Offer:
- Competitive salary and benefits package.
- Opportunities for professional growth and development.
- A collaborative and innovative work culture.
Why Us?
- Work on mission-driven technology at the cutting edge of cybersecurity and national defense.
- Join a passionate, elite team of innovators and problem-solvers.
- Competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits.
- Opportunities for career growth and leadership development.
- Be part of a culture that values innovation, collaboration, and continuous learning.
