Key responsibilities include: - Owning fielded system success and driving resolution when issues arise - Building and maintaining production services on edge-compute devices in austere environments - Supporting field operators and non-technical users to diagnose and resolve deployed hardware issues - Serving as a subject matter expert in integrations with other products and teams - Developing broad fluency across hardware, firmware, networking, and software stacks - Collaborating across firmware, hardware, and platform engineering teams Required qualifications: 5+ years of software development with meaningful production responsibility; strong Python and C++ skills; 5+ years working in Linux-based environments including bare-metal hardware; demonstrated ability to diagnose issues across system boundaries; strong written and verbal communication; willingness to travel ~15% for field testing and customer integrations; eligibility to obtain and maintain a U.S. Secret clearance. Preferred: gRPC or similar RPC framework experience; Linux systems service management and observability; React/JSX experience; Nix/NixOS familiarity; experience supporting fielded or deployed systems.
