TL;DR · Senior Embedded RUST Software Engineer

The Senior Embedded RUST Software Engineer (cleared) joins the Cyber group to develop mission-critical, NSA-certified cybersecurity devices. Working within a cross-functional team, the engineer builds software for custom in-house hardware, focusing on high-speed data and advanced encryption products. Daily responsibilities include designing, coding, testing, and debugging production-quality software while maintaining reliable applications throughout long development lifecycles. The role requires proficiency in Rust, specifically its ownership, borrowing, lifetimes, and concurrency models. Candidates must utilize the Rust toolchain, including Cargo and CI/CD integration, and may use C/C++, Python, Linux, and UML. Key tasks involve translating technical requirements into software designs, performing code reviews, and developing automated unit or hardware-in-the-loop test coverage to solve complex cybersecurity and networking problems.

What you'll do

  • Develop production-quality embedded software using Rust for NSA-certified cybersecurity devices.
  • Design and implement systems-level, networking, or performance-sensitive software using Rust's concurrency models.
  • Build and maintain automated unit, integration, and hardware-in-the-loop test coverage.
  • Troubleshoot complex software defects and perform rigorous code reviews.
  • Translate technical requirements and specifications into software designs, code, and test plans.
  • Integrate Rust into established codebases using C/C++ or Python where necessary.
  • Manage the Rust toolchain, including Cargo, dependency management, and CI/CD integration.
  • Provide technical direction and leadership to execute projects with minimal guidance.

What we're looking for

  • U.S. citizenship is required.
  • Secret security clearance is required at time of hire.
  • Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering or a related STEM field plus 8 years of relevant experience.
  • Master's degree plus 6 years of relevant experience.
  • Demonstrated experience developing production-quality software in Rust, including design, coding, testing, and debugging (preferred).
  • Proficiency with Rust ownership, borrowing, lifetimes, error handling, and concurrency models (preferred).
  • Experience designing and implementing systems-level, embedded, backend, networking, or performance-sensitive software using Rust (preferred).
  • Experience with related languages such as C/C++ or Python (preferred).
