Job description
We're building the platform that orchestrates how software moves across our entire server fleet. You'll work in Go on the control-plane services driving deployments, and shape the Linux image and boot path that safely brings servers from power-on to running production software.
If you want to: •
Design and build Go services for fleet-wide deployment, configuration, and lifecycle management;
•
Work on the Linux image and boot path used by servers in the fleet;
•
Contribute to the cryptographic protocols and machine-attestation work behind it;
•
Help keep the system's security properties verifiable as it evolves.
And you can check off: •
Strong Go and a track record of shipping production backend services;
•
Solid Linux internals: kernel boot, initramfs, networking stack;
•
Comfortable with modern cryptographic primitives and authn building blocks (mTLS, OIDC, signature schemes);
•
Security-first mindset: you think in threat models, key rotation, and blast radius.
Bonus points if you: •
Have worked with hardware roots of trust or measured boot;
•
Have shipped supply-chain primitives (reproducible builds, SBOMs, artifact attestation);
•
Have used formal-methods tools to reason about protocols or systems.
