Software Engineer (PKI & Security) na Zerorisc

zeroRISCzeroRISC is redefining chip security and supply chain integrity by empowering device owners and operators in crucial sectors like silicon production, IoT, and critical infrastructure with full device ownership, control, and visibility. Led by the founders of the OpenTitan secure silicon project, zeroRISC is driving commercial adoption of high assurance software and services rooted in open silicon. Our products forge an immutable connection between hardware and software, enabling users to trust their devices no matter where they’re built or where they’re deployed.Role OverviewAs a Software Engineer at zeroRISC, you will play a critical role in building services that provide critical guarantees enforced by secure silicon to ensure integrity and security through the entire device lifetime. You will work closely with senior engineers to create services that are both functional and secure, helping us address security vulnerabilities before they become risks or exploits. Our fast-paced startup environment requires adaptability, ability to learn quickly, and thinking critically about the long term implications of design decisions. This role is ideal for a mid-level or senior engineer who is looking for an opportunity to own new product features from design to deployment.

Key Responsibilities:

Design and implement PKI and other platform services to support hardware secure elements throughout their lifecycle

Create high-availability and security-critical services that follow deployment best practices, including robust observability tools, secure update mechanisms, and automated release pipelines

Work with other engineers to identify and address potential security risks

Create and maintain detailed documentation for software systems, including security constraints and considerations

Stay up-to-date with the latest security threats and hardware security best practices

Quickly learn new technologies, tools, and methodologies in a startup environment to enhance both the performance and security of software systems

What We’re Looking For:

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science or a related field

3+ years of experience in a software engineering, security engineering, or related role

Familiarity with Linux as a deployment platform

Familiarity with the Go programming language

A strong understanding of system design for practical security, including PKI and code signing infrastructure

Ability to think critically about potential security risks and vulnerabilities in deployed hardware and software systems

Strong teamwork and communication skills to work effectively with senior engineers, product teams, and other stakeholders

Preferred Qualifications (not required but a plus):

Experience with the setup and maintenance of networks, servers, and/or distributed systems at scale.

Familiarity with at least one lower-level language (e.g. C/C++, Rust) and advanced knowledge of Linux as a development environment.

Experience with public key infrastructure (PKI) systems and certificate management

Basic understanding of applied cryptography

Familiarity with cloud platform configuration

Why Join Us?

Your work will directly contribute to the development of cutting-edge security solutions, protecting critical systems in industrial and IoT environments

As a seed-stage startup, this role offers significant opportunities for learning and career growth

Join a close-knit, innovative team where you can learn, grow, and contribute to building something meaningful in the security space
