Embedded Security Engineer

As part of the Embedded Software team building the foundational software stack for the Cerebras Wafer-Scale Engine (WSE), this role sits at the heart of one of the most advanced computing systems in the world. The WSE powers breakthrough AI compute, and the embedded software you’ll help secure touches everything from low-level microcontrollers and wafer-scale monitoring logic to system administration services and CPU-level Linux/BSP components. As we scale our systems to new levels of performance and deployment, strengthening our security posture is a critical part of ensuring reliability, safety, and trust in Cerebras technology. In this role, you will define, design, and own the embedded security domain end-to-end. You will architect mechanisms such as secure boot and Root-of-Trust, drive secure firmware development practices, and collaborate across security, operations, and manufacturing to ensure seamless deployment. This is a highly impactful senior position for an engineer who wants to combine deep systems expertise with strategic security ownership—your work will directly shape the security of next generation wafer scale systems.
