  • 12+ years of software engineering experience, with a significant portion dedicated to designing and operating complex, resource-constrained client-side or endpoint software in a large-scale deployment
  • Advanced AI-Augmented Development: As a leader in engineering efficiency, you must be an expert in leveraging AI-powered development tools—including Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and GitHub Copilot—to radically accelerate the SDLC and automate complex refactoring and testing workflows
  • Cross-Platform Systems Mastery: Proven track record of architecting and shipping production-quality software for multiple operating systems (Windows, macOS, Linux) with a deep understanding of OS internals, networking stacks (L3-L7), and system performance tuning. Expertise in C/C++, Rust, or Go (Golang) for high-performance client development is required
  • Endpoint Security & Resilience: Deep authoritative knowledge of endpoint security mechanisms (e.g., integrity checks, sandboxing, driver development) and the ability to design agents that are resilient to tampering while maintaining a minimal security posture
  • Data Acquisition Pipeline Innovation: Experience building robust, secure, and resource-efficient data collection and buffering mechanisms within an agent, utilizing technologies for local data persistence and secure transfer
  • Security & Networking Visionary: Deep understanding of Zero Trust architecture principles applied at the endpoint, L3-L7 networking interception, and advanced encryption standards to ensure the ADEM Agent remains the most secure platform in the industry
  • Open Source & Community: A history of contributing to open-source projects (e.g., related to system monitoring, networking drivers) or speaking at industry conferences is highly desirable
  • Education: BS/MS/PhD in Computer Science or a related technical field, or equivalent high-level professional experience

  • Client-Side Architecture & Roadmap: Define the long-term architectural vision for the ADEM Agent across Linux, Windows, macOS, and mobile platforms, ensuring robust performance, minimal resource consumption
  • OS/Kernel-Level Governance: Lead the "Design Review Board" for all Agent-side features, ensuring all components adhere to Secure AI by Design, operate with high-availability patterns in diverse OS environments, and maintain a low CPU/memory footprint
  • Data Acquisition & Resilience: Drive the evolution of the Agent's telemetry collection and processing pipeline, optimizing for low-latency, encrypted data transfer and ensuring resilience in low-bandwidth or disconnected environments
  • Cross-Functional Leadership: Partner with Product Management, Core Infrastructure, and Security teams to translate ambiguous business requirements into robust, high-performance technical specifications for the client software
  • Engineering Excellence & Mentorship: Act as a force multiplier by mentoring Staff and Senior engineers, fostering a culture of rigorous platform-specific testing, high code quality, and proactive technical debt management within the Agent codebase
  • Crisis Leadership: Serve as the ultimate technical escalation point for complex, systemic production issues related to endpoint stability or performance, leading post-mortems that drive permanent architectural improvements in the Agent
