Embedded Security Engineer / Vulnerability Researcher

About the role

We are looking for a curious and technically strong Embedded Security Engineer / Vulnerability Researcher to join our software vulnerability analysis team. You will break, analyze, and harden embedded systems used in next‑generation products, working on real firmware, hardware behavior, and attack surfaces.

Key responsibilities

• Analyze embedded software and systems for security vulnerabilities during product development.
• Explore and validate potential attack paths across firmware, boot flows, and system interfaces.
• Perform hands‑on security testing using static and dynamic analysis techniques.
• Support product security assessments and certification‑related activities.
• Investigate security incidents and vulnerability reports in collaboration with PSIRT and development teams.
• Research and experiment with new or emerging attack techniques against secure embedded systems.
• Advise development teams on concrete, practical security improvements.
• Contribute to innovation by challenging assumptions and identifying systemic weaknesses.

Required profile

• Technical background with a degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
• Strong foundation in embedded systems or low‑level software engineering.
• Hands‑on mindset; enjoy experimenting, probing, and validating ideas on real systems.
• Ability to explain technical findings clearly to both experts and non‑experts.

Required skills

• C programming.
• Assembly language (ARM or RISC‑V).
• Understanding of bare‑metal software, boot processes, memory layouts, and system behavior.
• Familiarity with microcontroller or SoC architectures (ARM, RISC‑V, or similar).
• Experience or strong interest in security testing, reverse engineering, and vulnerability research.
• Static and dynamic analysis techniques.

What we offer

• Work on real embedded devices, not abstract security problems.
• Influence the security of products used at scale.
• Collaborate with experts across hardware, firmware, and security research.
• Freedom to explore, experiment, and challenge designs.
• Inclusive environment valuing diverse technical backgrounds.
