Hardware Reverse Engingeer

• Reverse engineer and analyze complex embedded systems designs to identify functional behaviors and facilitate deeper vulnerability analysis.
• Identify and exploit key system components, including communication channels and firmware memory.
• Conduct vulnerability research on hardened systems and architectures.
• Draft technical reports related to the function, characteristics, and any potential vulnerabilities of the assessed hardware and firmware.
• Rapidly prototype innovative technologies to analyze and exploit target systems.
• Reconstruct schematics from physical boards and develop hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) environments to test and emulate device behavior
• Utilize modern agentic AI systems (e.g., AI-guided PCB layout reconstruction and analysis, automated component identification, or LLM-driven fault-injection orchestration) to accelerate hardware red-teaming and reverse engineering workflows.
• Conduct protocol and signals analysis utilizing oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and logic analyzers.
• Contribute to a diverse range of research and development projects focused on embedded system security.
• Isolate areas of interest in complex systems with precision and efficiency.

What you will have (Basic Qualifications):

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical discipline. Equivalent practical experience in security research, reverse engineering, vulnerability research, or exploit development may substitute for a degree.
• Extensive hands on experience with the following:
• Experience developing on embedded systems such as high speed data devices, or system-on-modules.
• Experience analyzing and reverse engineering binaries (x86/ARM/AVR)
• Debugging embedded systems using tools such as JTAG, UART, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers.
• Familiarity with modern agentic AI systems and automated workflows applied to hardware red-teaming, component triage, or physical security assessments.
• Developing and integrating bootloaders for embedded systems.
• Creating wiring diagrams and schematics.
• Programming in C, C++, and Python.
• Development targeting AMD/Xilinx, Altera, or Microsemi FPGA devices.

Nice to have (Preferred):

• Advanced degree (Master’s or Ph.D.) in Computer Science, Computer/Electrical Engineering, or a related scientific field.
• Exposure to emerging AI-assisted hardware security tools, including agentic vision systems for PCB/IC inspection, automated datasheet analysis, or AI-orchestrated hardware test rigs.
• Experience as part of small R&D teams composed of researchers, engineers, and scientists.
• Custom PCB development experience with tools such as Altium.
• Knowledge of RF protocols and systems.
• Experience with Layer 1 and Layer 2 wired and wireless protocols, such as USB, SPI/I2C/1-Wire, Ethernet, PCI-Express, 802.11, and Bluetooth/ZigBee.
• Hacking experience on IoT products.
• Demonstrated experience managing and leading technical employees and engineering teams.

• Active U.S. security clearance at the Top Secret level, with the ability to obtain and maintain TS/SCI clearance.
