• Develop, review, and apply security fixes, and verify them on real hardware
• Analyze, reproduce, and drive resolution of security issues reported by internal teams, customers, and researchers
• Support customer security requirements and respond to customer security inquiries and findings
• Establish and maintain secure builds and AI harnesses
• Provision and manage keys, certificates, and device identities for secure boot, attestation, and platform bring-up
• Develop tooling and automation that make security testing and remediation more efficient and repeatable
• Partner with architecture, firmware, and software teams to get fixes designed, implemented, and verified
• Apply AI-assisted engineering tooling to accelerate assessment, remediation, and documentation
