- PKI and certificate management — EJBCA/KeyFactor, Venafi, or comparable; manufacturing device identity injection, MTKI/sub-CA hierarchies, certificate expiry management.
- Code signing pipeline experience — firmware or binary signing (COSE/CBOR, Authenticode, or comparable); SBOM generation and signing; attestation workflows.
- Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) — practical experience with ML-DSA, LMS/LMOD, or hybrid crypto schemes; familiarity with CNSA 2.0+ and NIST PQC standards.
- Compliance framework experience — NIST FIPS 140-3, NSA CNSA 2.0+, OCP 2.5/3.0+, ISO 27001, SOX ITGC.
- Microsoft security stack — Defender XDR, Microsoft Sentinel (+ Data Lake), Security Copilot, Logic Apps; KQL; Azure.
- Splunk — SPL, log forwarding, content/detection management, and index administration.
- Agentic tooling — Model Context Protocol (MCP), Security Copilot plugins, LangChain, or comparable security-native agent orchestration and connector frameworks.
- Non-human identity (NHI) & workload identity — Entra Workload Identities, Okta, or comparable; service principal and managed-identity lifecycle management.
- Prior FDE, solutions-engineering, detection-engineering, or product security engineering role in an enterprise manufacturing or hardware product environment.
Full description
Agentic Detection & Response Engineering
- Define and own detection coverage strategy — establish detection standards, naming conventions, and quality criteria for the SOC and Product Security program.
- Map the threat landscape to MITRE ATT&CK TTP coverage; prioritize detection development against real adversary behaviors and threat intelligence; maintain ATT&CK coverage heatmaps and track MTTD and false positive rates as operational KPIs.
- Build and ship agentic detection and response — own the full lifecycle from threat use case through detections-as-code, automated triage, and production agentic response workflows.
- Design and govern AI agent identity and delegation — architect the end-to-end lifecycle for non-human identities operating in the security environment, including scoped delegation, audit logging, and kill-switch controls.
- Apply MITRE ATLAS adversarial ML techniques to threat-model all agent deployments; validate guardrails against OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications and OWASP Top 10 for Agentic AI.
Product Security & Cryptographic Infrastructure
- Support and enhance Solidigm's Product Security & Code Signing platform — the cryptographic foundation for firmware signing, device identity (EJBCA/PKI), attestation (COSE/CBOR, LMS, PQC/ML-DSA), and unlock (CRAM/ADU) across all product lines.
- Build and maintain automation for signing pipelines, HSM health monitoring, certificate lifecycle management, and access provisioning workflows integrated into CI/CD.
- Contribute to PQC adoption — ML-DSA, LMS/LMOD, CNSA 2.0+, and OCP 3.0+ readiness — by developing and shipping the automation and tooling that operationalizes these standards.
- Own and evolve the security data platform supporting cryptographic governance: signing telemetry, KPI dashboards, audit logging, and anomaly detection for signing infrastructure.
- Architect and govern AI agent integrations within the code signing and cryptographic operations environment — scoped identity, delegation controls, and human-oversight mechanisms for any automation touching signing or key operations.
Application & Product Security Integration
- Embed across firmware engineering, CI/CD, and manufacturing teams — delivering security controls, pipeline integrations, and attestation automation directly in their environments.
- Integrate security requirements (SAST, SBOM generation and validation, attestation signing, supply-chain controls) across firmware build and release pipelines.
- Validate security controls through adversary emulation and purple team exercises; close coverage gaps identified through testing and operational feedback.
