Security Engineer

Who you are

You have a strong background in cybersecurity engineering, with hands-on experience in securing complex systems. Your expertise includes conducting formal Threat Assessment and Risk Analysis (TARA) to define security requirements for vehicle Electronic Control Units (ECUs) and autonomous stacks. You are familiar with developing data integrity standards for CAN and Automotive Ethernet, effectively blocking injection and spoofing attacks. Your experience extends to threat modeling for new infrastructure, identifying vulnerabilities in fleet management and diagnostic tools.

You possess a solid understanding of automated security testing requirements, including protocol fuzzing for software build pipelines. You can translate high-level security goals into actionable engineering specifications, collaborating closely with senior architects. Your skills also include designing Hardware Security Module (HSM) integrations to establish a hardware-rooted Chain of Trust, as well as architecting secure boot and Over-The-Air (OTA) update mechanisms using cryptographic signing to prevent unauthorized code execution.

Your programming skills in C/C++ and/or Rust are complemented by your familiarity with securing IoT cloud architectures and managing secure data pipelines between edge devices and backends. You have hands-on experience with Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), digital signatures, and encryption as applied to Secure Boot, OTA, and hardware-based Roots of Trust.

What you'll do

In this role, you will be the main point of contact for product security, working directly with engineering teams to ensure the security of Waabi's innovative self-driving technology. You will conduct formal TARA assessments to define security requirements for vehicle ECUs and autonomous stacks, ensuring that security is integrated into the product development lifecycle from the outset.

You will develop data integrity standards for CAN and Automotive Ethernet, effectively blocking injection and spoofing attacks. Your responsibilities will include performing threat modeling for new infrastructure, identifying vulnerabilities in fleet management and diagnostic tools, and specifying automated security testing requirements, including protocol fuzzing for the software build pipeline.

You will collaborate with senior architects to translate high-level security goals into actionable engineering specifications, ensuring that security considerations are embedded in the design and implementation of systems. Additionally, you will design Hardware Security Module (HSM) integrations to establish a hardware-rooted Chain of Trust, architect secure boot and OTA update mechanisms using cryptographic signing to prevent unauthorized code execution, and develop security automation and design validation tools.
