Real-Time Windows Kernel Developer - Low-Latency ML Security

Luxoft; Gdańsk; On-site; PLN 210,000 - 320,000; Full time

Job summary

Luxoft in Gdańsk, Poland, seeks a Real-Time Developer to lead Windows kernel‑mode data pipelines and ML runtime integration for a hardware‑assisted security platform. You will design low‑latency, high‑throughput systems handling CPU telemetry and secure IPC between kernel and user space, with production‑grade reliability and on‑site collaboration.

The role requires extensive C/C++ (and Rust) experience, deep kernel programming knowledge, and hands‑on work with ML inference runtimes and security

Qualifications

• Experience developing Windows kernel-mode drivers or related low-level Windows components.
• 4+ years in systems programming using C or C++; Rust relevant with strong low-level experience.
• Hands-on Windows kernel programming and kernel-to-user-space communication.
• Experience building real-time, high-throughput, or low-latency software.
• Knowledge of shared memory, ring buffers, lock-free queues, asynchronous I/O, or multi-threaded pipelines.
• Strong understanding of concurrency, memory management, and performance-sensitive design.
• Strong debugging and profiling across kernel-mode and user-space Windows components.
• Experience creating production-ready software with robust error handling and tests.
• Ability to analyze and reduce latency, CPU overhead, memory contention.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement high-throughput, low-latency data pipelines transferring CPU telemetry to ML runtime.
• Develop reliable kernel-mode to user-space communication mechanisms.
• Maintain real-time inference integration layer, including model loading and input preparation.
• Integrate ML runtimes such as ONNX Runtime, OpenVINO, or equivalents.
• Design stable SDK/API layer to deliver threat signals to security-software partners.
• Support API lifecycle, versioning, error handling, and documentation.
• Implement per-process and per-thread attribution of telemetry and results.
• Profile and optimize pipeline throughput, latency, memory usage, synchronization, and CPU overhead.
• Develop unit, integration, regression, load, and stress tests for the runtime pipeline.
• Collaborate with Lab and ML Engineers to replay telemetry and validate models.
• Diagnose issues across kernel-mode, user-space, runtimes, and interfaces.
• Document runtime architecture, communication protocols, API specifications, performance characteristics, integration procedures.
