Comprehensive Benefits Plan

Zusammenfassung

Dragos, Inc. is seeking a Staff SDE for the Sensor Platform to lead large-scale platform initiatives from design to production. You will optimize high-throughput data capture and ensure low latency in OT/ICS environments, working with cross-functional teams.

You will mentor engineers, set engineering standards, and translate business goals into durable technical plans, with emphasis on reliability, data fidelity, and observability in a remote-first, globally distributed team.

Qualifikationen

• 8+ years of experience designing, developing, and debugging distributed systems software.
• Deep Rust expertise across asynchronous and concurrent programming, ownership discipline, and performance-sensitive systems design.
• Demonstrated experience architecting or leading a significant systems initiative end-to-end, from design documentation through production deployment.
• Strong grasp of concurrent system design: pipeline topologies, graceful shutdown sequencing, backpressure management, and active queue management.
• Experience with high-performance packet capture and Linux systems programming for lowlatency workloads.
• Proven ability to lead root cause analysis on complex, multi-component failures and drive durable fixes that hold under production load.
• Experience with message queuing or broker systems under production load.
• Awareness of how sensor reliability and data fidelity directly affect detection quality in IC…?
• Demonstrated experience applying cybersecurity best practices, including secure coding, data protection, and awareness of common threats and vulnerabilities

Aufgaben

• Lead large-scale Sensor Platform initiatives — high-throughput ingestion improvements, pipeline scalability, continuous capture capability, and queue management reliability.
• Own root cause analysis and postmortems for complex production and canary issues involving the capture pipeline, broker, shutdown behavior, and message broker integration.
• Establish and champion standards for documentation, test harnesses, observability, and performance benchmarks across the sensor codebase.
• Translate business goals (latency targets, new capture interface support, reliability SLOs) into concrete technical plans and delivery milestones.
• Identify and close gaps in observability, reliability, and developer experience — building the tooling that helps the team diagnose production issues faster and ship with more confidence.
• Elevate the team through mentorship, design reviews, and code review across all experience levels
