About the role

We're looking for a hardware engineer to own the silicon-level foundations of our technology. You'll connect hardware security features to AI workloads, building verifiable computation pipelines where we can statically derive what a GPU kernel should compute and cryptographically prove that it did. You'll work directly with silicon vendors, design attestation systems for modern accelerators, and build the tamper-proof link between a model's architecture and its execution on hardware.

What you'll do

  • Design verifiable compute pipelines that derive hardware behavior expectations from model definitions and tiling configurations, then prove execution integrity
  • Build low-level software (C, C++, Rust) that interfaces with TEEs, secure enclaves, and cryptographic accelerators to attest to chip location and computation integrity
  • Implement static kernel analysis tools to extract memory access patterns and computational structure from GPU kernels (Triton, CUTLASS, PTX/SASS)
  • Serve as technical liaison with silicon vendors (NVIDIA, AMD, Intel) on security architectures, side-channel implications, and next-generation accelerator roadmaps

What you'll bring

  • BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Engineering, CS, or EE with a focus on computer architecture, compilers, or systems security
  • Deep understanding of GPU architecture: memory hierarchies, tensor core operations, tiling strategies, and how logical tensors map to physical hardware
  • Strong systems programming in C, C++, or Rust with experience interfacing with hardware security primitives
  • Experience with CUDA, Triton, or CUTLASS kernel programming

Bonus

  • Familiarity with MLIR/LLVM or compiled binary analysis
  • Experience with hardware performance counters (Nsight Compute, CUPTI)
  • Knowledge of TEEs (Intel SGX/TDX, AMD SEV)
  • Interest in formal methods or layout algebra

We are open to hiring both early-career and experienced candidates. For the latter, we are open to higher compensation and more senior titles. We will also consider exceptional candidates on a part-time basis.
