Senior Networking Engineer (Rust / Systems-Level / Security)

Job Description About the RoleWe’re seeking a seasoned Senior Networking Engineer to help design and implement advanced network infrastructure components focused on security, performance, and resilience. This role involves deep systems-level programming, protocol design, and secure data transport — all within a high-stakes, security-critical environment. You’ll be joining a small, fast-moving team working on ambitious next-generation networking technologies.What You’ll DoArchitect and implement secure network communication systems across unreliable and constrained environmentsHandle low-level packet manipulation, protocol logic, and efficient transport across custom pathwaysWrite high-performance, memory-safe systems code, primarily in RustCollaborate on strategies for encrypted data tunnels, connection coordination, and identity-based routingWork closely with security engineers to integrate cryptographic protocols and access control modelsProfile and debug complex network behaviors, bottlenecks, and cross-platform edge casesWhat We’re Looking For5+ years of experience building low-level networked systemsDeep understanding of TCP/UDP, transport reliability, and real-time data flowExperience with Rust, or advanced systems-level proficiency in C/C++ with a willingness to work in RustFamiliarity with Linux networking, routing, and socket programmingStrong background in network security, including secure authentication and encryption techniquesComfortable with asynchronous systems, resource-constrained environments, and protocol debuggingSelf-directed, proactive, and comfortable working in a startup-style environmentBonus Points ForPrior experience building custom network tunnels, proxy systems, or transport-layer logicKnowledge of NAT traversal strategies, coordination protocols, or peer-to-peer networkingExperience working with zero-trust or identity-based access modelsFamiliarity with tools like pcap, tcpdump, tshark, and traffic shaping techniquesE04JI80034mh407kn8i
