Are you excited by the prospect of working with innovative security products? Do you enjoy creating innovative and strategic solutions to solve complex problems? Join Our Team We build the enforcement agent behind Akamai Guardicore Segmentation, running on millions of workloads across Linux, Windows, and other platforms. It monitors network connections and enforces security policies directly from the kernel in diverse customer environments. Partner with the best Join our kernel team, in charge of the network segmentation: building real-time kernel-level enforcement and telemetry for next-generation security products, as well as a new AI Detection and Response (AI-DR) initiative. You’ll develop production-scale software across Linux, Windows, and other platforms, solving complex security challenges. As part of the small senior leaders of the team, you’ll have a direct impact on the product and its technical direction. As a Principal Kernel Engineer , you will be responsible for: Writing and debugging kernel-level C code across our Linux kernel module, Windows kernel driver, and eBPF programs. Owning end-to-end debugging of complex production issues, including kernel crashes and low-level system failures, while driving root-cause analysis and post-mortems for production environments. Acting as the technical lead for a small team by reviewing critical kernel/eBPF code mentoring engineers, unblocking complex issues, and guiding key technical decisions. What You'll Bring To be successful in this role you will: Have 5+ years of production C, most of it at the kernel or driver level. Have proven production experience with Linux kernel, Windows drivers, or eBPF. Experience across multiple areas is highly
