    • Contribute to Ubuntu mainline and upstream projects to land solutions and benefit the community

    • Excellent software engineering fundamentals, including prior experience with C development, and the ability to demonstrate such
    • Hands-on experience with Linux system administration and shell scripting
    • Demonstrated knowledge of security and cryptography fundamentals + direct experience writing secure code and implementing best practices
    • Significant development experience working with open source libraries
    • Excellent verbal and written communications to enable efficient collaboration with internal and external partners in a remote-first environment
    Additional skills that you might also bring
    • Prior experience working on FIPS/Common Criteria certified products and in-depth knowledge of the underlying standards
    • Prior experience working directly with DISA-STIG or CIS benchmarks, including related audit + remediation tooling (e.g. Compliance as Code)

    • Prior experience with Python, OVAL (Open Vulnerability Assessment Language), and Ansible
    • History of contributions to open source projects
