Virtualization and Sandboxing Engineer

You build the isolation around models, plugins and remote jobs, so a person can add a useful tool without giving that tool access to their life. The distinction that matters here is between restricting a process and defending against a host that is already compromised, and this role is about the second.

Apply for this roleAll roles

Open for applications. Starts at: Pilot expansion.

We are taking applications for this role now and building the pipeline for it. The stage above is when the work itself is expected to begin, which is something you deserve to know before you apply rather than after. It is context, not a gate.

Where
