Linux Security Engineering Manager
Iceberg
I'm looking for someone who has grown up engineering in Linux environments, developed genuinely deep expertise in Linux operating systems, and throughout their career has moved into Linux security and platform security engineering.
Importantly, I'm not looking for someone who has moved completely away from the technology into management.
I need an engineering leader who is still deeply technical today, understands Linux at the operating-system level, and can lead a team of strong engineers working on complex security challenges.
The non-negotiables:
- Deep, current Linux engineering experience, ideally developed over many years working directly with Linux systems.
- Strong Linux security engineering expertise, including areas such as kernel security, system hardening, privilege management, isolation and operating-system security controls.
- Proven engineering management experience, including directly managing, mentoring and developing software or platform engineers.
- Strong software engineering foundations, with the ability to contribute meaningfully to architecture, technical design and engineering decisions.
- Experience building or improving security capabilities in complex, highly customised infrastructure environments.
Compensation is exceptionally competitive , with a heavily cash-weighted package comprising base salary, multiple bonus components and guaranteed first-year cash compensation.
The organisation I'm representing has an extremely high technical hiring bar, a sophisticated engineering environment and the resources to solve problems properly.
New York City | Hybrid — 3 days onsite
Candidates must already be based in the United States. Domestic relocation support is available, but international relocation is not supported.
If your career has taken you from Linux engineering into Linux security engineering and then into technical leadership, I'd be very interested in speaking with you.
Please reach out directly for a confidential conversation.
