DUST Identity is looking for a Principal Software Engineer to join our team in Framingham, MA.

DUST Identity is a physical object security solution that uses nano-diamonds to securely tag physical objects so they are uniquely identifiable.

Think of a bar code, but invisible and unfalsifiable. With DUST, customers can ensure that every physical object- whether an airplane part, microprocessor, or priceless artifact- is genuine.

DUST aims to become the industry standard for physical object identification and security.

Start Date: Immediately

Your Impact

As a Principal Software Engineer, you will own the scalability, speed, and security of the DUST Platform. You will work closely with hardware and computer vision experts to understand the computational and data requirements of the system; apply your system design expertise to plan and construct solutions that meet and exceed customer needs; and promote best practices in both code and communication within the software team.

You should be comfortable with a high degree of ambiguity and relish the idea of solving problems that haven’t been solved before.

Alongside the day-to-day work, you will be a key part of growing the engineering and company culture from an early stage.

What You’ll Do

  • Work cross-functionally with product, software, hardware, and computer vision to understand the system constraints and requirements
  • Own the architecture, and lead the implementation, of critical components of DUST’s software
  • Ensure the availability and reliability of all of our systems at scale
  • Spur innovation, performance, security, and scalability

What You Bring

  • Experience leading the architecture and support of enterprise-scale systems
  • Experience developing, deploying, and managing production multi-cloud solutions, preferably using containerization and orchestration technologies
  • Empathy for the user, and a desire to understand their problems and goals
  • Excitement about creatively and collaboratively solving new problems
  • Suggestions of good lunch places for New Food Fridays

Our Stack

  • Python + Flask
  • React.js + Redux
  • PostgreSQL
  • Docker
  • Kubernetes
  • AWS

At DUST we know that transformational products are created through diversity of people, perspectives, and backgrounds. We foster a culture of inclusivity and respect. We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer.

Note: Due to the nature of the projects involving the US government, only permanent residents or citizens of the US are eligible to apply.

An Insider's view of DUST Identity

What's the biggest problem your team is solving?

From parts in fighter jets to tomatoes in the grocery store, how do we know that products are genuine and produced according to the seller's promises? Identity is the key to trust. We create trust by providing an unclonable fingerprint for physical things that securely binds objects of any size to their digital records.

Peter

VP of Operations

What makes someone successful on your team?

You will thrive on our team if you are curious about the world, see problems as unsolved rather than unsolvable, and love to learn about a wide range of topics. You can handle ambiguity and take initiative. You are curious about the why AND the how. You enjoy being part of a collaborative team and can provide feedback just as well as receive it.

Director of Software
