Security Engineer

Intelic builds Nexus: a command and control platform for unmanned systems operating in contested environments.

Our software coordinates autonomous systems across unstable networks degraded GPS conditions and off-grid deployments. We work directly with defense organizations and operators to build software that keeps functioning when conditions are at their worst.

We are looking for a Security Engineer to join our Product Adoption team the team responsible for making Nexus deployable reliable and operationally ready in the hands of real users.

What you will do

You will be embedded in the Product Adoption team working alongside Software and DevOps Engineers to harden Nexus from the inside out. This team owns the final step between generic software and field-ready product: deployment pipelines service orchestration Windows installers monitoring and crash recovery. Security is woven into that work not bolted on after. This includes:

Helping engineering teams build secure-by-default systems

Hardening APIs and authentication for externally exposed surfaces

Obfuscating proprietary code to prevent reverse engineering

Securing the software update server the one online touchpoint in an otherwise offline system

Building a secure telemetry pipeline so deployed units can send back logs without leaking sensitive operational information

Hardening infrastructure and containerized environments

Securing CI/CD and software supply chains

Improving operational security visibility and response

You will work on systems that

Operate off-grid

Communicate over unstable links

Run in contested environments

Cannot rely on perfect infrastructure or connectivity
