## Description

You will join a team breaking new ground in AI-assisted tools for reverse engineering and software development, exercising your skills as a Software Engineer with a solid foundation in Linux, software development, and familiarity with reverse engineering. You'll help evolve how reverse engineers work - combining binary analysis, disassembly, and workflow optimization with emerging AI techniques - and grow your AI/LLM expertise along the way.

 * Design and build tooling enhancements for RE workflows.
 * Experiment with autonomous or semi-autonomous agents to support development.
 * Automate common RE tasks, including analysis and documentation.
 * Apply AI-assisted techniques to binary analysis, annotation, and pattern identification.
 * Work directly with customers and teammates to shape and refine solutions.
 * Measure and document the effectiveness of tooling improvements.
