Home to Anchorage Digital Bank N. A. , the only federally chartered crypto bank in the U.

The Hardware Security Module engineers are responsible for developing the secure software at the core of the Anchorage Digital Platform. We’re a group of engineers that are embedded in

Technical Skills:

• You have comprehensive experience with secure low level C/C++ programming, kernel development/hardening, and/or embedded systems.
• You have a deep understanding of common crypto algorithms (RSA, ECDSA, BLS, etc. ), code signing, network security, authentication/authorization, and the threat landscape for

  -

Although not a requirement, bonus points if:
