Today nearly every device runs identical software, so a single exploit can cascade across an entire fleet of satellites, drones, vehicles, and defense systems, and AI has made finding that one exploit cheaper than ever.
Variant breaks that pattern, so compromising one device gives an attacker nothing against the rest and no single failure can bring down the fleet.
AI made exploits cheap, and we make them useless, already protecting systems across aerospace, defense, and active conflict zones.
Role Summary As a Compiler Engineer, you'll build and own the compiler technology at the core of Variant's product, turning cutting-edge diversification into something that ships.
You'll work across two areas, the compiler itself and the systems and tooling that run it at fleet scale, with real ownership rather than narrow ticket work.
You'll have a direct line to the founding team, immediate impact on what customers run, and room to grow from a strong early-career engineer into the owner of a core domain.
Variant Security is securing the world's critical fleets for the AI era.

Tasks Develop and extend compiler passes that harden builds against exploitation Reverse engineer and analyze the generated binaries to validate transformations Measure security and performance impact across x86, AArch64, and RISC-V targets Build tooling in modern C++ and Python, and integrate the compiler into CMake a.
