Secure Infrastructure Engineer

HP•Corvallis, OR

About The Position

As part of the team that implements secure authentication capabilities for HP print supplies, the Secure Infrastructure Engineer combines infrastructure deployment and embedded systems development to support a business-critical part of HP across R&D and manufacturing environments. The role deploys and maintains Windows and Linux servers and virtual machines in on-premises and cloud environments; implements DevOps infrastructure projects; and maintains and improves build and continuous integration systems. It also develops solutions for operational administration, backup, disaster recovery, security and performance monitoring, and complex automation and analysis. The engineer monitors system performance, collaborates with development teams to optimize and scale infrastructure, conducts root cause analysis, manages incidents, and evaluates systems against industry standards. The position also develops embedded systems that communicate with secure microcontrollers over I2C, troubleshoots communication issues using tools such as logic analyzers, partners with application developers to integrate new hardware into software solutions, and applies embedded circuit design knowledge and security principles throughout the engineering lifecycle. The role may impact multiple teams and may act as a team or project leader. It responds to moderately complex issues within established guidelines.
