WebKit Software Engineer

At Bromium we're building technology that transforms the trustworthiness of computer systems in the Internet age, 
making them dependable, secure and manageable by design. What we build covers a wide range of aspects of Computer 
Science and Software Engineering, with a strong focus on minimalism, efficiency, simplicity and security.

Our products take advantage of modern virtualisation techniques to allow us to trap and contain untrusted 
webpages, applications and data, making it easier for users to use the web without compromising on system 
security. In our vision, users should be able to browser the Internet without having to worry about system integrity. 

A key part of this is not just protecting the user from malicious data once it's downloaded, but to be
integral to the browsing experience. We want to bring Bromium's advanced containment features into the
browser itself, allowing users to navigate the web without concern, knowing that Bromium is protecting them, 
their computer, and their data from malicious sites.

To get this level of integration we need to integrate closely with popular browsers, and thus high on our
list is making sure we work well with WebKit based browsers such as Safari and Chrome. We're looking for
someone who knows their way around the insides of WebKit to help us deliver on our promise of 
trusted web browsing to users, primarily on OS X, but also and other platforms. If you are smart, motivated and love 
technical challenges, we would like to invite you to explore being part of our the Bromium team.

Bromium has offices in Cambridge, UK and Cupertino, California, and have both permanent and intern positions available.

A successful candidate will have the following essential skills:

* Strong technical and problem-solving skills including ability to develop and debug software in C, and C++, and Javascript.
* Strong knowledge of the WebKit source code, with a commit history a definite advantage.
* Existing experience of building browser extensions and plugins.
* Proven ability to be a productive and flexible team member in a fast-paced environment.

Qualifications

.   BS in CS or equivalent required. MS preferred. Ph.D. even better.
