# Cybersecurity & IT Engineer

Company Overview Compound Eye teaches machines to understand their surroundings in 3D and in real time using only passive sensors like cameras. Our VIDAS™ technology enables vehicles, drones, and other robots to determine their position and navigate their environment without LiDAR, radar, or GPS. Compound Eye has customers in both defense and commercial robotics and is backed by Khosla Ventures, RTX Ventures, and other leading investors. We operate as a CMMC 2.0 Level 2 environment supporting a team of 20 computer vision and machine learning engineers. The Role We're hiring a Cybersecurity & IT Engineer to report directly to the VP of Engineering. You will own the identity, endpoint, network, and security practice that supports our engineering team. You'll inherit a working stack with room to improve it. This is a hands-on generalist role, not a ticket-queue role and not a compliance-paperwork role. You'll sit in engineering standups, find where access, identity, or network friction is slowing the team down, and have the autonomy to fix it. On a given week, you might harden conditional access policies in Entra, audit third-party OAuth grants in Google Workspace, get a remote engine
