Project description

Who Are We
DXC Luxoft is a global IT services and consulting company, part of DXC Technology, delivering cutting-edge digital and software solutions worldwide. We partner with leading financial institutions and global enterprises, helping them transform and scale through modern technology.
Join a global community of engineers and be part of building impactful, modern technology solutions!

Project Description
AMD is developing a hardware-assisted security platform that uses silicon-level Performance Monitoring Counters (PMCs) and on-chip machine learning to detect advanced endpoint threats, including ransomware, fileless malware, and cryptojacking.
The platform collects CPU behavioral telemetry, processes it through an ML inference engine, and exposes threat signals to security-software partners through a standardized API.
The project spans CPU telemetry collection, ML integration, real-time processing, hardware validation, and partner integration.

We are looking for a Senior Windows Systems Engineer (Kernel & Telemetry) to develop and optimize the Windows runtime components responsible for transferring CPU telemetry from kernel space to user space and integrating it with the ML inference pipeline.
You will work closely with engineers specializing in hardware, machine learning, validation, and partner integration.
This is a Windows-focused role requiring regular on-site collaboration in Gdańsk. Additional technical details will be shared during the recruitment process in accordance with applicable confidentiality requirements.
