Hardware security is becoming a first-class hiring requirement rather than a specialism bolted on at the end. Chip identity, firmware integrity and post-quantum readiness are all being asked for now, and they sit awkwardly between the security world and the silicon world.
The practical difficulty is that most people with real cryptographic depth have never worked at the hardware level, and most hardware engineers treat security as somebody else's job. The small number who bridge that are being competed for by semiconductor firms and data centre operators at the same time.

This is one of the markets we recruit in every day. The AI hiring that matters in these markets is not the same as general software hiring. It sits close to the hardware: models that run on an edge device, vision on an imaging sensor, security in an embedded system.
Send the role, or send your CV, and it reaches Ramon rather than a queue. If it is not something we can do well, you will be told that straight away rather than a month from now.
