About the job

As a Staff Software Engineer, you’ll be a technical leader and hands-on contributor, driving critical initiatives from concept to production. You’ll architect, build, and mentor while partnering cross-functionally with Product, AI, and Security. This is a high-impact role where you’ll influence technical direction, mentor engineers, and ensure delivery of scalable, secure services that meet enterprise-grade expectations.

What You’ll Do
• Own end-to-end delivery of major platform initiatives, from design through deployment and post-launch success.
• Design, develop, and optimize distributed microservices in Golang for scale, reliability, and performance.
• Collaborate across teams — Product, AI, and Customer Success — to align architecture with business objectives.
• Drive engineering excellence through code quality standards, design reviews, automation, and CI/CD best practices.
• Be a mentor and multiplier, guiding software engineers through architecture decisions, trade-offs, and delivery.
• Partner with leadership to align engineering strategy with product objectives and technical roadmap.

What We’re Looking For
• 8+ years in software engineering with cloud-native architecture experience.
• Proven record of driving technical projects end-to-end, coordinating across teams and stakeholders.
• Strong hands-on background in microservices architecture, distributed systems, and API-driven design.
• Expertise in Kubernetes, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines in a cloud environment (Azure preferred).
• Familiarity with modern databases, gRPC, message queues, and DevOps automation.
• Strong problem-solving, communication, and leadership skills — comfortable leading discussions from code to business impact.
• (Bonus) Understanding or interest in cybersecurity, AI-driven systems, or threat intelligence.

Our Culture
• Ownership & Leadership: Engineers make decisions and own outcomes.
• Mentorship & Growth: Learn from industry leaders and experiment with the frontier of AI and cybersecurity.
• Collaboration & Inclusion: We value diverse perspectives that challenge the status quo and fuel innovation.
• Impact Mindset: Every line of code contributes to shaping the future of enterprise security.
