Responsibilities

• Lead, mentor, and grow a cross-functional team of backend, frontend, and research engineers.
• Act as a hands-on technical leader: design critical systems, write production code when needed, and set a high engineering bar.
• Own backend systems end-to-end, from architecture and design through implementation and production delivery.
• Drive technical direction and architectural decisions for large-scale cybersecurity platforms.
• Lead the delivery of complex LLM- and agent-based solutions to production, ensuring they meet enterprise standards for reliability, scalability, security, and observability.
• Partner closely with Product, Research, and Client Services to translate complex technical challenges into clear, high-impact product capabilities.
• Ensure backend systems are built with a strong emphasis on security, correctness, and long-term maintainability.
• Review code, guide design decisions, and promote best practices across the team.
• Foster a culture of ownership, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

Requirements

• 7+ years of experience in backend software development, with at least 2 years in a technical leadership or team lead role.
• Proven experience designing and building scalable, highly available backend systems in production.

• Identity and access management
• Authentication and authorization mechanisms
• Policy, permissions, and access-control models
• Security-related data processing or control planes
• Deep understanding of software design principles such as SOLID, modularity, testability, and long-term maintainability.
• Experience leading systems through the full software development lifecycle: design, development, deployment, and ongoing evolution.
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to align technical, research, and product stakeholders.

Team & Personality

• SaaS application configuration and security controls
• Monitoring and detection of suspicious or risky behavior within SaaS applications
• Integrating with SaaS APIs for security visibility and enforcement
• Familiarity with Go, Scala, Python, and modern backend ecosystems.
• Experience with microservices, event-driven architectures, and distributed systems.
• Experience deploying and operating services on AWS, Azure, or GCP.
• Exposure to LLMs, NLP, or agent-based systems, including taking complex solutions from concept to production.
• BSc in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
