• Work with a modern microservices-based stack including Go, Kubernetes, Bigtable, BigQuery, Spanner, Redis, and Docker.

• Write secure, production-ready code and troubleshoot complex performance and scalability challenges.

• Collaborate with engineering teams to contribute to technical design and architecture decisions.

Who you are

• You have 5+ years of software engineering experience building scalable backend systems and distributed applications.

• You have experience developing cloud-native or SaaS applications, preferably in security or data protection.

• You have experience with AI agents, agentic applications, or AI security, including familiarity with agent frameworks, tool calling, or MCP.

• You have experience integrating and ingesting large-scale data from third-party SaaS, PaaS, or IaaS APIs.

• You have strong programming skills in Go, Python, Java, or Rust, with Go preferred.

• You have hands-on experience with microservices, RESTful APIs, Kubernetes, and public cloud platforms.

• You are familiar with distributed databases such as Bigtable, BigQuery, Spanner, Redis, or graph databases.

• You have strong debugging, performance optimization, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to independently own and deliver technical solutions.

• You communicate effectively and collaborate well with distributed teams.
