Job Description:

Our client is looking for an experienced Senior Software Engineer to help scale our Product Security team.

You Will:

  • Incorporate security, resiliency, and quality into Product Security products and solutions to reduce risk without adding developer friction.
  • Design, build and evolve automated capabilities that are self-service, efficient, and dependable and can be leveraged company-wide across engineering teams.
  • Pick up new technologies, languages and frameworks quickly, apply them to your daily work, and share learnings to upskill the team.
  • Work independently on ambiguous problems, drive designs to decisions, and mentor other engineers through code reviews, pairing, and technical talks.
  • Continuously identify and reduce technical debt that increases risk or developer friction.
  • Collaborate with your Engineering Manager and tech lead to provide feedback on product roadmaps and backlog priorities.
  • Coordinate with Product Engineering to design solutions that automate security processes across the SDLC.
  • Suggest secure defaults and advise on clean coding practices, pipeline test coverage, and observability/alerting.
  • Participate in standups, desk checks, tech huddles, and story grooming meetings to provide guidance where it moves the work forward.
  • Record decisions, context, and outcomes related to design choices, and prepare Architecture Decision Records (ADRs).

You Have:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science or Information Technology, or equivalent experience.
  • 3 years of experience in software engineering, architecture, administration, observability in a large and distributed environment working across multiple teams.
  • Knowledge of cloud native event-driven microservices-based architectures, including operational concerns such as performance, resiliency, observability, monitoring, service discovery, and routing.
  • 3 years as a full stack engineer building and operating services in production, including modern web frontends with React or a similar framework.
  • 3 years coding in higher-level languages such as Python or Java in a multi-team codebase.
  • Experience implementing DevSecOps solutions that integrate smoothly into teams’ development lifecycles, with measurable improvement to developer experience.
  • Experience deploying organization-wide secrets as a service and integrating with pipelines and runtime applications.
  • Working knowledge of containers and Kubernetes, APIs, and web services, including building services with FastAPI or similar frameworks.
  • Cloud experience with AWS, GCP, or Azure via UI, API, and CLI or automation
  • Experience implementing infrastructure as code, such as Terraform and automation via API or CLI.
  • Experience with CI/CD principles and the ability to diagnose and improve pipeline issues.
  • Familiarity with common DevOps tools such as Ansible, Jenkins, or GitHub, and similar.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to mentor, influence, and collaborate across teams

Salary/Rate: $30-$40/HR (depends on experience level). This is a contract position with candidates expected to work 40 hours/ week.
