About the Role
We're looking for a driven, self-starting Senior Backend Engineer who is passionate about building scalable systems and solving complex engineering challenges. This is an opportunity to support with the ownership of critical services at the core of our security platform, shaping not only how we build software, but how we leverage emerging AI-powered development practices to accelerate delivery while maintaining exceptional standards of quality, security, and reliability.
You'll work alongside security analysts, product managers, and engineers across the business to design, build, and operate resilient backend systems that make a meaningful impact. We value engineers who think beyond tickets, challenge assumptions, take initiative, and help elevate the people and technology around them.

This role is 5 days a week onsite.

What You'll Do
Take ownership of the design, development, and operation of production-grade Python microservices using FastAPI (and Django where appropriate), applying up-to-date architectural principles including domain-driven design,



asynchronous programming, and clean architecture.
Build and evolve event-driven systems that are resilient by design, implementing patterns such as idempotency, retry handling, dead-letter processing, and back-pressure management.
Own services from concept through production, operating within AWS environments using technologies such as EKS, RDS/PostgreSQL, IAM, messaging services, and S3, with infrastructure managed through Terraform and delivered via GitHub Actions and FluxCD.
Partner closely with frontend engineers working within an Angular microfrontend architecture to create intuitive, well-versioned APIs and seamless integration experiences.
Champion engineering excellence through comprehensive testing strategies including unit, integration, contract, and end-to-end testing. We believe observability, testing, and CI/CD quality signals are core product features, not afterthoughts.
