Your Role

What You Could Be Working On

Backend & Infrastructure: Write backend code and automation in Go within a large, production-grade codebase. You will learn established patterns for scalable infrastructure under the guidance of senior engineers, deploying and managing containerized applications across Kubernetes clusters and AWS infrastructure (EKS, ECR, IAM).

AI & Agent Development: Build long-running agents that unleash the full power of the Securiti AI + Veeam platforms for CISOs and security analysts. This includes unlocking automated breach impact analysis, compliance reporting, and data access auditing across hybrid multicloud environments.

Agent Evaluation & Knowledge Pipelines: Develop Agent Evaluation Pipelines to measurably assess reliability and task completion rates. You will also build knowledge discovery pipelines that surface institutional knowledge (policy research, compliance frameworks) into agent-consumable layers for sharper decision-making.

Security & Vulnerability Management: Analyze Kubernetes deployment configurations to identify and fix security gaps. You will help manage the CVE lifecycle by identifying and patching vulnerabilities in container images to harden the platform.

Tooling & Reliability: Develop internal tooling, testing harnesses, and security utilities to improve team productivity. You will also execute and validate API and cross-service integration tests to ensure system reliability as the platform evolves.
