As a Senior Software Engineer, you'll make significant contributions to developing a user-friendly platform that prioritizes phishing-resistant MFA, continuous device security, and seamless policy management.
We are looking for a results-oriented engineer with deep domain knowledge who can participate in product strategy, design, and implementation. The ideal candidate possesses exceptional technical talent, strong collaboration skills, and a deep desire to understand our product. You should be an effective communicator, candid, a consensus-builder, approachable, relatable, and someone who inspires trust and confidence in others, able to make meaningful and long-lasting connections.
You will thrive in our fast-paced environment as we navigate rapid growth and tackle significant technical challenges at scale. Our strong company culture is built on a commitment to achieving goals and delivering on timelines. This hybrid role requires 3 days per week in our Warsaw office, fostering collaboration and team synergy under the leadership of the Engineering Manager based in Poland.
What You Can Expect to Do:- Architect, design, and implement robust, scalable, and secure backend services and APIs to solve complex challenges in the identity and access management space.
- Drive technical initiatives and contribute significantly to the design and architecture of our cloud-native platform.
- Develop and maintain high-performance, low-latency distributed systems crucial for our Secure Access product.
- Write clean, efficient, and maintainable code, primarily in Rust and Golang.
- Actively collaborate with your team members, including backend, frontend, and data engineers, sharing knowledge and best practices.

- Demonstrated expertise in designing and implementing scalable, performant, and secure services.
- Production experience with microservices architecture, distributed system design, and applying cloud engineering best practices (e.g., AWS, Kubernetes).
- Familiarity with modern CI/CD tools and practices (e.g., Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes, Helm).
- A strong emphasis on test automation and test-driven development.
- Experience with authentication protocols and standards (including OIDC, SAML, OAuth2.0, and others like SCIM, ADFS, WSFED, LDAP).
- Understanding of database management, design, and optimization for both relational and NoSQL databases.
- Strong communication skills with the ability to clearly articulate technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
