About the role:
We’re looking for an experienced software engineer to help drive and evolve our product, focusing on high-impact innovation projects as part of our Linea AI team. You will be working on cutting-edge technology and ideas and bringing AI prototypes to production. You will work closely with Labs team to operationalize and scale AI prototypes across many customers.
What you’ll do:
Design and scale distributed systems: Architect, build, and optimize highly scalable and fault-tolerant systems that process large graph datasets at enterprise scale, handling billions of events in real time from tens of thousands of endpoints with sub-second latency.
Solve complex scaling challenges: Tackle real-world performance and reliability problems through deep analysis, profiling, and systematic troubleshooting in high-throughput distributed environments.
Build with modern infrastructure: Develop and evolve a microservices-based architecture using technologies such as Python, Kubernetes, Docker, and Redis, in a continuously improving production stack.
Engineer secure-by-design software: Write hardened, security-first code capable of safely processing untrusted data, resisting real-world attack vectors, and operating reliably across large-scale, internet-facing systems.
Productionize AI systems: Partner with research and product teams to operationalize AI prototypes, turning experimental models into robust, scalable, and production-ready services.
Who you are:
Proven Backend Expertise: 6+ years of experience building and scaling backend systems, with strong proficiency in Python, powering production applications used at scale.
Full-Stack Impact: Demonstrated track record of designing and delivering full-stack applications that are actively used in real-world, high-traffic environments.
Generative AI & ML at Scale: Hands-on production experience with large-scale foundational models and transformer-based architectures, including deploying, monitoring, and iterating on GenAI systems.
Agent & Workflow Systems: At least 1 year of experience building AI agents and orchestration workflows using frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, Genkit, or similar technologies.
ML Systems & Data Pipelines: Experience delivering machine learning systems at scale, including robust model evaluation, continuous quality improvement pipelines, and data processing using columnar databases and large messaging systems (e.g., Pub/Sub, Kafka).
Ownership & Innovation Mindset: Comfortable working in remote, fast-paced environments, with an entrepreneurial mindset-driven to solve complex, real-world problems through innovation and breakthrough technology.
Good to have:
Security & Product Domain Experience: Background building products in data security, DLP, or application security environments.
Cloud Data & AI Workflows: Experience with GCS and BigQuery, and familiarity with LangGraph or similar frameworks for AI agent orchestration.
LLM Evaluation & Quality Systems: Hands-on experience designing or operating LLM evaluation pipelines, including automated testing, monitoring, and continuous quality improvement.

What We Do
Cyberhaven was founded by computer scientists and security experts from MIT and EPFL to rethink data security. Instead of stopping threats at the perimeter, we trace the full lineage of sensitive data, where it originates, how it moves, and who uses it. This breakthrough became the foundation of our data lineage platform, now powering Cyberhaven’s leadership in data detection and response and protecting enterprises from insider threats and data loss. Our Data Detection and Response solution transforms how enterprises protect their data with a unique technology called data lineage. Cyberhaven records every event for every piece of data – every move, copy, edit, and share to fully understand how data moves throughout your company. We developed an architecture that achieves complete visibility of your data, including as it transits unmanaged cloud apps and unmanaged devices. As data moves throughout your company, from person to person and application to application, it fragments and gets combined with other data. We calculate the lineage for every piece of data starting with its origin through every step it takes. Our product allows you to define what is risky for your organization, enforce actions to protect data, and educate your workforce in real time.
Why Work With Us
Cyberhaven is a Series D unicorn in AI-driven data security, protecting 300+ customers like Motorola, Reddit, and Snowflake. We solve next-gen DLP by tracing full data lineage and enabling real-time insights. As a value-driven company with remote and hybrid work, you’ll grow alongside bold thinkers, making real impact.
