The Role
About Netskope

Today, there's more data and users outside the enterprise than inside, causing the network perimeter as we know it to dissolve. We realized a new perimeter was needed, one that is built in the cloud and follows and protects data wherever it goes, so we started Netskope to redefine Cloud, Network and Data Security. 

Since 2012, we have built the market-leading cloud security company and an award-winning culture powered by hundreds of employees spread across offices in Santa Clara, St. Louis, Bangalore, London, Paris, Melbourne, Taipei, and Tokyo. Our core values are openness, honesty, and transparency, and we purposely developed our open desk layouts and large meeting spaces to support and promote partnerships, collaboration, and teamwork. From catered lunches and office celebrations to employee recognition events and social professional groups such as the Awesome Women of Netskope (AWON), we strive to keep work fun, supportive and interactive.  Visit us at Netskope Careers. Please follow us on LinkedIn and Twitter@Netskope.

About the Role

The Foundation Engineering team powers the core infrastructure of the Netskope SASE platform. We are solving the challenge of propagating runtime configuration state across a massive footprint of 100+ data centers in near real-time. We are seeking a Senior Staff Engineer to architect a resilient, file-based synchronization engine from the ground up. You will define the strategy for data consistency, handle network partitioning scenarios, and build a system capable of managing high-throughput config delivery with minimal latency.

What’s in It for You

We are seeking engineers who are passionate about tackling complex challenges and developing highly reliable, performant, and scalable cloud services capable of supporting hundreds of millions of devices. You will take on full life-cycle development responsibilities, which include requirements analysis, technical architecture and design, implementation, testing, documentation, deployment to production, and post-production ownership.


What You Will Be Doing

  • Designing and developing microservices that can scale to handle billions of events.
  • Contributing to the architecture, design, and implementation of next-generation foundational cloud services.
  • Evaluating open-source technologies to identify the best solutions for our needs, and contributing to these technologies to address our unique requirements while supporting the community.
  • Coordinating with other service development teams, product management, and support teams to ensure scalability, supportability, and availability for both owned and dependent services.

Required Skills and Experience

  • A minimum of 10 years of software development experience.
  • Exceptional programming skills with hands-on experience in Golang.
  • Experience in designing and developing cloud microservices that are deployed and utilized at scale.
  • Strong understanding of distributed systems, data structures, and algorithms.
  • An energetic self-starter with a desire to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.

Education
