Sobre a vaga

Senior Software Engineer to join one of our R&D teams building the AI-driven core of our product. You'll design and ship LLM-powered pipelines and agent-based systems that automate and improve how our platform finds, triages, and remediates security risk. The role involves AI-driven features, applied judgment about the AI tooling landscape, and cloud-native architecture in Go.

O que vais fazer
  • Design, build, and own AI-driven features and pipelines; integrating LLMs and agent frameworks into production systems that operate at scale
  • Evaluate emerging AI tools, models, and frameworks against our product needs; produce clear build-vs-buy-vs-integrate recommendations for the team and leadership
  • Stay ahead of the AI landscape such as new LLM releases, agent architectures, orchestration frameworks, and techniques, and translate relevant developments into concrete engineering proposals
  • Design, build, and operate the distributed microservices that these AI features run on (message queues, gRPC/REST APIs, relational databases)
  • Own services end-to-end: architecture, coding, testing, CI/CD, production observability
  • Deploy and operate services in Kubernetes, following GitOps practices
  • Participate in design discussions and code reviews, bringing an AI-informed perspective to architecture decisions
O que é pedido
  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, strong in Go and/or Python
  • Hands-on experience building with LLMs and AI agents (LangChain, LangGraph, or similar), not just experimenting with them
  • A demonstrated habit of evaluating and comparing AI tools, models, or vendors
  • Experience with cloud AI services (AWS Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, Vertex AI)
  • Solid understanding of distributed systems: message queues, gRPC/REST APIs, relational databases
  • Experience with Docker and Kubernetes
  • Strong testing, CI/CD, and observability fundamentals
  • Comfortable in a multi-team microservices environment
  • Excellent English communication skills
Valorizado
  • A genuine research habit, following AI research/practitioner communities
  • Application security knowledge
  • GitOps tooling (ArgoCD, Helm), OpenTelemetry
O que é oferecido
  • great work environment
  • professional development
  • challenging careers
  • competitive compensation
  • great work-life balance
  • great benefits and perks throughout the year
