You'll be architecting and developing cloud-native solutions that help organizations discover, inventory, and assess their entire digital attack surface at scale. This greenfield initiative will revolutionize how enterprises understand and manage their exposure by correlating asset data with comprehensive risk intelligence including vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and threat indicators. A critical component of this platform involves building sophisticated integration frameworks to seamlessly connect with dozens of third-party security vendors, cloud providers, and enterprise tools - creating a unified view of organizational risk from disparate data sources across the security ecosystem.

5. Develop APIs that enable seamless integration with existing security orchestration and GRC workflows
6. Be part of a global team of highly skilled and passionate engineers, building and maintaining cloud services
7. Collaborate with others across multiple teams to brainstorm, research, and build solutions that are driven by our Product roadmap
8. Understand business and engineering requirements so that you can be proactive in sharing ideas and solutions
9. Have a strong focus on quality of code through best practices, testing, logging and metrics
10. Mentor junior engineers and contribute to technical decision-making across the team
