Senior Software Engineer, Guardrails Team, Tel Aviv - Remote Eligible

Senior Engineer

As a Senior Engineer on the Guardrails team, you'll take ownership of our most high-leverage features: the Policy Engine and approval workflows. These aren't just features; they are the logic layer that governs how risk is accepted or blocked across the entire platform. You will build sophisticated, cross-platform systems that turn messy compliance requirements into streamlined, automated workflows, directly shaping how modern teams ship secure software.

You will join a team that is:

• Redesigning Core Architecture: You will help lead the migration of our policy logic into a high-scale, event-driven data pipeline. You will move us away from legacy services toward a modern, centralized architecture capable of enriching millions of security findings in real-time.
• Solving Complex Identity Challenges: You will tackle one of our hardest engineering problems: persistence and consistency. You will design systems that track software components across different branches and repositories, ensuring that risk decisions follow the code wherever it goes.
• Operating at the Intersection of the Platform: This is a highly collaborative role. You will work across the stack, partner with the scanning engines, data platform, and developer tooling (CLI/IDE) teams, to ensure governance logic is unified and seamless across the entire development lifecycle.

What You'll Do:

• Actively build a new codebase, as well as expanding an existing one
• Play a key role in ideation, shaping the way developers adopt the Snyk platform to secure their applications
• Lead the execution of our policy engines and customer approval workflows development
• Influence roadmap strategy for the future of our platform

What You Bring:

• 7+ years' experience in software engineering, and comfort working in TypeScript and/or Go
• Strong understanding of developer workflows - your perspective as a developer is crucial to our success
• Proven ability to collaborate with engineering peers across multiple product lines

It'd Be Awesome If You Also…

• Have hands-on experience building modern security tools
• Contribute to open-source or developer communities
• Love solving complex problems with a collaborative team
