If you enjoy building the “plumbing” that makes a security product actually work—auth flows, brittle third‑party APIs, weird edge cases, and pulling reliable signals out of messy systems—this role is built for you.

You’ll join a fast‑growing, Series A security & compliance SaaS company building a platform that continuously monitors customer cloud environments and connected tools to detect misconfigurations, risky access, encryption gaps, exposed storage, and compliance drift. Your focus: the integrations layer that powers those detections.

What you’ll build (the low-level, technical work)

You’ll build and own production integrations connecting the platform to:

  • Cloud provider APIs (AWS/GCP/Azure) for inventory, configuration, and security posture signals
  • Third‑party security / SaaS tools with APIs that evolve, rate-limit, paginate, and sometimes break
  • Authentication + identity flows across systems: OAuth 2.0 / OIDC, service accounts, signed creds, API keys

This is not “hit an endpoint and map JSON.” It’s:

  • designing resilient ingestion + normalization pipelines
  • dealing with unstable schemas, partial failures, retries/backoff, and idempotency
  • building observability (logs/metrics/alerts) so you can detect when a provider changes behavior
  • caring about data quality and coverage, because downstream security features depend on it

What you’ll do

  • Build and maintain integrations with AWS, GCP, Azure and third‑party services
  • Normalize and validate data across providers so signals are consistent and trustworthy
  • Implement and maintain authentication patterns (OAuth/OIDC/API keys/service accounts)
  • Ensure integrations are reliable and operable in production (retries, monitoring, alerting, runbooks)
  • Write clear documentation for mappings, behaviors, and troubleshooting
  • Collaborate closely with product/engineering to ensure integrations deliver what detections need

What we’re looking for (hard requirements)

  • Recent, production Go (Golang) experience (recency matters) ideally or ability to quickly move to Go from C++ OR C# OR C or other low level languages
  • Real-world REST API integration experience (pagination, rate limits, evolving schemas, quirks)
  • Exposure to at least one of AWS or GCP or Azure APIs/SDKs (not just “hosted on AWS”)
  • SQL (hands-on querying; ideally some schema ownership too)
  • Concrete experience with OAuth 2.0 / OIDC / service accounts / signed credentials
  • Strong reliability instincts: monitoring/logging/alerting + robust error handling
  • Experience operating a SaaS backend (not a one-off integration project)

Nice-to-haves

  • Security domain familiarity (IAM, identity, audit trails, compliance)
  • Integration testing approaches (contract tests, sandbox strategies, debuggability)
  • Background in compiled, strongly typed languages (Go preferred; Rust/Java/C#/C++ also relevant)

Next steps

Interested in building endpoint software and/or transitioning into Go while staying close to systems-level engineering?

Apply with your CV, and we’ll come back quickly to arrange a first conversation.
