Summary

Backend-focused Software Engineer building Athena, a system for securing the open source supply chain at enterprise scale. Own Go services on GCP, data ingestion/validation workflows, and infrastructure with Terraform.

About the role

What you'll do

  • Own moderately complex backend features and services in Go on GCP end-to-end from design through production with support as needed.
  • Write clean, tested, production-ready code and improve it when you find things that don't meet that bar.
  • Work within data ingestion and validation workflows, learning the patterns for handling unstructured enterprise data.
  • Participate in code review, both giving and receiving direct, constructive feedback.
  • Contribute to infrastructure and configuration work using Terraform with support from senior engineers.
  • Support operational work by contributing to observability tooling, documentation, and on-call preparation as you grow into the role.

  • 3+ years of software engineering experience.
  • Backend engineering fundamentals: data structures, APIs, databases, systems thinking.
  • Go experience or strong experience in another statically typed language with demonstrated willingness to learn Go is a must.
  • You write code you're not embarrassed to have reviewed: readable, tested, and thoughtfully structured.
  • Curiosity and a methodical approach to debugging and data problems; ability to reason about systems you didn't build.
  • GCP or cloud platform experience.
  • Experience with or strong interest in data pipelines, validation logic, or workflow systems.
  • Security or infrastructure domain exposure.
