About the role

  • Design, build, and maintain core KEPM/EPM capabilities, including policy evaluation, privilege enforcement, elevation workflows, and audit logging.
  • Develop and harden endpoint agent components (services/daemons, installers/updaters, local policy caching, secure IPC) with a focus on security, reliability, and performance.
  • Implement platform integrations and management-plane capabilities (APIs, admin workflows, telemetry) to support enterprise deployment, monitoring, and troubleshooting.
  • Partner with Product to review technical approaches, break down epics, and deliver incremental value through well-scoped releases.
  • Collaborate with QA Automation to expand test coverage (unit, integration, end-to-end), improve CI reliability, and build testable interfaces into agent and service components.
  • Participate in security reviews and threat modeling; remediate vulnerabilities and improve tamper resistance and abuse prevention.
  • Improve observability and diagnosability across components (structured logging, metrics, crash reporting, debug tooling).
  • Participate in on-call and incident response as needed; contribute to postmortems and prevention measures.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience delivering production software
  • Proficiency in one or more systems/backend languages such as C/C++, Rust, Go, C#/.NET, or Java, with the ability to work across a multi-language codebase
  • Experience building system-level software (endpoint agents, desktop applications, services/daemons, security tooling, or device management components)
  • Strong understanding of OS security concepts and privilege models (least privilege, process execution, access control, secure update/signing patterns)
  • Experience debugging and optimizing complex software (concurrency, performance profiling, memory/threading issues)
  • Experience building automated tests and working in CI/CD environments; strong engineering hygiene around code review, testing, and documentation
  • Strong communication skills and ability to partner cross-functionally with Product, QA, and Security.
  • Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience with endpoint privilege management, EDR/EPP, device management, or identity/security products
  • Deep expertise in at least one endpoint OS ecosystem (Windows, macOS, or Linux) and its privilege/security model (services/daemons, elevation flows, packaging, and code signing)
  • Experience designing policy engines (rules evaluation, precedence, auditability, and explainability)
  • Familiarity with enterprise identity and integrations (SAML, OIDC, SCIM) and/or IT admin tooling and workflows (RMM/PSA, scripting, software deployment)
  • Exposure to secure SDLC practices and compliance-minded engineering (e.g., SOC 2, FedRAMP, NIST)
Benefits
  • Medical, Dental & Vision (inclusive of domestic partnerships)
  • Employer Paid Life Insurance & Employee/Spouse/Child Supplemental Life
  • Voluntary Short/Long Term Disability Insurance
  • 401K (Roth/Traditional)
