Innovate with Autonomy : Embrace the freedom to design and build top-tier tools that will be leveraged across all teams at Endor, making a significant impact on our operations. Champion Observability : Apply best practices in observability to ensure our products and platforms achieve exceptional reliability and availability for our users. What We're Looking For Engineering Expertise : Bachelor's in engineering and 3-5 years of experience. Golang Mastery : Showcase ~3 years of experience in Golang programming, with a deep focus on microservices and distributed architecture, to drive our cutting-edge solutions. Build tools and tool chains familiarity - How different tool chains like Maven, pip, npm work to provide a seamless scan experience for our customers. Scalable Systems : Bring your experience with scalable distributed systems, including microservices, domain-driven design, load balancing, and scaling strategies (both horizontal and vertical), to tackle complex challenges. Effective Communicator : Leverage your ability to discuss architectural trade-offs and guide teams towards the most effective solutions, ensuring alignment and forward momentum. Adaptable Innovator : Thrive in a fast-paced environment with shifting requirements, embracing change and finding creative solutions to new and unfamiliar problems. AI Savvy - Leverage AI and automated code generation tools to accelerate the delivery of robust, security-hardened, and production-grade software. Preferred Skills Master of Secure Design : Expertise in secure software design principles, including managing certificates, OAuth2/OIDC, and implementing secure changes. Cloud-Native Proficiency : Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, Docker, Lambda functions, or other cutting-edge cloud-native technologies. Security Savvy : Knowledge of security, fraud prevention, and anomaly detection to tackle real-world challenges and safeguard our systems with cutting-edge solutions. Why Endor Labs We're building at the intersection of developer productivity and security - one of the fastest-growing spaces in software. Our dev-loved platform has real ROI, strong momentum, and customers who care about doing things right. At Endor Labs, we think big, start small, and learn fast. We take ownership, move with purpose, and always start with the customer's success. We debate with data, make the complex simple, and challenge each other with kindness and candor.
