Bodega Bay, United States Abnormal Security Full time
Job DescriptionJob DescriptionAbout the Role

Enterprises of all sizes trust Abnormal Security's cloud products to stop cybercrime. Being effective at stopping cybercrime, due to its adversarial nature, requires a high level of agility to respond to threats. Our Research and Development organization has formed an Advanced Technology Group (ATG) dedicated to solving the most technically-challenging and business critical problems facing us and our customers. ATG is responsible for building high-impact, enterprise-grade solutions that can scale and meet the stringent availability, privacy, and security requirements demanded by our customers.

Abnormal's business is growing quickly. As a cloud-based SaaS provider approaching IPO, we must be intentional regarding our resource allocation and spend. As a member of this key group, you will partner with our senior-most engineering leaders (including our Chief Architect) to optimize and re-architect key systems for performance and efficiency. This is a highly cross-functional role with exposure across all of our product suite and development stack,

You should definitely apply to this role if you:

  • Are passionate about working across engineering to identify and deliver technical solutions to improve efficiency of the Abnormal's SAAS email product offerings.
  • Have expertise building business-critical systems at high scale and consider yourself a backend generalist.
  • Want to work with engineering leaders from across Abnormal to drive progress within R&D.
  • Are excited to drive cloud cost awareness throughout the organization and develop strategies to reduce our overall infrastructure spend without compromising product quality or customer satisfaction.
What you will do
  • Work closely with Abnormal Architects to identify cost efficiency, performance and scaling challenges facing our product and identify solutions to those problems.
  • Design and deliver long-term solutions that deliver scale/efficiency and can be maintained and operated by other engineering teams.
  • Influence the entire development stack with a focus on cloud cost optimization, from infrastructure choices to application design.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with teams across R&D.

This is a leadership role on the team and you will be expected to contribute both code and guidance to the team: you will be accountable for delivering great solutions and simultaneously making the team around you better.

Must Haves
  • 8+ years of experience in building large-scale distributed cloud systems and architectures on AWS
  • Proven track record of defining and driving engineering initiatives that involve cross-team collaboration
  • 2+ years of experience as a tech lead
  • Backend generalist with both breadth and depth of experience with several backend architectures (streaming, event driven, RPC-based, serverless, etc.) and technologies (data stores, caches, RPCs, etc.)
  • Proven experience with systems-level programming in one or more of the following modern languages: Java, Scala, Kotlin, Go, Rust, C++, or C
  • Proven track record mentoring engineers and "raising the bar" for the whole team
  • Independent and self-motivated
Nice to Have
  • Experience building cloud enterprise applications.
  • Experience building software libraries and/or components leveraged by other engineering teams.
  • Experience technologies in the Abnormal Security stack: Go, Python, gPRC, AWS, Kubernetes, Bazel, Terraform, Terragrunt, Prometheus, PostgreSQL, Kafka, Redis
