Staff Backend Engineer

SafetyCulture is a global technology company that is helping to transform workplaces around the world. After witnessing the tragedy of workplace incidents as a private investigator, SafetyCulture Founder Luke Anear recruited a team to help him develop a mobile solution for frontline workers. What we have created is a market-leading workplace operations platform that helps give teams the knowledge, tools, and confidence they need to meet higher standards, work safely, and improve every day.

 

The role
SafetyCulture's platform is used by frontline teams across some of the world's most complex organisations. The way we model permissions, manage access, and enforce security boundaries directly determines whether those organisations trust us with their most sensitive operations.

This role exists to own the technical direction of how SafetyCulture handles identity, access control, and permissions at scale — and to make that capability genuinely best-in-class. You'll drive architecture decisions that affect every team building on top of our platform, and set the bar for how we design and deliver security-critical systems.

We use a modern technology stack including Swift/Kotlin/C++ (mobile); React.js (front end); Golang/node.js (back end); AWS/Kafka/Kubernetes (infrastructure).
