Role

We are looking for a Software Development Engineer to join our Cloud Browser Isolation Product Team within the Engineering department. This is a hybrid role based in Bangalore, reporting to the Senior Manager, Software Engineering. You will help build and scale the world’s largest cloud security platform, bringing your vision and passion to a team of experts enabling organizations worldwide to harness speed and agility with a cloud-first strategy.

What you’ll do (Role Expectations)

Design, build, and maintain integrations with internal or external products and services to enhance offerings beyond a single solution
Implement APIs and microservices in Go (Golang) for scalable data exchange and real-time session handling
Collaborate with architects, product owners, and engineering teams to ensure cloud services align with company standards
Develop and maintain solutions for traffic management, monitoring, and logging to ensure high reliability and efficient debugging
Participate in on-call rotations to promptly investigate and resolve production issues while continuously improving system reliability

Who You Are (Success Profile)

You thrive in ambiguity. You're comfortable building the path as you walk it. You thrive in a dynamic environment, seeing ambiguity not as a hindrance, but as the raw material to build something meaningful.
You act like an owner. Your passion for the mission fuels your bias for action. You operate with integrity because you genuinely care about the outcome. True ownership involves leveraging dynamic range: the ability to navigate seamlessly between high-level strategy and hands-on execution.
You are a problem-solver. You love running towards the challenges because you are laser-focused on finding the solution, knowing that solving the hard problems delivers the biggest impact.
You are a high-trust collaborator. You are ambitious for the team, not just yourself. You embrace our challenge culture by giving and receiving ongoing feedback—knowing that candor delivered with clarity and respect is the truest form of teamwork and the fastest way to earn trust.
You are a learner. You have a true growth mindset and are obsessed with your own development, actively seeking feedback to become a better partner and a stronger teammate. You love what you do and you do it with purpose.

What We’re Looking for (Minimum Qualifications)

3+ years of professional software development experience, with at least 2 years focused on developing backend cloud systems using Go (Golang)
Proficiency in building APIs using HTTP, gRPC, or REST and managing secure endpoint communication
Experience with containerized application development using Docker and orchestration with Kubernetes
Proven track record of building backend systems with high performance and reliability expectations
