Hiring Staff / Principal Software and Security Engineers for US-based IAM, AppSec and AI Security vendors 🦀

Principal Software Engineer @ Seed Cybersecurity Startup

Confero are partnered with a seed-funded ($5M) Cybersecurity startup, founded by a repeat entrepreneur who spent over 8 years at a leading cybersecurity / data powerhouse.

They have built an AI-native platform that deploys multiple AI agents (or AI Swarms) that help reduce telemetry noise drastically for SOC teams.

They have product‑market fit, multiple customers, and a Series A approaching.

They’re hiring a Principal Software Engineer to design and own our data ingestion architecture. You’ll build streaming and batch pipelines that handle high‑throughput security telemetry, from security logs to cloud events to threat intelligence feeds.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design from scratch, then implement scalable data ingestion systems for massive security datasets
  • Build distributed systems for real‑time security data processing and analysis
  • Make foundational decisions on cloud infrastructure, data modelling, and system architecture
  • Own the full stack from ingestion architecture to implementation

Required Qualifications

  • 8+ years of experience building distributed systems
  • Deep expertise in streaming architecture and batch processing (Kafka, Spark, Flink)
  • Strong background in cloud infrastructure (AWS strongly preferred)
  • Proficiency in Go, Python, or Java
  • Previous startup experience, especially in early‑stage / cybersecurity environments
  • Please apply for more details, including a full briefing of the role.
