About The Role
We are seeking a highly skilled Software Engineer to join our team building a network vulnerability scanning platform deployed as a Docker container. This role involves designing, developing, and maintaining a complex security product that operates at both low-level network and application-layer protocols, with a strong focus on performance, reliability, and security.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and maintain core components of a network vulnerability scanning engine in C/C++.
- Analyze requirements and collaborate with product management and security researchers to translate them into robust, scalable implementations.
- Implement and optimize network protocol handling at both low-level (TCP/IP, packet parsing) and application-layer protocols (HTTP(S), SMB, SSH, etc.).
- Participate in code reviews, enforce best practices, and contribute to improving software quality and security.
- Troubleshoot and debug complex issues involving networking, container environments, and system-level interactions.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with QA, DevOps, and security researchers to deliver high-quality releases on time.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
- 8+ years of relevant experience.
- Strong proficiency in C/C++ for systems programming.
- Solid understanding of computer networking, including TCP/IP, sockets programming, and application-layer protocols (HTTP, SMB, SSH, etc.).
- Experience with Linux systems programming and debugging at low levels (network stack, file systems, concurrency).
- Strong problem-solving and debugging skills, with attention to performance and scalability.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in security software development or vulnerability scanning tools.
- Experience with CI/CD pipelines and modern DevOps workflows.
- Knowledge of secure coding practices and exposure to cryptographic libraries.
- Experience with Cloud providers such as AWS/OCI/Azure is a big plus.
- Strong affinity to automation for any repetitive tasks.
