About
Description Keeper Security is hiring a Senior Software Engineer to help build and scale the Windows endpoint agent for our Endpoint Privilege Manager (EPM/KEPM) solution. This is a 100% remote position, with an opportunity to work a hybrid schedule for candidates based in the Chicago, IL or El Dorado Hills, CA metro areas.
Keeper’s cybersecurity software is trusted by millions of people and thousands of organizations globally. Keeper is published in 23 languages and is sold in over 150 countries. Join one of the fastest-growing cybersecurity companies and help deliver enterprise‑grade endpoint privilege controls that reduce attack surface, prevent misuse of admin rights, and support audit and compliance requirements.
About the Role As a Senior Software Engineer on the EPM Windows Agent team, you will remain hands‑on designing and implementing agent capabilities that run on endpoints and enforce privilege policy in real time. You’ll build elevation workflows, local policy evaluation, telemetry and audit logging, and hardened controls that operate reliably at scale across enterprise environments. You will partner closely with Product, QA Automation and Security to ship high‑quality releases and continuously strengthen security and operability.
Responsibilities
Design, build, and maintain Windows agent components for EPM, including privilege elevation workflows, policy enforcement, and audit logging
Implement secure local policy evaluation and caching to support offline/online operation and consistent enforcement
Build robust agent lifecycle capabilities including installation, upgrades, rollback safety, and configuration management
Integrate the agent with management‑plane services and APIs for policy distribution, device identity, telemetry, and reporting
Strengthen tamper resistance and abuse prevention (e.g., protecting services/processes, hardening configuration and update flows)
Improve diagnostics and observability (structured logs, health signals, performance profiling, crash handling) to support enterprise deployments
Collaborate with QA Automation to improve test coverage and reliability across unit, integration and end‑to‑end test suites
Participate in secure SDLC practices, threat modeling, code reviews, and on‑call/incident response as needed
Requirements
5+ years of professional software engineering experience delivering production software
Strong experience building Windows‑native software such as services, endpoint agents, system utilities, or security tooling
Proficiency in one or more languages commonly used for Windows agent development (e.g., C/C++, C#, Rust, Go)
Solid understanding of Windows security and privilege models (UAC/elevation concepts, tokens/identity, process execution, access controls)
Experience with packaging and deployment patterns in enterprise Windows environments (installers, signing, upgrades)
Strong debugging skills for complex issues (concurrency, performance, stability, and root cause analysis)
Experience building automated tests and working in CI/CD environments; strong engineering hygiene around reviews and documentation
Strong communication skills and ability to partner cross‑functionally with Product, QA and Security
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with endpoint privilege management, EDR/EPP agents, device management, or identity/security products
Familiarity with secure update mechanisms, code signing, and release hardening for endpoint software
Exposure to IT admin and MSP workflows, scripting, and enterprise deployment tooling (e.g., Intune, GPO, SCCM)
Exposure to secure SDLC practices and compliance‑minded engineering (e.g., SOC 2, FedRAMP, NIST)
Medical, Dental & Vision (inclusive of domestic partnerships)
Employer Paid Life Insurance & Employee/Spouse/Child Supplemental Life
Voluntary Short/Long Term Disability Insurance
401K (Roth/Traditional)
A generous PTO plan that celebrates your commitment and seniority (including paid Bereavement/Jury Duty, etc.)
