Principal Software Engineer

You will have the chance to shape how modern software supply chains are secured not by tweaking an existing playbook, but by helping write a new one.

You’ll be working on a security-critical platform that sits directly in the path of how software is built, shared, and deployed. Every architectural decision you make will influence how thousands of engineering teams reason about trust, risk, and compliance in their dependencies.

This role is about technical leadership at scale:

• Setting technical direction for a team redefining artifact security
• Designing systems that combine policy engines, vulnerability intelligence, SBOMs, and real-time enforcement
• Tackling hard distributed systems problems where correctness, performance, and security all matter
• Raising the bar through deep code reviews, mentoring, and pragmatic architectural judgment

You’ll thrive here if you:

• Have built and evolved complex, production systems ideally Python AND AWS, open to people with multicloud and different backgrounds (Go etc,)
• Enjoy operating in ambiguity xcfaprz and turning vague problems into concrete systems
• Care deeply about software quality, security, and long-term maintainability
• Want influence without politics your impact comes from technical credibility

This is a role for someone who wants leverage: fewer meetings, more impact, and problems that actually matter.
