TL;DR · Senior Software Engineer, Application Security

As a senior software engineer on the Security Applications & Tools (SAT) team at Lattice Platform Security, you will design and build custom distributed systems to detect, manage, and remediate vulnerabilities across Anduril's expansive product ecosystem. Your daily tasks include architecting event-driven services using AWS technologies like Lambda, SQS, S3, and ECR, developing policy-as-code systems for CI/CD pipelines, and creating APIs that integrate security tooling into developer workflows seamlessly. You will also work on data pipelines to aggregate vulnerability findings from multiple scanning engines and collaborate with various engineering teams to address their specific security needs. Proficiency in Go and Python is essential, along with experience in cloud infrastructure, distributed systems, and event-driven architectures. This role involves tackling complex engineering challenges in the realm of application security at scale.

What you'll do

  • Design and build distributed services for vulnerability scanning, policy enforcement, and remediation.
  • Develop an event-driven architecture on AWS to process scan events at organization-wide scale.
  • Build and maintain policy-as-code systems that enforce security policies in CI/CD pipelines.
  • Create APIs and CLIs to integrate security tooling into developer workflows seamlessly.
  • Evaluate third-party tools and build custom integrations or replacements as needed.

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years of experience designing and developing production software systems.
  • Strong proficiency in Go for backend services development.
  • Experience building distributed systems, data pipelines, and event-driven architectures.
  • Proficiency with Python for scripting, automation, and tooling.
  • Cloud infrastructure expertise (AWS: Lambda, SQS, S3, ECR).
  • Ability to read and understand security tool outputs like vulnerability reports.
