We are looking for a driven, technically curious Staff Backend Developer to join a cutting-edge team focused on Agentless Scanning within Cortex Cloud, our company's next-generation cloud security platform. Based in our Tel Aviv (TLV) office, you will be at the forefront of cloud security innovation. Our team's mission is to help Cortex Cloud customers discover, understand, and fix security vulnerabilities in their workloads across all major cloud providers. This role is ideal for a proactive engineer with a strong "can-do" attitude, a passion for solving complex technical problems, and a desire to grow rapidly alongside experienced mentors. If you love digging into backend systems and want to see your code directly impact global enterprise customers, we want to hear from you!
Your Impact
Hands-on Backend Development: Contribute to the design, development, testing, and deployment of features and core components within the Agentless domain.
Feature Ownership: Collaborate closely with senior team members and partners across Cortex Cloud to deliver high-quality features from inception to production.
Customer-Centric Problem Solving: Help build robust solutions that address the day-to-day security challenges faced by our customers.
Continuous Learning & Collaboration: Actively participate in team-wide engineering practices, including code reviews, technical discussions, and agile processes, to continuously elevate your skills.

Requirements:
Backend Engineering: 2+ years of professional experience contributing to production-grade backend services. You should be comfortable navigating existing codebases and delivering features independently.
Languages: Experience in at least one major backend language (Go, Java, Python, Rust, C#, or Node.js). While Go (Golang) is our primary stack, we value polyglot engineers who are excited to master Go and write idiomatic, clean code.
Engineering Fundamentals: Solid understanding of data structures, algorithms, and the basics of RESTful API design. You should have an understanding of distributed systems design.
Quality Standards: A "test-first" mindset. Experience writing unit and integration tests and a commitment to participating in (and learning from) rigorous code reviews.
Cloud & Infrastructure: Familiarity with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
Education: B.Sc. in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent technical/military experience.
Advantages
Reliability & Debugging: Experience using observability tools (e.g., Datadog, Prometheus, or ELK stack) to troubleshoot issues in a production environment.
Go Fundamentals: Experience with Gos concurrency model (goroutines/channels) or a strong desire to dive deep into the language.
SaaS Curiosity: Experience working on a multi-tenant product or a keen interest in distributed systems architecture.
AI Interest: Hands-on experimentation with LLMs or an interest in how AI agents are integrated into backend workflows.
