Principal Software Engineer – AI Security

Stellenbeschreibung:

Architect, extend, and optimize a large-scale, highly scalable, fault-tolerant system that handles large graph datasets at enterprise scale processing billions of AI-related events from hundreds of thousands of endpoints in real time, with sub-second latency requirements.
Set technical direction for how Cyberhaven secures data flowing into and out of AI models, GenAI applications, and agents, shaping architecture decisions that will define this product line for years to come.
Architect and implement security features that protect customer data end-to-end.
Solve real-world scaling problems that require thorough performance analysis and troubleshooting.
Work with a modern, constantly evolving microservices based stack including Go, Kubernetes, BigTable, BigQuery, Spanner, Redis, Docker, and Etcd.
Design and build connectors that integrate at the API level with SaaS and AI platforms commonly used in the enterprise (e.g. ChatGPT, Copilot, and other GenAI tools).
