Software Engineering Tech Lead – Data & Cyber

What you’ll do in the role:

Technical Leadership

• Define and drive the technical strategy and roadmap for security engineering within the Cloud and Platform Security domain
• Architect end-to-end data pipelines and platforms that support security telemetry, compliance reporting, and risk analytics
• Establish engineering standards, best practices, and patterns for data ingestion, transformation, storage, and access control
• Own key technical decisions and trade-offs, and communicate them clearly to both engineering and non-technical stakeholders

Problem Synthesis & Solution Design

• Partner with security, engineering, product, and compliance teams to deeply understand complex business and security problems
• Break down ambiguous, multi-faceted challenges and translate them into actionable, well-scoped technical solutions
• Drive discovery and requirements processes — asking the right questions to surface the real problem before jumping to solutions

Execution & Delivery

• Lead and actively contribute to the design, development, and delivery of scalable data infrastructure on cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, and/or Azure)
• Build platforms that handle high‑volume security event data (logs, alerts, audit trails, telemetry) with reliability and low latency
• Ensure data quality, observability, and governance are first‑class concerns across all systems

People & Collaboration

• Mentor and grow a team of engineers — through code reviews, design discussions, and ongoing technical coaching
• Foster a culture of engineering excellence, accountability, and continuous improvement
• Act as a trusted technical advisor to cross‑functional partners, representing the team in architectural reviews and strategic planning discussions

What you’ll bring to the role:

• Experience in software engineering, with at least 2 years in a tech lead or people manager role
• Proven ability to take complex, ambiguous business problems and synthesize them into clear, elegant at‑scale technical solutions
• Demonstrated experience building data products that deliver actionable insights or guidance to end users — not just pipelines for pipelines’ sake
• Deep experience building and operating large‑scale platforms in cloud environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
• At least 7 years’ relevant experience would generally be expected to find the skills required for this role.

Preferred:

• Experience building developer‑facing security tooling or platforms that guide application teams toward better security outcomes
• Familiarity with vulnerability management data (CVEs, CVSS, EPSS) and how to apply it in prioritization models
• Experience in a security domain (Cloud Security, Platform Security, AppSec)
• Hands‑on experience with cloud‑native services
• Hands‑on experience with data engineering at scale
• Background working in regulated industries or with compliance‑driven data requirements
