Sr Software Development Engineer

Engineering ; Remote Canada | Remote Unites States

BeyondTrust is a place where you can bring your purpose to life through the work that you do, creating a safer world through our cybersecurity SaaS portfolio.

Our culture of flexibility, trust, and continual learning means you will be recognized for your growth, and for the impact you make on our success. You will be surrounded by people who challenge, support, and inspire you to be the best version of yourself.

The Role

BeyondTrust is seeking a Sr Software Development Engineer to help build the NHI Governance domain within our Pathfinder products. You will design, build, and operate the full-stack services that power the server-side loop discover, assess, and remediate non-human identities (service accounts, workload identities, secrets and keys, and AI agents) across cloud and on-premise environments. Working across the stack — from APIs, data pipelines, and platform services through to the occasional UI surface — you will own meaningful features end to end, partner closely with senior engineers, product, and design, and deliver secure, scalable, high-quality software that solves complex identity and security challenges at scale.

What You’ll Do

• Design, build, test, and operate scalable, resilient backend services, APIs, and data pipelines across the domain.
• Own features end to end — from design and implementation through production rollout, observability, and operational health.
• Contribute across the stack where needed, integrating services with front-end workflows and other platform teams.
• Participate in and help lead design discussions, making sound technical trade-offs for the work you own.
• Review functional and technical requirements to identify gaps, propose simplifications, and help scope and sequence work.
• Uphold a high-quality bar through code review, testing, and secure development practices.
• Investigate and resolve complex bugs and reliability issues across the services you own.
• Mentor less-experienced engineers and share best practices in cloud-native development.

What You’ll Bring

• Strong programming skills in one or more modern languages (C#, Go, TypeScript, Java, or similar), with solid experience designing and building APIs and microservices.
• Full-stack capability — comfortable owning backend services and able to work in a modern JavaScript/TypeScript framework when a feature calls for it, without a primary UI focus.
• Hands-on, day-to-day experience using Claude Code (or comparable agentic AI coding tools) to design, build, and review software at high velocity, with the judgment to critically review what the tools produce.
• Hands-on AWS experience building and operating production services (e.g., compute, IAM, managed data stores), with sound reliability and cost awareness.
• Understanding of CI/CD and hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation).
• Familiarity with data modeling and working with data at scale.
• Solid grasp of modern testing and observability practices in cloud environments.
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to make progress amid ambiguity.
• Good communication and collaboration skills across technical and cross-functional conversations.

Nice To Have

• Domain experience in identity security: IAM, NHI/Secrets, cloud IAM (AWS IAM, Microsoft Entra ID), OAuth/OIDC.
• Experience with event-driven architecture, graph data modeling, or analytics at scale.
• Experience building multi-tenant services consumed by other engineering teams.
• Familiarity with a modern JavaScript framework (Angular, React, or Vue with TypeScript).

Who You Are

• An engineer who takes ownership of complex work and follows it through to production.
• A pragmatic full-stack builder who goes where the problem is.
• A bar-raiser for quality who balances technical excellence with shipping.
• A collaborator who welcomes feedback, mentors others, and shares knowledge.
• A clear communicator across technical and cross-functional discussions.
