Full job description

Every day, millions of packages, containers, dependencies, and binaries move through software delivery pipelines. Most organisations have limited visibility into where they came from, whether they're secure, or whether they should be allowed into production.

You'll help build the systems that answer those questions.

  • Think large-scale security intelligence pipelines ingesting and correlating vulnerability, provenance, and trust data from across the software ecosystem.

  • Think policy engines capable of making real-time decisions on millions of software artifacts.

  • Think designing the architecture behind software trust, compliance, and governance for engineering organisations operating at enterprise scale.

This is a role for engineers who enjoy operating at the intersection of distributed systems, platform engineering, security, and data infrastructure. You'll influence technical strategy across the organisation, shape foundational architecture, and work on problems where there isn't an accepted playbook yet.

  • The technology is interesting.

  • The scale is real.

  • But the opportunity is bigger than either.

The software industry is moving toward a future where every artifact, package, container, AI-generated component, and dependency needs to be verified, governed, and trusted before it reaches production.

You'll help build the infrastructure that makes that possible. If you're a Principal Engineer who wants to work on a problem that will matter even more five years from now than it does today, let's talk.

Build the infrastructure that decides what software the world can trust.
