As a Senior or Principal Software Engineer in Cortex Cloud, you will contribute to the development and scaling of cloud-native security solutions for enterprise organizations. This role involves working within an established team to evolve a high-traffic product, with a focus on refining architecture, optimizing the technology stack, and maintaining engineering standards.
Your responsibilities include writing reliable code, influencing product direction, and designing distributed systems. You will be expected to make technical decisions that impact the long-term stability and performance of cloud workload protection services.
AI Integration & Engineering Workflow
A core component of our development process is the use of AI. Rather than basic code completion, we integrate AI assistants as functional components of our workflow. Our team utilizes a multi-agent AI system (IDEX/ProDex) that assists across the development lifecycle: from planning and architecture to code analysis and security reviews.
In this role, you will:
Work with AI Tools:Utilize platforms such asGemini, Claude, and Cursorfor tasks beyond code generation, including root-cause analysis, system design reviews, and architectural assessment.
Develop AI-Augmented Workflows:Help refine how AI is integrated into the SDLC, including the orchestration of agents and the development of internal tools that extend AI capabilities across our codebase.
Maintain Quality Standards:While AI assists in increasing velocity, you are responsible for the technical output. This includes critical review of all generated code and ensuring that AI-assisted work aligns with our architectural requirements and security benchmarks.
Interact with Specialized Agents:Coordinate with AI agents (Product, Architecture, Security) that operate on shared context to assist in managing complex engineering tasks.
We are looking for engineers who are interested in leveraging AI as a technical tool to manage complexity and who want to contribute to the practical application of human-AI collaboration in a cloud environment.

As a Senior Software Engineer on the Cortex Platform Application team, you will be a hands-on technical leader responsible for designing, building, and operating critical backend platform services used across Cortex. This role is for an engineer who can combine deep platform/backend expertise with strong ownership, practical execution, and cross-team influence. You will help build scalable and reliable services, guide technical decisions, improve engineering methods, mentor engineers, and raise the quality of how the team designs, ships, documents, tests, and operates its systems. The team owns a broad set of platform capabilities, including areas such as application configuration, dashboards and reporting infrastructure, metrics, multi-tenant and MSSP infrastructure, log forwarding, notifications, auditing, access and permission engines, filtering and querying infrastructure, and other shared application platform domains.
