The engineering department is key to the success of GitGuardian. The main challenges we are solving include: scanning various data streams at scale to find secrets in them (scan >10M code patches, messages or documents every day), developing our scout component that is deployed on our customers’ infrastructure to securely collect and map non-human identities, integrate ML models and capabilities in our product with an elegant UX.
We are looking for a talented software engineer to reinforce our 50+ engineers department and build the best secret security platform in the world. In particular, we are shifting some critical components such as the secret detection engine to Rust to be able to scan more data efficiently (like application logs or ftp servers).
Your main mission will be to:
Write code on a day to day basis to keep our secret detection engine ahead of competition.
Own the delivery of some projects or features with your team. You collaborate with your PM and other engineers to come up with efficient and resilient implementations.
Be a cornerstone of GitGuardian’s shift to Rust by driving changes and ramp-up of team members
Help to level up the overall engineering department’s by reviewing your peer’s code, mentoring more junior developers, and pushing for code quality.
Be involved in transverse discussions for engineering: this can be participating in technical design committees that may impact your team’s perimeter, be involved in cross team discussions around our stack and tech decisions.
Technical environment
Backend: Python with Django and Celery, with a growing focus on Rust for critical parts.
DB: PostgreSQL, Redis, Elasticsearch
Frontend: React / Typescript
Deployment: Kubernetes, AWS
