SecurityPal is on a mission to accelerate trust on the internet. We streamline and automate the security review process for growing companies, helping them close deals faster, build buyer confidence, and stay compliant in an increasingly complex digital landscape.

We're a post–Series A startup backed by world-class investors, already profitable, and growing fast. With a global team of 200+ employees, a high-performing engineering org, and a passionate customer base, we are building the go-to enterprise trust platform for the modern internet economy.

Why This Role Matters

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer who thrives at the intersection of engineering and product thinking — someone who not only writes elegant, scalable code, but also deeply understands the “why” behind what they’re building. You’ll join a team that ships fast, owns outcomes, and works collaboratively with product and design to bring SecurityPal’s vision to life.

You’ll be working closely with engineering leadership to design and build core backend systems and APIs, as well as contribute to the evolution of our frontend user experience. Your work will have a direct and visible impact on the platform used by hundreds of global customers every day.

What You’ll Do

  • Design, develop, and deploy backend services using Python and AWS infrastructure
  • Contribute to full-stack features leveraging JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Design, and AI/ML teams to ship customer-impacting features
  • Build and maintain scalable, secure APIs that integrate with third-party services
  • Take ownership of end-to-end product development — from ideation to production release
  • Champion best practices in code quality, system design, and DevOps automation
  • Mentor junior engineers and contribute to the evolution of our engineering culture

You Might Be a Fit If You

  • Have 5+ years of experience in software development with a focus on backend or full-stack systems
  • Are fluent in Python, AWS services (Lambda, ECS, S3, etc.), and JavaScript/TypeScript
  • Are product-minded — you think about customer value and user experience as much as technical execution
  • Thrive in ambiguous, fast-moving startup environments where autonomy and clarity coexist
  • Have a strong understanding of modern architectures (microservices, event-driven systems, CI/CD pipelines)
  • Care about building reliable, maintainable systems that scale
  • Enjoy working collaboratively across time zones and disciplines

Compensation & Benefits

  • Base salary: $170,000–$200,000
  • Meaningful equity package
  • Benefits
  • PTO
  • Quarterly trips to our Nepal office (optional but encouraged!)

What’s Next

We move fast for the right person. If you’re excited about solving hard problems, building high-impact systems, and working alongside exceptional engineers — we want to meet you.
