This position is on the team building StrongDM, now part of Delinea—the universal access management platform that secures and audits access to databases, servers, Kubernetes clusters, and web applications. As a Software Engineer, you will bring solid working knowledge of distributed systems and backend development in Go to StrongDM’s proxy and control-plane platform, working independently to devise solutions for problems of diverse scope while your work is reviewed at key milestones.

What You’ll Do:
Design, build, and maintain highly concurrent, distributed backend services in Go (Golang) that power StrongDM’s proxy data plane (gateways and relays) and control-plane platform.
Apply sound judgment to evaluate tradeoffs and adapt existing approaches when working through ambiguous or loosely defined technical problems.
Collaborate with engineers, product managers, and DevOps/SRE partners to translate requirements into working, well-tested code.
Contribute to the secure handling of network protocols and cryptographic systems (TLS/mTLS, credential brokering, key management) within your area of ownership.
Participate in code and design reviews, holding a high bar for performance, security, and maintainability.
Investigate and resolve technical issues in distributed, multi-cloud production environments, collaborating with teammates on the most complex or ambiguous cases.
What You’ll Need:
Bachelor’s degree in computer science, software engineering, or a related technical discipline, plus 3+ years of related experience.
Working knowledge of Go (Golang), distributed systems, and backend/network service development.
Experience evaluating tradeoffs and adapting existing approaches to resolve technical issues based on limited information or precedent.
Familiarity with API design (gRPC/Protobuf and/or RESTful APIs) and core distributed systems concepts.
Experience with AWS (or another major cloud provider) and cloud-native deployment models.
We’d Love to See:
Experience with more than one major cloud platform (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
Exposure to CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform.
Familiarity with secure protocols, mTLS/PKI, or secrets management tools (e.g., HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, Azure Key Vault).
Exposure to proxying database, SSH/RDP, Kubernetes, or HTTP traffic.
Basic understanding of Zero Trust architecture, just-in-time access models, or policy-as-code (e.g., Cedar).
