Senior Software Engineer, ISPM - India

All roles at JumpCloud are Remote unless otherwise specified in the Job Description.

About JumpCloud
JumpCloud® delivers a unified open directory platform that makes it easy to securely manage identities, devices, and access across your organization. With JumpCloud, IT teams and MSPs enable users to work securely from anywhere and manage their Windows, Apple, Linux, and Android devices from a single platform. JumpCloud is IT Simplified.

The Problem Statement: The Invisible Identity Perimeter:
Modern enterprises no longer have a physical perimeter; identity is the new boundary. However, this boundary is currently fragmented, opaque, and highly volatile. IT Admins today are drowning in "Identity Debt"—stale accounts, over-privileged permissions, and hidden misconfigurations that remain invisible until they are exploited.

The industry is reactive. At JumpCloud, we believe security should be proactive. The challenge is to build a platform that doesn't just manage identities but actively audits, predicts, and remediates risks across millions of objects in real-time. We need to turn "Trust Nothing, Verify Everything" from a slogan into a high-scale, event-driven reality

The Opportunity: Founding the ISPM Platform:
As a Senior Software Engineer for our newly formed Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) team, you will play a foundational role in building a proactive, AI-driven security discipline from the ground up. You are a master of your craft in Go, capable of navigating complex event-driven architectures and ensuring our stream-processing pipelines are both resilient and performant.

You will own the execution of critical ISPM workstreams, turning high-level designs into robust, production-ready code while mentoring mid-level engineers on best practices.

What you’ll be doing::
• Technical Leadership & Architecture: Lead the high-level architecture and low-level design of new Go microservices. You will break down complex requirements, mentor other engineers, and collaborate with senior technical leaders to manage technical debt and feature detailing.

• Build and Launch Foundational ISPM Services: Within the first 6–12 months, design, code, test, and deploy the initial full-stack services for the new ISPM product to the production environment, ensuring high performance and stability.

• Deliver Core Security Features: Collaborate closely with Product and UX teams to define and deliver the first iterations of features that identify misconfigurations, over-privileged accounts, and stale identities.

• Establish Operational Excellence: Take ownership of the deployment lifecycle by establishing robust CI/CD pipelines and comprehensive health monitoring/telemetry strategies for the newly built services.

• Prepare the Runway for ML: Utilise Machine learning concepts to harness the inhouse data to build solutions for IT Admins.

• Strategy & Collaboration: Partner with the Platform Engineering team to define data contracts. You will help shape the future of our Identity Management services roadmap by participating in planning conversations with Product Managers

We’re looking for::
•
6-8+ years of backend software development experience.

•
Expert Proficiency in Go (Golang): You understand concurrency patterns, memory management, and how to build services that scale.

•
Event-Driven Architecture: Proven experience building systems that consume and produce messages via Kafka, Kinesis, or SQS.

•
Stream Processing: Experience with Apache Flink or Spark Streaming.

•
Database Fluency: Experience modeling data in both Relational (Postgres) and NoSQL (Redis/DynamoDB) stores.

•
Cloud Native: Deep experience with AWS services (Lambda, ECS/EKS) and Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform).

•
ML Infrastructure Interest: You don't need to be a Data Scientist, but you have a working interest in MLOps or Model Serving. You are excited about building the "pipes" that put ML models into production.

•
Distributed Systems Expertise: building scalable, fault tolerant systems handling large data sets

Bonus Points::
• Prior experience with Security/Risk Posture Management tools.

• SOC / SIEM Empathy: Experience building tools for Security Operations Centers. You understand concepts like "False Positive Fatigue," "Triage," and "Incident Context."

• Security & Identity: Exposure to authentication standards (OAuth, OIDC, SAML) or experience building logic for Fraud/Risk engines.

• Integrations: Experience integrating with third-party threat feeds (e.g., GeoIP, IP Reputation)
