Job Details
Overview of the Role:
As a Software Engineer on the Security Software Engineering team at Salesforce, you are part of a team that builds and operates highly scalable, fault-tolerant, distributed systems to deliver cloud-scale security software services. You provide the fundamental building blocks to improve and preserve customer trust across multiple public cloud substrates and Salesforce's own network infrastructure. You architect and implement services that protect Salesforce products and infrastructure and defend against malicious attacks - all while having the unique opportunity to learn from the best industry security experts and integrate that knowledge into your software and service engineering.
Salesforce's security architecture continuously verifies and limits users to appropriate levels of access to customer data, protecting exposure of sensitive information due to human error or misconfiguration. Encryption at rest and in transit comes standard, ensuring the privacy and security of data across Salesforce and public cloud providers.
Responsibilities:
- Design, develop, and operate large-scale, fault-tolerant distributed security systems across public cloud environments.
- Architect and implement security services that protect Salesforce products and infrastructure from malicious attacks.
- Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to deliver secure, high-quality code in a fast-paced agile environment.
- Support on-call and incident response processes to ensure service reliability and availability.
Required Qualifications:
- 4+ years of experience building large-scale distributed systems in cloud environments, with deep knowledge of object-oriented programming in Java, Go, Python, C++, or C#.
- Experience with public cloud services (AWS, Google Cloud Platform, or Azure) and container orchestration tools such as Docker and Kubernetes.
- Familiarity with Scrum or other agile development methodologies, with a strong focus on code quality and secure software delivery.
- Strong knowledge of operating systems (Linux, Mac, and Windows) and experience working effectively in complex team environments.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Familiarity with endpoint security applications such as Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) or Data Loss Prevention (DLP) tools.
- Experience with Apache Airflow, Tableau, or large-scale enterprise deployments of third-party tools.
- Prior knowledge of security principles, including Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) or secrets management, is a plus but not required.
