Intermediate Backend Engineer - Code Security

Bangalore, India
Our take: The real work here is building and measuring code-security analyzers in Go and Rust, blending deterministic rules with AI reasoning to help developers find and fix vulnerabilities.
If you like writing careful systems code in Go or Rust and the puzzle of catching real security flaws without crying wolf, this is work with a clear point: you are helping developers ship safer software. You will build parsers and analyzers that blend deterministic rules with AI reasoning, then measure honestly how well they actually work against known vulnerabilities. It suits someone who runs their own day in a quiet async remote team, enjoys learning across languages and the software supply chain, and takes quiet pride in code that holds up.
