Your Career
ShiftLeft is building the cloud security platform for developers (CAS). Our platform empowers teams to find, fix, and prevent security risks in application code and infrastructure as code through automation and security-as-code principles. We're looking for a skilled Senior Backend Engineer to join our team and contribute to our Cortex Cloud platform.
As a Senior Backend Engineer, you'll have a high-impact role in shaping the future of our code security products. Beyond building robust and scalable backend features, you'll help drive performance, reliability, and innovation across our systems. Our team leads the way in owning both the department’s core infrastructure and Developer Experience (DevEx), empowering the entire engineering organization with powerful internal platforms and tooling.

The Team
Our engineering team is at the core of our products - connected directly to the mission of preventing cyberattacks. We are constantly innovating - challenging the way we, and the industry, think about cybersecurity. Our engineers don't shy away from building products to solve problems no one has pursued before.
We define the industry, instead of waiting for directions. We need individuals who feel comfortable in ambiguity, excited by the prospect of a challenge, and empowered by the unknown risks facing our everyday lives that are only enabled by a secure digital environment.
Our Commitment
We’re problem solvers that take risks and challenge cybersecurity’s status quo. It’s simple: we can’t accomplish our mission without diverse teams innovating, together.
