Systems/Software Engineer III Cloud & On-Premise Software Development

Description

You will join the team building the company's cloud-native security management platform, which gives central control over policies, monitoring, and automation for firewalls, secure edge services, and hybrid cloud environments through one web console.

The platform also acts as the company's management portal for SASE and covers Zero Trust, Zero Touch Provisioning, threat visibility, analytics, and API-driven integrations.

The on-premises edition brings the same kind of management to the company's firewall fleet, covering policy lifecycle, monitoring, configuration, logging, and automation in a browser. It replaces the company's earlier on-premises management tool and suits organizations that must host locally.

This is a senior technical leadership role. You will shape product components with visible impact, bring fresh ideas to hard problems, and find ways to cut costs or meet customer needs not yet served.

You will be a recognized internal expert in a key technology area, lead significant project work, and join or start cross-functional efforts. You will also mentor colleagues and share knowledge across the organization.
