We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Data Team—the group responsible for building the systems that power Brinqa’s core platform.

You’ll work on high-scale data systems that ingest, transform, and serve massive volumes of security and IT data. This is a hands-on role where you’ll own meaningful parts of the system, contribute to architecture decisions, and ship production-grade code that directly impacts enterprise customers.

If you enjoy solving complex data problems, working across the stack, and building systems that operate at scale, this role is for you.

What You’ll Work On

  • Build and evolve high-throughput data pipelines (real-time and batch)
  • Design systems for large-scale ingestion, transformation, and enrichment
  • Develop APIs that expose data for advanced analytics and product features
  • Contribute to distributed storage and compute architecture
  • Ensure systems are scalable, reliable, and performant at enterprise scale

What You’ll Own

  • End-to-end delivery of features within the data platform
  • Technical design decisions and trade-offs across data, compute, and storage layers
  • Writing clean, testable, production-quality code
  • Driving improvements in performance, scalability, and system reliability

How You’ll Work

  • Collaborate closely with principal engineers and engineering leadership
  • Participate in design discussions and influence technical direction
  • Support and mentor other engineers through code reviews and knowledge sharing
  • Contribute to engineering standards, documentation, and best practices

AI-Driven Engineering

We actively use AI-assisted development tools to improve engineering velocity and quality. You’ll be expected to: - Use AI tools to accelerate development and problem-solving - Contribute to evolving best practices around AI-assisted workflows - Balance speed with quality through thoughtful application of these tools

What We’re Looking For

  • 4–6 years of software engineering experience
  • Experience building data-intensive or enterprise SaaS systems
  • Strong proficiency in one or more: Java, Python, TypeScript
  • Experience working with cloud platforms (GCP preferred; AWS/Azure a plus)
  • Ability to work across the stack and adapt as needed
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills

Nice to Have

  • Experience with data pipelines, ingestion systems, or analytics platforms
  • Familiarity with distributed databases (e.g., Postgres, Yugabyte)
  • Experience with streaming or event-driven architectures
  • Exposure to multi-cloud environments
  • Experience using AI tools in development workflows

Impact & Growth

  • Work on systems that operate at enterprise scale
  • Help shape the evolution of Brinqa’s data platform
  • Grow into deeper ownership and technical leadership
  • Gain experience in multi-cloud and AI-augmented engineering practices

HERE’S A LITTLE MORE ABOUT US

Brinqa was founded in 2008 by cybersecurity and technology veterans that witnessed first-hand the significant amount of time and people it took a company to manage the various tools and resources to protect the business from the ever evolving and changing world of cybersecurity.

Building a cybersecurity platform that connects all of the relevant IT, security, and business data resources to create a common data view with actionable insights would give companies a resource that would allow them to respond faster, smarter and more efficiently.

In June 2021, with a solid and effective product benefiting and significantly impacting Fortune 50 companies, Brinqa received its first and only institutionalized funding with Insight Partners. Investing $110M and a minority position in the business, Insight Partners provided Brinqa a way to provide their cybersecurity platform product to more enterprise companies by building their employee base with expertise in Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, Professional Services and People.

It is an exciting time of growth and for individuals to make an immediate and lasting impact on the company and its market

View company profile

At Brinqa, we are at the forefront of revolutionizing how enterprises manage and mitigate cyber risk. Through our groundbreaking Unified Exposure Management platform, we are fundamentally transforming the landscape of cybersecurity. Our innovative approach empowers security teams to gain unprecedented clarity and control over their complex attack surfaces by correlating technology and business data. This allows for a holistic understanding of vulnerabilities, moving beyond simple detection to a sophisticated, risk-based strategy. We started with a singular mission: to redefine vulnerability management for modern enterprises, especially as they navigate the complexities of cloud, containers, IoT, and DevOps. Our platform brings order to the chaos of expanding attack surfaces across infrastructure, cloud, and applications, enabling security leaders to unify their efforts and achieve measurable risk reduction.

Our technological innovation is centered around the Cyber Risk Graph, a powerful knowledge-driven engine that unifies disparate security findings with critical business and threat intelligence. This proprietary technology allows organizations to consistently prioritize, remediate, and report on risk from a single, cohesive platform. By leveraging a graph database, specifically Neo4j, we re-architected our platform to handle the dynamic and interconnected nature of modern enterprise ecosystems. This enables lightning-fast correlations across vast and complex datasets, a feat unattainable with traditional relational databases. The Brinqa platform is designed for enterprise scale, processing millions of security datasets in real-time to support advanced risk analytics and pave the way for AI-driven applications. We empower the world's largest enterprises to move from a reactive to a proactive cybersecurity posture, turning vulnerability overload into actionable, business-aligned risk clarity and ensuring they can protect what matters most.
