Full Job Description

📋 Description

• Build full-stack features across Google Drive and OAuth surfaces of Material Security’s Cloud Office Security product, owning end-to-end development from design to production.
• Design and ship agentic workflows powered by LLMs to automate detection, investigation, and remediation of security risks within customer Google Workspace environments.
• Integrate deeply with Google Workspace APIs to create reliable, scalable data pipelines that handle real-world edge cases including rate limits, retries, idempotency, and inconsistent data formats.
• Collaborate directly with product and design teams to prioritize and ship high-impact features that enhance customer security outcomes and user experience.
• Work across both backend and frontend systems, contributing effectively to TypeScript/React interfaces when necessary, without requiring deep frontend specialization.
• Partner with adjacent product and platform engineering teams to expose Cloud Office Security capabilities across the broader Material Security product ecosystem.
• Maintain high code quality with minimal oversight, taking ownership of features through deployment, monitoring, and long-term operational reliability.
• Actively participate in code reviews, mentor junior engineers, and help cultivate a strong, collaborative engineering culture across a remote-first team.
• Engage with LLM-based agent systems in production, including designing prompts, selecting and integrating tools, and establishing evaluation criteria to ensure correctness and trustworthiness.
• Navigate the complexities of third-party API integrations at scale, making pragmatic trade-offs between feature velocity, system reliability, and security constraints.
• Take initiative to identify and solve critical security problems in customer environments, prioritizing actions that deliver measurable risk reduction.
• Communicate technical trade-offs clearly to non-engineering stakeholders, balancing product goals with system integrity and operational safety.
• Contribute to the evolution of the Cloud Office Security product roadmap by proposing innovations based on real-world customer behavior and threat patterns.
• Stay engaged with production systems post-launch, responding to incidents, refining automations, and improving agent performance based on live data and feedback.
• Embrace ambiguity in early-stage product development, shaping technical direction with limited precedent while maintaining rigorous engineering standards.
• Prioritize user-centered design in security tooling, ensuring that complex risk mitigation workflows remain intuitive and actionable for security teams.
• Balance speed of delivery with robustness, avoiding technical debt while shipping polished, production-ready features on a rapid cycle.
• Represent Material Security’s engineering values through humility, curiosity, and a relentless focus on customer impact over personal contribution.

🎯 Requirements

• Strong backend and systems engineering skills with experience building and operating systems that integrate with third-party APIs at scale, including handling rate limits, retries, idempotency, and messy data.
• Full-stack comfort: ability to contribute effectively to frontend development (TypeScript/React) alongside backend work, with capacity to ship end-to-end features.
• Experience or strong interest in building LLM-powered agentic workflows in production, including prompt design, tool selection, and evaluation methodologies.
• Technical maturity and ownership: ability to write high-quality code independently, assess technical risks, and stay accountable through production rollout and beyond.
• Product sense: ability to make thoughtful UX trade-offs in collaboration with design teams while prioritizing customer outcomes and security effectiveness.
• Attitude: smart, hard-working, humble, and unafraid to take initiative with minimal guidance; team-first mindset with willingness to lead.

• Remote-first workplace with optional office in San Francisco, California.
