Dragos is on a relentless mission to defend industrial organizations that provide us with the necessities of modern civilization; running water, functioning electricity, and safe industrial working environments. As the market leader in ICS/OT Cybersecurity, we are dedicated to arming our customers with best-in-class technology, threat intelligence, and services to protect their systems as effectively and efficiently as possible. We’re a remote-first culture with operations in North America, Europe, the Middle East, and APAC. We’re looking for mission-oriented teammates who embody our core values of authenticity, transparency, and trust. Are you ready to make a difference? Come join a mission that can save the world!

About the Role:

Dragos is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join our team in building the leading OT Security Platform. We work in a matrix-style engineering organization which means in this role, you will be part of our Backend Community. To be successful at Dragos, you will need to:

  • Be passionate about your craft, minding the details while working quickly.
  • Have a strong product sense and care deeply about the customers and problems we are solving.
  • Be self-directed with a strong work ethic and ability to operate autonomously.
  • Have excellent communication skills for remote collaboration, working well across engineering disciplines.
At Dragos, we don’t hire engineers whose only mission in life is to write code. We are looking for backend engineers who yearn to contribute to more than just a code base and who are willing to stretch themselves to accomplish the mission

Responsibilities:

Our backend community is the heartbeat of the Dragos Platform, playing a pivotal role in the success of our customers’ ability to secure their OT environments.

As a backend engineer you will:

  • Design and implement robust, testable, high-performance systems and tools in Rust.
  • Optimize existing software architectures to enhance speed and efficiency.
  • Actively participate in all phases of the development lifecycle, including debugging and optimization, ensuring and elevating software quality.
  • Stay informed about the latest advancements in Rust programming, security, and software design principles, helping to foster an environment of continuous learning and improvement.
  • Give and receive peer feedback on a normal cadence as part of our review cycle

Minimum Qualifications:

  • 5+ years of experience developing backend systems in a fast paced, high
    performance team environment
  • 3+ years of experience in relational databases such as Postgres
  • 3+ years of experience with NoSQL databases such as Elasticsearch
  • 3+ years of experience working in a microservices architecture
  • Solid understanding of Rust
  • Experience integrating with third party devices and data providers
  • Experience incorporating AI tools, models, or services into development
    workflows

Additional Qualifications that Will Help You Succeed:

  • Experience building and operating distributed systems at scale with a focus on reliability
  • Familiarity with Kubernetes and cloud‑native architectures
  • Experience with containerization (Docker)
  • Strong understanding of observability tooling (Prometheus, Grafana)
  • Experience building CI/CD pipelines and working with IaC tools (Terraform)
  • Experience building information security–focused products or applying secure coding practices
  • Experience with Kotlin, Go, or Python in production environments
  • Experience mentoring team members or leading technical initiatives
Even if you don’t think you meet all the qualifications, we encourage you to apply. We are always on the lookout for good product engineers and even if this role isn’t a good fit, we may have other opportunities for you to explore

Compensation:

    • Salary: $165,000
    • Competitive Equity Package
    • Comprehensive Benefits Plan
