    About You: You have several years of experience with full-stack web development. Our application is built with Next.js/TypeScript/Tailwind on the frontend, Python/FastAPI/Postgres/Redis on the backend. You understand how to build resilient applications with LLMs: managing tool calls, prompts, cost/latency tradeoffs, etc. You can talk directly with customers, analyze usage data, and iterate based on feedback. You can make sound product decisions on your own. You have clear likes and dislikes about AI coding tools you have tried, and know what should be better. We dogfood a lot! About Us: Indent is building the platform that every software engineer begins and ends their day in. Our customers are large engineering teams who use Indent for everything from incident response to code review to data analysis. Indent is built to handle these tasks in the real world (think analyzing a 30,000 table warehouse, not vibe querying a tiny Postgres instance) with minimal setup. We are a small, engineering-focused team. We come from a background of systems and infrastructure engineering, working on things like the Swift Compiler, distributed data orchestration software, and scaled video conferencing systems. We think that rigor is an advantage in this get-rich-quick market. We are taking an ambitious approach to a massive market. At Indent, one engineer can own a product like the Incident Response Agent that outperforms entire companies solving the same problem.

    Indent 3.3company rating

    Application engineer job in San Jose, CA

    About You: You have several years of experience with full-stack web development. Our application is built with Next.js/TypeScript/Tailwind on the frontend, Python/FastAPI/Postgres/Redis on the backend. You understand how to build resilient applications with LLMs: managing tool calls, prompts, cost/latency tradeoffs, etc. You can talk directly with customers, analyze usage data, and iterate based on feedback. You can make sound product decisions on your own. You have clear likes and dislikes about AI coding tools you have tried, and know what should be better. We dogfood a lot! About Us: Indent is building the platform that every software engineer begins and ends their day in. Our customers are large engineering teams who use Indent for everything from incident response to code review to data analysis. Indent is built to handle these tasks in the real world (think analyzing a 30,000 table warehouse, not vibe querying a tiny Postgres instance) with minimal setup. We are a small, engineering-focused team. We come from a background of systems and infrastructure engineering, working on things like the Swift Compiler, distributed data orchestration software, and scaled video conferencing systems. We think that rigor is an advantage in this get-rich-quick market. We are taking an ambitious approach to a massive market. At Indent, one engineer can own a product like the Incident Response Agent that outperforms entire companies solving the same problem.

    Application engineer job in San Jose, CA

    ATTN - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY: WE CAN NOT SPONSOR NEW VISAS OR TRANSFER EXISTING VISAS. AT THIS TIME WE'RE ONLY CONSIDERING US CITIZENS OR GC HOLDERS. WE'RE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WHO HAS SIGNIFICANT APPLICATION SECURITY EXPERIENCE-SOMEONE WHO HAS DESIGNED SECURE ARCHITECTURES, IMPLEMENTED CONTROLS ACROSS THE SDLC, AND PROACTIVELY IDENTIFIED AND MITIGATED VULNERABILITIES IN LARGE-SCALE DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS. THE SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATE SHOULD ALSO HAVE A STRONG TRACK RECORD OF PARTNERING WITH ENGINEERING TEAMS TO IMPROVE OVERALL SECURITY POSTURE THROUGH ARCHITECTURAL GUIDANCE, SECURE CODING BEST PRACTICES, AND CONTINUOUS SECURITY EDUCATION. Picture a company redefining how life sciences harness data - one that turns the noise of fragmented scientific systems into the clarity that accelerates discovery, development, and ultimately, human progress. This Scientific Data Cloud pioneer has built a cloud-native ecosystem engineered specifically for the life sciences, connecting laboratory instruments, informatics systems, and analytics applications into a single, intelligent network. The result: harmonized, actionable scientific data that transforms R&D velocity and precision across discovery, development, and manufacturing. Trusted by the world's leading biopharma innovators, their open platform serves as the digital nervous system for scientific operations - empowering researchers and partners to unlock insights at unprecedented scale. Think of it as the Palantir of Life Sciences - designed not just to visualize complexity, but to ingest and process petabytes of scientific data through advanced taxonomies and ontologies that bring structure, context, and meaning to an otherwise chaotic scientific landscape. Through deep collaborations with global leaders in cloud computing and AI, this company is building the foundation for a new era of Scientific Intelligence - one where every experiment, every dataset, and every discovery is connected, contextualized, and exponentially more powerful than before. Senior & Lead Application Security Engineers We're looking for a hands-on Product Security Technical Lead to drive the design, implementation, and evolution of our security engineering program. You'll lead a team of Security Engineers focused on hardening our SaaS and data platforms by breaking things before attackers do - identifying vulnerabilities, building secure infrastructure, and integrating protection across our CI/CD pipelines. This role demands deep technical expertise across AWS, Python, and application & cloud security, along with a hacker's curiosity and a builder's discipline. Why This Role: • You'll have complete ownership of product and cloud security from architecture to execution. • You'll lead by doing - hacking, breaking, and building resilient systems. • Be part of a company where security isn't an afterthought - it's a product feature. Job Responsibilities • Own and evolve the organization's entire application security posture, with a focus on application and cloud security across all product lines. • Perform offensive and defensive security assessments - threat modeling, code review, penetration testing, and vulnerability exploitation. • Build and integrate automated security tooling (SAST, DAST, dependency scanning, IaC scanning) into CI/CD pipelines. • Develop security automation and internal tooling using Python, Bash, or Go. • Partner with Engineering, DevOps, and Infrastructure teams to ensure secure AWS architectures (VPC, IAM, KMS, GuardDuty, CloudTrail, WAF). • Oversee incident response and root cause analysis for product and infrastructure-level security events. • Define and enforce secure coding standards, and lead threat modeling sessions for critical features and services. • Continuously hunt for vulnerabilities, test assumptions, and “break things safely” to strengthen the platform. Preferred Qualifications: • Certifications such as AWS Certified Security - Specialty, OSCP, or CISSP. • Experience in SaaS, Big Data, or high-scale distributed environments. • Knowledge of MITRE ATT&CK, OWASP Top 10, and secure software design principles. Required Skills & Experience: • 8+ years of hands-on experience in Application, Cloud, or Product Security roles, with lead or staff-level responsibilities. • Deep expertise in AWS security architecture and service hardening. • Advanced programming and scripting ability in Python (Bash or Go a plus). • Proven experience with offensive security: hacking, exploit analysis, or red team operations. • Strong foundation in vulnerability management, threat modeling, and incident response. • Proficient with DevSecOps tools and modern CI/CD environments. • Familiarity with container and orchestration security (Docker, Kubernetes, EKS). Required Education • Bachelor's degree in computer science or another equivalent degree.
