About the opportunity
We are seeking a passionate Senior Software Engineer to play a critical role in designing, developing, and maintaining the cutting-edge technology that powers Veza. In this role, you will work closely with cross-functional teams to build robust, scalable, and secure solutions that meet the evolving needs of our customers. This is an exciting opportunity to make a significant impact in a high-growth startup and contribute to its continued success.
You will:
• Design, develop, and maintain backend services, ensuring high performance, scalability, and reliability.
• Collaborate with product managers, other software engineers, UX Designers and security experts to build product features that meet business objectives and security standards.
• Implement logging, monitoring, and auditing capabilities to ensure visibility and compliance with regulatory requirements.
• Continuously optimize and improve the performance, security, and scalability of the platform through code reviews, testing, and refactoring.
• Stay current with industry trends and emerging technologies and leverage them to drive innovation and improve our platform.
• 5+ years of developer experience
• Strong experience in backend programming languages (e.g., Java, Go, C++, Rust, Python, or similar).
• Background in enterprise-grade distributed systems
• Strong understanding and experience with AI development tools
• A deep understanding of good software design principles combined with a practical mindset.
• Excellent problem-solving skills, ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced environment and deliver high-quality solutions efficiently.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills
• Self-driven and hands-on developers who enjoy writing code, solving problems, and building systems—more doers than talkers.
• Proven experience in designing and implementing RESTful APIs and microservices architectures.
• Background in IGA industry is a big plus
• Solid understanding of database(e.g., relational db) and caching mechanisms
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.

Veza is the pioneer in identity security, purpose-built to answer the fundamental question enterprises face: who can and should take what action on what data. Veza's Access Graph platform maps an organization's entire identity ecosystem across users, groups, roles, policies, permissions, and resources—providing deep visibility and control over human, non-human, and agentic identities across SaaS, cloud, on-prem, and custom applications. With over 30 billion access permissions under management, global enterprises including Blackstone, Expedia, and Wynn Resorts trust Veza to manage privileged access monitoring, non-human identity security, access entitlement management, and next-generation identity governance.
Founded in 2020 and headquartered in Redwood City, California, Veza is now part of the ServiceNow family, with the acquisition closing in March 2026. The combination brings together Veza's AI-native Access Graph with ServiceNow's AI Control Tower and agentic workflows, enabling organizations to enforce end-to-end identity security rooted in the principle of least privilege across applications, data, cloud environments, and AI agents. For engineers joining Veza today, this means the scale and resources of an enterprise platform company, with the product velocity and mission-driven focus of a security innovator at a pivotal moment in the industry.
