Job description

Aqua Security enables enterprises to secure their container-based and cloud-native applications from development to production, accelerating container adoption and bridging the gap between DevOps and IT security. We are building a state-of-the-art security platform for large enterprises in the exciting and innovative new field of software containers. Our systems are deployed on thousands of customer servers around the world. A distributed system to watch over distributed systems!

• We are looking for a talented Senior Software Engineer to join our server team, in charge of developing Aqua's management console - a multi-component system with many responsibilities, performing various background jobs and large-scale data processing; supplying REST APIs, a web based UI and more.
• In this role, you will take part in further development of our management console, writing features across the entire application stack: SQL queries, business logic, background processes, REST APIs and web-based user interfaces.
• At Aqua, you will not be writing code for in-house applications. You will be writing code for large technology companies, banks, government agencies and multi-national chains.
• Our product is composed of multiple components, mostly installed on-premise in our customer's cloud environments, but also has SaaS components, plugins for various CI/CD systems and many more. Almost everything runs inside containers. It is written in Go - an exciting new language from Google, and heavily depends on free software/open source components. Our web UI is currently written in VueJS. We are primarily a Linux company, but our software also supports Windows and Mac.

Working from Aqua Hyderabad office a minimum of 3 days per week (Mon,Tues,Thu)

Requirements

• Track record of delivering various features in large-scale applications or core systems with 5+ years of experience.
• Experience writing multi-component systems or micro-services, with architectures requiring efficient inter-application communication.
• Experience writing in a high-level language such as Go, Node, Java etc.. If you're already writing Go & Node JS , or spent a weekend debugging the worse memory leak ever, that's a big plus.
• Experience in writing code with vue.js or react.js and typescript.
• Experience writing APIs (either RESTful or not) and RPCs. If you've broken backwards compatibility for your customers once, and dealt with the fallout, we want you (to deal with the fallout again).
• Experience with RDBMS systems (e.g. MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, SQLite) and/or NoSQL, databases (e.g. MongoDB, Redis, Cassandra, Couchbase). if you know GraphDB, it is a bonus. If you've written queries with more than two joins, or have a strong opinion of why an integer is better as a primary key (or maybe a UUID), we'd like to hear from you.
• Experience with any one of the Cloud providers such as AWS is a must
• Experience in provisioning infrastructure using IaC tools like Terraform/CloudFormation is a plus
• Experience In cloud Development such as Serverless - Lambda functions - SNS, SQS, EC2, S3 bucket (Must)
• Linux experience is a must and if you have experience with kafka it is a plus.
• Experience with Docker is must. Kubernetes and OpenShift is a plus. If you can name one way in which a container is different than a regular process, you're golden.

AI & GenAI Expertise

• Practical, high-impact experience using GenAI development tools (Cursor, GitHub Copilot, etc.) to boost developer productivity, accelerate code reviews, support architectural decisions, and improve engineering workflows.
• Familiarity with AI-supported observability, predictive alerting, data analysis and intelligent root-cause analysis.
• Experience integrating AI/ML-assisted tooling into design, development, test automation, CI/CD, or operational pipelines is a strong plus.
