Backend Engineer, Secure: Dynamic Analysis 🔥


This Backend Engineer [1] or Senior Backend Engineer position for our Dynamic Analysis group [2] is 100% remote.

It’s an exciting time to join our team. We're the world’s largest all-remote company, and we've been intentionally building our culture this way from the start. With more than 1,200 team members in 65+ countries, GitLab is a place where you can contribute from almost anywhere. We are an ambitious, productive team that embraces a set of shared ​values [3]​ in everything we do.

As a Backend Engineer in our Dynamic Analysis [4] group, you'll play a key role in maturing [5] our browser-based DAST and API Security offerings. Your work will enable Development and Security teams to collaborate more efficiently by enabling them to better understand security risks which could be exploited in the applications they create.

You'll need to be an engineer who's comfortable working in Go. You will also need to be comfortable picking up other programming languages such as Ruby (mostly Ruby on Rails), Python, or C#.

The culture [6] here at GitLab is something we’re incredibly proud of. Some of the benefits [7] you’ll be entitled to vary by the region or country you’re in. However, all GitLab team members are fully remote and receive a 'no ask, must tell' paid-time-off policy, where we don’t count the number of days you take off annually -- instead, we focus on your results. You can work the hours you choose, enabled by our asynchronous approach to communication [8]. You can also expect stock options and a competitive salary. Our compensation calculator will be shared with selected candidates before any interview.

Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging [9] (DIB) are fundamental to the success of GitLab. We want to infuse DIB in every way possible and in all that we do. We strive to create a transparent environment where all team members around the world feel that their voices are heard and welcomed. We also aim to be a place where people can show up as their full selves each day and contribute their best. With more than 100,000 organizations using GitLab, our goal is to have a team that is representative of our users.

What you'll do in this role: 

  • Play a key role in improving the maturity of our browser-based DAST and API Security tools.

  • Work across a range of languages and frameworks including Go, Ruby on Rails, Python, C#, and others as needed.

  • Solve large and complex technical problems, such as building a high performance web application spider, creating an interface enabling users to configure and manage web application scans, or writing rules to detect latent security risks.

  • Help to define and improve our internal standards for style, maintainability, and best practices for a high-scale web environment. Maintain and advocate for these standards through code review.

  • Represent GitLab and its values in public communication around broader initiatives, specific projects, and community contributions.

  • Confidently ship moderately sized features and improvements with minimal guidance and support from other team members.

  • Collaborate with the team on larger projects.

You should apply if you bring:

  • Significant professional experience with Go.

  • Desire to grow your skills in Ruby on Rails, C#, or Python.

  • Proficiency in the English language, both written and verbal, sufficient for success in a remote and largely asynchronous work environment.

  • Demonstrated capacity to clearly and concisely communicate about complex technical, architectural, and/or organizational problems and propose thorough iterative solutions.

  • Experience with performance and optimization problems and a demonstrated ability to both diagnose and prevent these problems.

  • Comfort working in a highly agile, intensely iterative software development process.

  • Demonstrated ability to onboard and integrate with an organization long-term.

  • Positive and solution-oriented mindset.

  • Effective communication skills: Regularly achieve consensus with peers, and clear status updates.

  • An inclination towards communication, inclusion, and visibility.

  • Experience owning a project from concept to production, including proposal, discussion, and execution.

  • Self-motivated and self-managing, with strong organizational skills.

  • Demonstrated ability to work closely with other parts of the organization.

  • Share our values, and work in accordance with those values.

Also, we know it’s tough, but please try to avoid the ​​confidence gap​.​​ You don’t have to match all the listed requirements exactly to be considered for this role.
