About The Position

About Semgrep Our mission is to make world-class software security available to everyone. This means building program analysis tools that are open source, easy to use, powerful, and fast. It also means building a team with security expertise and a passion for great developer experiences. Most of all, it means working with honesty and respect in a diverse community of dreamers and builders. We’ve redefined static analysis tooling by committing to all of these, and turned our project, Semgrep, into an essential safeguard for code at Snowflake, Dropbox, and more. About the role Semgrep’s Infrastructure team is responsible for the cloud infrastructure that underpins many of Semgrep’s internal and external applications, including our flagship products Semgrep Code and Semgrep Supply Chain. Our mission is to enable Semgrep’ers to effectively and confidently build, run, and manage their systems. We do this by providing a tightly integrated platform for going “from code to cloud” including CI/CD systems, Kubernetes on AWS cloud environments, and tools for operating software in production. You’ll learn about the application-security space, collaborate with other engineers on the Infrastructure team to create a robust platform, and build distributed systems that are secure, reliable, and performant. Through Semgrep’s culture of transparency, you’ll see and influence the decisions that make a startup successful. Your decisions and work will be key to making Semgrep a world-leading static-analysis project, giving you lasting influence not only at Semgrep, but in the world’s developer community.
