Senior Backend Engineer – Core Engineering

About Cyera  Come join the company building the security operating model for the age of AI. AI has changed how data is used — and security must change with it. Cyera's mission is to empower businesses to accelerate AI Adoption by defining a holistic approach to securing AI - from data to access to model. Instead of perimeter controls and static policies, Cyera provides a unified control plane that understands relationships between data, access, and behaviors across humans, systems, and AI. Backed by the world’s leading investors and working with a large and growing list of Fortune 1000 companies, we are looking for world-class talent to join us as we usher in the new era of data and AI security.  About The Team  We’re looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join Cyera’s CORE Engineering teams — a small, senior group responsible for the internal foundations on which the entire product is built. This is a high-impact, cross-organization role. Everything you build is used by 200+ engineers and affects every service in production: microservice frameworks, common services, databases, inter-service and cross-cluster communication, build and CI pipelines, deployment flows, and release processes — all at high scale, high speed, and production grade. The scope, priorities, and scale challenges evolve constantly as Cyera grows. You’ll be expected to adapt quickly, make pragmatic technical decisions, and design systems that can evolve without slowing the organization down. This role is ideal for a senior engineer who enjoys working close to the foundations, collaborating broadly, and owning complex systems in fast-changing environments.
