EngineeringBackend Developer

As a Python Backend Engineer, you will help build an AI-native cybersecurity platform that enables organizations to deploy, operate, and manage fleets of intelligent AI agents. You will design and develop scalable backend systems supporting security detection, investigation, and AI-assisted resolution. Working within a multidisciplinary engineering team, you will contribute to the platform's agent control infrastructure, API services, and data processing capabilities. You will leverage advanced AI models and agent technologies to solve complex engineering challenges and accelerate software development. The role offers significant autonomy, with end-to-end ownership of projects and direct interaction with customers. You will join a remote-first environment that values accountability, technical excellence, collaboration, and continuous innovation.

In this role, you will take ownership of backend engineering projects, delivering reliable and scalable solutions that address real customer needs. Your main responsibilities will include:

  • Build and develop the Agent Control Plane, enabling customers to deploy, operate, and manage their own fleets of AI agents.

  • Design, develop, and maintain Python backend services using frameworks such as FastAPI and Flask to support security detection, investigation, and AI-assisted resolution.

  • Develop the AI agent layer, including tool-calling capabilities, Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations, and human approval mechanisms before executing actions on live systems.

  • Design, model, and query large-scale security datasets using ClickHouse while ensuring strict tenant isolation.

  • Take end-to-end ownership of assigned projects, from understanding customer challenges and defining technical solutions to implementation and delivery.

  • Engage directly with customers to understand their requirements, address technical issues, and ensure successful outcomes.

  • Independently manage priorities and deliver high-impact engineering work while maintaining effective communication with the wider team.

  • Leverage AI agents and advanced language models to explore unfamiliar technologies, navigate existing codebases, and accelerate development.

  • Manage two major engineering projects simultaneously while contributing to smaller AI-driven initiatives.

  • Maintain high standards of code quality, testing, system reliability, and observability.

  • Requirements

  • Growth-oriented mindset, openness to constructive feedback, and willingness to revisit or improve existing solutions when necessary.

  • Strong sense of accountability, reliability, and attention to detail, with a proactive approach to communicating challenges and delivering commitments.

  • Ability to collaborate effectively with colleagues rather than working in isolation.

  • Availability to work remotely during UK business hours.

  • Ability to start as soon as possible.

  • Nice-to-have qualifications:

  • Experience developing backend applications with FastAPI or Flask.

  • Familiarity with ClickHouse or other columnar analytics databases.

  • Production experience with AI agent frameworks, LLM tool calling, Model Context Protocol (MCP), or Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG).

  • Experience building or maintaining multi-tenant Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platforms.

  • Background in cybersecurity, detection engineering, or large-scale event processing.

  • Additional programming experience with C++ or TypeScript.
