[Job Radar](https://jobradar.live/) / [Jobs](https://jobradar.live/ilanlar) / Senior Software Engineer Active On-site Denver, CO Posted · 26.09.2026 LinkedIn Jobs US # Senior Software Engineer CloudBees Description Job Title: Senior Software Engineer Job Type : Full-time Location: Hybrid • Denver, CO (3 days on-site per week) About CloudBees CloudBees helps organizations build, run, and govern software factories, giving enterprises the confidence to ship software better, faster, and safer. Writing code is no longer the bottleneck. Governing what reaches production and validating its impact is. As enterprises adopt agentic coding, software is created faster than most teams can review, secure, and validate. Without consistent governance, organizations risk shipping code they cannot explain, audit, or trust. CloudBees addresses this challenge without asking teams to replace the tools they already use. Across every toolchain a customer runs, CloudBees makes each change, human or AI, visible, auditable, and accountable before it reaches production. CloudBees Unify is the product behind this: a governance layer, with context and control-plane capabilities, that enforces consistent policy and evidence across every tool, team, and workflow. Founded in 2010, CloudBees is backed by Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Bridgepoint Capital, HSBC, Golub Capital, Delta-v Capital, Matrix Partners, and Lightspeed Venture Partners. Visit us at www.cloudbees.com. About The Role The CloudBees platform is the foundation everything else is built on. When it works well, engineers ship faster, customers trust us more, and the product compounds. When it doesn't, every team feels it. This is that team — and this role matters. We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join the Platform Engineering team. You will be part of an engineering team comprising front-end, back-end, and full-stack software engineers doing agile development. You bring deep back-end engineering expertise and, just as importantly, a product mindset — you understand that platform is a product, and the quality of your abstractions directly determines what everyone else can build. You are past the point of needing your work scoped for you. You write production-quality code, you design systems that others will build on for years, and you have the judgment to know when to optimize for speed and when to optimize for correctness. You are fluent in the tradeoffs of distributed systems, curious about how the platform affects the full software delivery lifecycle, and committed to leaving things better than you found them. Requirements What You'll Do Own the platform foundation Design, build, and maintain high-throughput, resilient backend services and APIs that power the CloudBees platform across cloud and hybrid environments. Develop and own microservices using Golang, ensuring they are performant, observable, and built for long-term maintainability. Partner with frontend engineers and platform architects to define and implement clean API contracts (REST, gRPC, GraphQL) that enable great developer experiences. Contribute to the design and evolution of our data layer — including relational (PostgreSQL), NoSQL (Cassandra), and streaming (Kafka/NATs) systems. Think like a product engineer Be the voice of the customer in every technical discussion. Understand how they use the platform, what slows them down, and what would unlock the most value — then build it. Bring a product lens to your technical work: participate in roadmap discussions, question assumptions, and advocate for platform investments that have outsized downstream leverage. Collaborate with product managers and engineers across the org to understand how platform decisions ripple outward — into CI/CD behavior, developer experience, compliance posture, and customer outcomes. Write documentation, runbooks, and internal guides that make the platform understandable and self-serviceable for the teams that depend on it. Raise the bar for engineering quality Write clean, testable, well-documented code. Set the standard for what good looks like on your team. Instrument your services from day one — meaningful metrics, structured logging, distributed tracing — and use observability data to drive continuous improvement. Lead and participate in design reviews, architecture decisions, and code review with rigor and constructive honesty. Mentor peers and contribute to a culture of shared ownership, psychological safety, and engineering craftsmanship. You May Be a Good Fit If Your background You have 5+ years of backend software engineering experience, with a track record of shipping and operating production services in a B2B SaaS environment. You have strong proficiency in Golang — you understand the language deeply, not just the syntax. You have hands-on experience with distributed systems: microservices, event-driven architecture, service mesh, and the failure modes that come with them. You have 3+ years working with our tech stack or equivalent: Kubernetes, NATs, REST/gRPC/GraphQL APIs, AWS and/or GCP, and relational or NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, Cassandra). You have experience with identity and access management at a systems level — authentication flows, authorization models, JWTs, SAML, OIDC, multi-tenancy patterns. Your mindset You think holistically about how your work fits into the larger system — and you actively seek to understand the customer, product, and business context around what you build. You have a product engineering instinct: you're not satisfied shipping something that works technically if it doesn't serve the people using it well. You are comfortable with ambiguity and can navigate competing priorities, make sound technical decisions with incomplete information, and communicate your reasoning clearly. You care about the developer experience your platform creates — clean APIs, predictable behavior, fast onboarding, and minimal surprise. You take ownership seriously. You don't wait to be asked to fix things, improve documentation, or flag risks. Customer Obsessed — You treat customer problems as your own and build relationships with the people behind the logo, not just the account. You can point to decisions you changed because of what a customer told you. High Agency — You own problems beyond your job description and move without waiting to be asked. When the path isn't defined, you make the call and bring people with you rather than working around them. Truth Seeking — You hold a strong point of view and update it when the data says otherwise. You argue for the best answer regardless of who's in the room, and once a decision is made, you commit to it fully. Hard Work — You own the end result, not just your slice of it, and you go beyond what's expected to get there. You work smart as well as hard, and you find real reward in building something demanding alongside people who do the same. Ship Excellence — You hold a painfully high quality bar and keep raising it, while shipping with urgency instead of waiting for perfect. Every iteration is something you learn from. Direct Feedback — You give honest, constructive feedback regardless of seniority or tenure, and you actively ask for it in return. You deliver it with enough care that people want to hear it from you. Strong candidates may also Experience integrating AI/ML capabilities or LLM-powered features into production backend services. Familiarity with agentic frameworks (LangChain, CrewAI) or MCP-enabled tooling. Contributions to open-source projects, particularly in the Jenkins or broader DevOps ecosystem. Experience with IdP solutions such as Keycloak. Prior work in DevSecOps, compliance engineering, or regulated enterprise environments (SOC 2, FedRAMP). BA/BS in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience. Compensation & Benefits Base Pay Range: $140,000 – $165,000 annually In accordance with applicable law, this represents a reasonable estimated compensation range for this role. Actual compensation will be determined based on skills, experience, and geographic location and may be more or less than the amount shown above. Outside of base compensation, CloudBees also offers stock options and variable bonuses. What CloudBees Offers Time that's actually yours.
