Job Summary

We’re hiring a Senior Platform Backend Engineer to build and operate the services connecting workflow execution, identity, event routing, secrets management, and audit infrastructure across the Kaseya Intelligence Platform. This is a hands-on backend role focused on Go or Rust, event-driven architecture, multi-tenant security, and production reliability. You’ll independently own complex services used by engineering teams and agentic AI workloads, from design and implementation through deployment and ongoing operation.

Roles & Responsibilities

Build and operate backend platform services supporting API access, event routing, workflow execution, machine identity, and immutable audit records
Develop event-driven integrations that convert PSA webhooks, RMM alerts, and platform events into durable workflows using Kafka and Temporal
Implement a secrets-management and KMS abstraction supporting cloud key-management providers, bring-your-own-key models, envelope encryption, and customer-level cryptographic isolation
Build authentication and authorization services that enforce capability grants for individual customers, workflows, operations, and service-to-service requests
Own GitOps-based deployment pipelines for versioned workflow definitions across isolated customer environments
Develop onboarding automation for identity provisioning, compliance configuration, and customer-specific key-management setup
Build secure connector services for third-party APIs, including scoped access, platform-managed credentials, request validation, and audit logging
Own the reliability of production services through monitoring, distributed tracing, incident response, root-cause analysis, and long-term corrective improvements

Required Qualifications

5+ years of backend software engineering experience, including experience building and operating production services using Go or Rust
Experience building event-driven systems using Kafka or similar technologies, including retries, idempotency, replay, and at-least-once delivery
Experience implementing authentication or authorization using OAuth 2.0, OIDC, token lifecycle management, machine identity, or fine-grained access controls
Experience implementing encryption or key-management solutions using cloud KMS platforms, envelope encryption, or key-hierarchy designs
Experience operating multi-tenant production services using structured logging, metrics, distributed tracing, and incident-response practices

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with Temporal or another durable workflow orchestration platform
Experience integrating identity platforms such as Zitadel, Keycloak, Auth0, Okta, or similar technologies
Experience with ClickHouse or another columnar, append-only, or audit-focused data store
Experience with GitOps, CI/CD, Kubernetes, or infrastructure-as-code deployment practices
Experience integrating MSP, PSA, RMM, security, or Microsoft 365 platform APIs
Experience building software for environments subject to SOC 2, HIPAA, CMMC, or similar requirements
Experience developing platform services across AWS, Azure, or GCP
