Software Engineer

As a Staff Engineer, you'll play a pivotal role in shaping the technical foundation behind mission-critical systems that power secure, seamless identity experiences for enterprises worldwide.

Embedded within a high-impact, high-ownership engineering team, you'll drive end-to-end technical direction - from architecture and system design to hands-on implementation in production. You'll partner closely with Engineering, Product, and cross-functional leaders across Tel Aviv, the US, and Serbia to solve some of the most complex challenges in fraud detection, real-time data processing, and AI-driven automation.

This is a deeply technical leadership role for someone who thrives at the intersection of distributed systems, large-scale infrastructure, and emerging AI technologies - and who leads through both vision and execution., * Core Platform Architecture & Technical Strategy - Define and own the technical roadmap for foundational platform components powering fraud detection and identity verification at scale. Shape long-term architecture decisions that ensure reliability, scalability, and performance across mission-critical systems.

• Cross-Team Technical Leadership - Lead complex architectural initiatives spanning multiple engineering teams and geographies. Drive technical alignment, author design documents, facilitate decision-making, and build consensus across Engineering and Product stakeholders.
• Hands-On Engineering Excellence - Stay deeply involved in implementation - contributing production-grade code, raising engineering standards through example, and mentoring teams through technical leadership and execution excellence.
• Large-Scale Data & Streaming Systems - Design and evolve high-throughput distributed systems, including real-time, streaming, and batch data processing pipelines leveraging technologies such as Kafka, Flink, and Spark.
• AI-Driven Engineering Innovation - Drive adoption of AI agentic workflows throughout the engineering lifecycle - integrating LLM-powered automation into production systems, developer tooling, and operational practices to accelerate innovation and efficiency.
• Global Collaboration & Execution - Partner effectively across distributed teams in Tel Aviv, the US, and Serbia, acting as a technical bridge between engineering, product, and business stakeholders to deliver impactful outcomes at scale.
• Product & Business Partnership - Collaborate closely with Product Managers and cross-functional leaders to shape solutions from concept to delivery - balancing technical excellence with customer needs, business priorities, and operational realities., * Rocket-Ship Growth - Join at an inflection point where your strategies will compound in value for years.
• Elite Team & Backing - Work a truly global with top engineers, designers, and investors who share your ambition to dominate a category.
• Ownership & Autonomy - Operate like a founder with the resources of a unicorn.
• Global Impact - Every program you launch will reverberate across industries and continents.
