Lead Software Engineer

Help us design and build the next generation of cybersecurity software — with AI at its core❗️

👉🏿 About the Role:

We’re looking for a Lead Software Engineer to join Glev at a pivotal moment. As one of our early engineering hires, you’ll play a central role in designing and building the core systems of an AI-native cybersecurity platform that will redefine how vulnerabilities are managed.

You’ll work across the stack — from backend APIs to front-end experiences, infrastructure, and AI integrations — with a strong focus on delivering clean, scalable, and secure code. This role is for a senior builder who thrives on turning complex problems into elegant solutions, and who wants to work at the heart of a fast-moving, high-impact product.

We’re remote-first, moving fast, and building for scale. If you're passionate about product-oriented development, cybersecurity, and the promise of AI in real-world systems, Glev is the place to bring all that together.

How You’ll Shape Our Product❓

• Design pragmatic, elegant solutions
• Translate real customer needs into robust, scalable software while balancing technical constraints and business priorities.
• Build across the stack
• Develop and maintain features across backend (Python/FastAPI), frontend (React), AI integration, and infrastructure — always following best practices for maintainability, performance, and security.
• Own code quality and reliability
• Write comprehensive unit and functional tests, contribute to code reviews, and ensure the smooth operation of our production systems.
• Secure by design
• As a user of Glev’s own platform, you’ll play an active role in hardening our application and improving its security posture.
• Stay curious and share knowledge
• Engage in technical watch, experiment with new tools, and continuously bring fresh ideas and practices into the team.

🧰 What You’ll Bring:

• 8+ years of experience as a software engineer, ideally in high-paced, agile product teams (startups or scaleups)
• Strong fullstack experience with a user-centric mindset and a problem-solving approach
• Excellent communication and collaboration in a remote-first environment: self-driven, responsive, and respectful of work-life balance
• Fluent in French and professional-level English, both written and spoken

👀 Bonus points for:

• A personal or professional interest in cybersecurity
• Familiarity with AI tools or technologies
• Experience with our stack: Python (FastAPI, Pydantic), React, PostgreSQL, Kestra, Keycloak, Terraform, GitLab

😀 Why You’ll Love Building with Us

• Tackle meaningful challenges
• You’ll help build software that secures the foundations of the digital world — solving complex engineering problems with direct, real-world impact.
• Work at the frontier
• Our product lives at the intersection of generative AI, cybersecurity, and software engineering. You’ll explore new ground, not just optimize the old.
• Shape how we build
• As an early engineer, you’ll influence the tech choices, development practices, and architecture decisions that will shape Glev for years to come.
• Be part of a human, high-performing team
• We’re a team of experienced entrepreneurs and builders, focused on trust, autonomy, and excellence — without ego. We value people as much as we value output.
