Software Engineer I - Secure Platform Operations (Remote Eligible)

Описание вакансии

For over 20 years, Smartsheet has helped people and teams achieve–well, anything. From seamless work management to smart, scalable solutions, we’ve always worked with flow. We’re building tools that empower teams to automate the manual, uncover insights, and scale smarter. But more than that, we’re creating space– space to think big, take action, and unlock the kind of work that truly matters. Because when challenge meets purpose, and passion turns into progress, that’s magic at work, and it’s what we show up for everyday.

Automation is the key to creating highly reliable and secure large-scale software systems. Are you ready to launch your career by engineering solutions rather than simply fixing problems?

We are looking for a Software Engineer I to join our global Secure Platform Operations team in the US. This is a unique opportunity for an early-career engineer to work at the intersection of platform engineering, security, and developer experience. You will be mentored by senior leaders to help build and evolve a platform with security as a first priority, and support engineering teams with onboarding, automating, and simplifying the experience in order to improve resilience/reliability, reduce operational burden for teams, and accelerate productivity and velocity for Smartsheet.

In this role, you will learn to treat security and reliability as software engineering challenges. You will grow into a key contributor who ensures our production environment is scalable, defensible, and highly reliable.

What You Will Do

• Learn and Build Secure Infrastructure: Under the guidance of senior engineers, you will assist in designing and maintaining secure infrastructure on EKS in our multi-cloud environment (AWS) using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform).
• Automate Security & Workflows: You will write code (Python, Go, or Bash) to automate manual tasks, threat detection, and vulnerability management processes.
• Secure the Pipeline: You will help integrate security tools (SAST, DAST, SCA) into our CI/CD pipelines, ensuring developers receive fast, actionable feedback on their code.
• Support Container Operations: You will gain hands-on experience managing and securing our container orchestration platform (Kubernetes/EKS) and self-hosted GitLab Runners.
• Collaborate and Grow: You will participate in code reviews, technical discussions, and blameless post-mortems to learn operational excellence and security best practices.

What You Have:

• US Person Status: Must be a U.S. Citizen, U.S. National to meet federal compliance requirements.
• Education: A BS or MS in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent capability).
• Foundational Coding Skills: Proficiency in at least one modern programming or scripting language, such as Python, Go, Java, or Bash.
• Cloud Curiosity: A basic understanding of cloud concepts (AWS preferred) and a strong desire to learn Infrastructure as Code (Terraform).
• Security Mindset: Familiarity with basic security concepts (e.g., OWASP Top 10) or a strong interest in the cybersecurity landscape.
• Problem Solving: A critical thinker who enjoys troubleshooting complex technical problems and wants to understand how large-scale systems work.
• Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication skills and a collaborative spirit.

Nice to Have:

• Previous internship experience in DevOps, SRE, Platform Engineering, or Software Engineering.
• Experience with Linux/Unix command line.
• Personal projects or coursework involving Docker, Kubernetes, or CI/CD pipelines (GitLab/GitHub).
• Basic understanding of networking concepts (HTTP, DNS, TCP/IP).

Current US Perks & Benefits:

• Medical/vision and dental coverage options for full-time employees
• 401k Match to help you save for your future (50% of your contribution up to the first 6% of your eligible pay)
