Job Description
Arm’s Vulnerability Research and Tooling team is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to help build and scale Metis, our central security analysis platform. The team develops backend services and tooling that enable engineering teams to run security analysis centrally, with consistent operations, shared visibility, and actionable security data across the company.
In this role, you will focus on building out Software Composition analysis (SCA) capabilities and the backend systems that support them at scale. You will work on tool integration, results processing, and the services that make analysis outputs usable by engineering teams.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, build, and maintain core backend services for centralised security analysis and data processing.
- Develop Python services, APIs, and workflow components that support tool onboarding, analysis execution, results processing, and results delivery.
- Improve the scalability, resilience, and operability of the platform as adoption and analysis volume grow.
- Integrate and extend SCA capabilities, while building platform foundations that support adjacent security tooling over time.
- Build observability into services through metrics, dashboards, monitoring, and alerting.
- Work with security and engineering teams to turn requirements into practical platform capabilities.
- Contribute to the evolution of the platform’s backend architecture and service integration.
