DigiCert Quantum Central is the platform helping enterprises get ahead of that transition: discovering cryptographic assets, identifying vulnerabilities, prioritizing remediation, and managing their migration to post-quantum cryptography (PQC). The Quantum Central engineering team is looking for a full stack Senior Software Engineer to help build this platform from the ground up. This is greenfield, high-impact work on a problem the industry hasn't fully solved yet. You'll design APIs, own features end-to-end, and ship software that some of the world's largest organizations depend on to stay secure. We move fast. We use AI as a force multiplier. And we hold the bar high on quality — because in security, cutting corners isn't an option. What you will do Build RESTful, highly scalable cloud-native services in Go and TypeScriptOwn features end-to-end: design, implementation, testing, deployment, and observabilityUse AI coding agents (Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, etc.) as a native part of your daily workflow — fluently, not occasionallyDesign and ship software using agentic AI workflows: LLM orchestration, autonomous pipelines, and AI-assisted product features where relevant to the Quantum Central platformCollaborate with engineers, product managers, and security researchers to build PQC readiness tooling the market doesn't yet haveEngage with engineering leaders to implement industry best practices and drive technical decisionsAnalyse, troubleshoot, and debug product defects and deliver timely solutionsDevelop a deep understanding of post-quantum cryptography, PKI, and the cryptographic asset landscape What you will have +5 years of professional software engineering experienceExpert proficiency in Go for designing and building RESTful, cloud-native web servicesStrong TypeScript backend development skillsFluency with AI coding agents (Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, or similar) as a daily, production workflow — you use them to ship faster and with higher quality, and you bring the judgment to review what they produceHands-on experience building with agentic AI workflows: LLM API integration, function-calling pipelines, autonomous agents, or AI-assisted development pipelines in production or near-production systemsStrong knowledge of software engineering best practices: design, testing, architecture, and code qualityExperience with service-based architectures and distributed systemsSolid understanding of relational databases, SQL best practices, indexes, and query optimizationFamiliarity with Test Automation Frameworks and CI/CD pipelinesExposure to AWS or equivalent cloud infrastructureAbility to identify where AI can accelerate delivery and advocate for AI-first engineering practices within the teamStrong communication and collaboration skills Nice to have Understanding of post-quantum cryptography (PQC), SSL/TLS, PKI, or cryptographic asset managementFamiliarity with NIST PQC standards (Kyber, Dilithium, etc.)Experience with cryptographic discovery tools, CMDB integrations, or security posture management platformsBachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or equivalent industry experienceExperience building multi-agent AI systems or RAG-based features integrated into real product workflowsTechnologies and tools we use — any experience is a bonus:GoMySQL / MariaDBReact / ReduxJavaDocker and KubernetesGit and GitHubJira API / ITSM integrationsWhat We're Really Looking For Beyond the technical requirements, we're looking for someone with a specific mindset: AI-native, not AI-curious. You've already internalized AI coding agents into your daily workflow. You know their strengths, their failure modes, and how to prompt them effectively. You use them to move faster without letting them move carelessly.Speed with judgment. You understand that "ship fast" and "ship quality" aren't opposites — they're a discipline.
