Senior Software Engineer - Authentication

Who we are

Are you passionate about innovating at the intersection of technology and personal security? At Pindrop, we recognize that the human voice is a unique personal identifier, increasingly susceptible to sophisticated fraud, including the threat of deepfakes. We're leading the way in developing cutting-edge authentication, fraud prevention, and deepfake detection. Our mission is to provide seamless and secure digital experiences, safeguarding the most personal aspect of our identity: our voice. Here, you'll be part of a team driven by values of Innovation, Customer Advocacy, Excellence, and Impact. We're not just creating a safer digital landscape by fortifying trust and integrity with those we serve, we’re also building a dynamic, supportive workplace where your contributions make a real difference.

  • Develop and maintain services using AWS native products such as Kinesis, DynamoDB, and S3 as well as GCP native products.
  • Deliver production-ready code from start to finish.
  • Review code to maintain quality with an eye towards performance, scale, and security.
  • Work in a cross-functional environment composed of software engineers, test engineers, research scientists, and product managers.

  • You are happy in a role in which a week in the life might include context switching between application diagnostic troubleshooting using industry standard tools such as Prometheus and Grafana, triaging production issues using tools such as Google Logging and Cloud Trace, troubleshooting regression tests in different environments, designing new product solutions, improving current product features, and coding.
