We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to take ownership of backend and web-platform development for HENNGE One, our flagship cloud-security suite used by organizations across a wide range of industries. As a B2B SaaS leader in Japan, we provide mission-critical security solutions that empower customers to work safely from anywhere.
In this role, you will join the Secure Transfer Team, responsible for the development of HENNGE One Data Loss Prevention (DLP) Edition. You will be developing our high-security file exchange solution, which serves as a core component of our product ecosystem. Your mission is to architect scalable and fault-tolerant systems in a distributed cloud deployment to handle and protect sensitive enterprise data. This position requires you to maintain and improve our system architecture leveraging a deep knowledge of AWS and Kubernetes (alongside tools like Terraform), combined with a strong passion for backend application development.
While this role primarily focuses on the DLP Edition, we value engineers who are flexible and open to new challenges, with opportunities to move between teams and products through two-way discussions that support your growth and the company’s goals.
Tech Stack: FastAPI, Kubernetes, ArgoCD, PostgreSQL, AWS
If you are also interested in the Senior Software Engineer: Python/Web Dev – HENNGE Access Control position, you do not need to submit applications for both roles.
