Why Join Us?

We are looking for a passionate Software Developer to join our WAF SaaS Platform team, where we build, evolve, and operate Check Point’s cloud-native WAF SaaS product.

In this role, you will focus on developing high-performance C++ components that are part of the WAF SaaS platform, while also contributing to the broader product and infrastructure needs of the team. You will work on security, traffic, performance, and platform-related capabilities, and take part in building features that directly impact the SaaS product.

We are looking for a strong team player with a high sense of ownership, a “get-things-done” mindset, and the willingness to contribute across all areas of development — from C++ and backend services to cloud infrastructure, DevOps, and frontend when needed.

• Work closely with cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes-based environments, CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, logging, and automation tools
• Contribute to end-to-end feature development, from design and implementation through deployment, observability, support, and production operation
• Collaborate closely with developers, DevOps engineers, product managers, security researchers, support teams, and other stakeholders
• Investigate production issues, debug complex problems, and understand the real-world impact of features, bugs, and infrastructure changes
• Build and maintain dashboards, alerts, and operational tools, using data and metrics to improve reliability, performance, and product decisions
