Sr. Engineer, Falcon Secure Access

The Falcon Secure Access (FSA) team As a Senior Software Engineer on our team, you will architect and deliver a next-generation secure access platform that converges Zero Trust Network Access with browser-native security.

You'll build the core systems that enable users to seamlessly and securely access internal sites, private applications, and cloud resources directly from the browser - without legacy VPNs or remote desktops - while enforcing real-time protection against zero-day exploits, phishing, data exfiltration, and unauthorized access.

This role sits at the intersection of network engineering and browser security: you'll design and implement advanced proxy communication, secure tunneling, and identity-aware routing - all operating at the browser's core to deliver holistic protection including DLP, insider threat detection, SaaS security, and continuous zero-trust verification.

What You'll Do:

Design and build ZTNA infrastructure - implement zero-trust access policies, secure tunneling, and identity-aware network routing that replaces traditional VPN architectures

Develop advanced networking solutions - build and optimize proxy communication layers, WebSocket-based transport, and encrypted client-to-server channels that handle millions of concurrent connections

Architect high-scale backend systems - design distributed microservices for policy enforcement, real-time threat detection, and access control at scale using Node.js / TypeScript

Implement secure client-server communication - design highly secured agent-to-cloud architectures with certificate pinning, mutual TLS, and encrypted tunneling protocols

Build browser-native security components - develop browser extensions and agents (Chrome, Edge, Firefox etc.) that enforce data protection, prevent data leakage, and provide granular visibility and control

Own features end-to-end - from design through delivery, including deployment and monitoring

Influence architecture and roadmap - play a key role in architectural decisions, building toward an efficient distributed zero-trust architecture

Research and develop - drive new initiatives and POCs in zero-trust access domains and browser security

Collaborate cross-functionally - work with security researchers, product, and platform teams across multiple locations to solve complex problems
