- Work across a multi-tenant, multi-cloud deployment footprint (M365 and Google Workspace customers, FedRAMP environments)
- Leverage AI-augmented development tools to explore solutions, refine outputs, and deliver reliable production outcomes faster.
- Collaborate with product and cross-functional partners to iterate quickly on features that move customers from legacy SEGs to Abnormal.
- Contribute to service reliability, observability, and operational quality as the team scales its product surface.
Must Haves
- 3+ years of professional experience in software development.
- Backend development experience with Python or Golang.
- Experience building scalable, enterprise-grade applications.

- Strong fundamentals in computer science, data structures, and performance optimization.
Nice to Have
- Experience with AI development tools such as Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or Claude.
- Experience with event-driven systems: Kafka, SQS, or similar message queue / stream processing patterns.
- Familiarity with email delivery pipelines, email authentication standards (DMARC, DKIM, SPF), or email security products.
- Exposure to multi-tenant SaaS architectures or enterprise integrations (M365, Google Workspace APIs).
- Experience improving service reliability, observability, and operational tooling in production systems.
