About the Role   Netskope Secure Web Gateway (SWG) governs how global enterprises reach the web and cloud, and Real-time Protection (RTP) policy is how customers define what is allowed, blocked, or inspected. The RTP team builds the backend services and APIs that manage that policy and deliver it to the Netskope platform worldwide.

We are seeking a Staff Software Engineer to architect, build, and scale these services. This is a hands-on IC role with genuine ownership: you take services from design through production and are accountable for how they behave.

We work in an AI-augmented engineering culture. AI tools accelerate us, but the engineer is always the author. We want someone who can direct AI toward correct, generic solutions, recognize when it produced something that merely works instead of something that is right, and hold every line of code to the same standard: lean, meaningful, and exactly fit for its purpose.

What You Will Be Doing

• Service Architecture and Implementation. Design, build, and scale concurrent, robust microservices and APIs in Golang.
• AI as a Force Multiplier, You as the Reviewer. Use AI coding agents daily; specify problems precisely, push for generic reusable solutions, and reject output that adds technical debt or security flaws.
