About the Role
We’re looking for a Staff Security Engineer to define and drive the authentication and authorization architecture for Veeam Data Cloud (VDC), our cloud-native SaaS platform. This role is centered on evaluating, defining, and evolving our authorization model - including RBAC and API access control across VDC services and teams. You’ll partner closely with product and platform engineering to ensure access is consistently designed, implemented, and enforced across the product.
We provide secure data protection services on AWS, Azure, and GCP, integrating with platforms like Microsoft 365 and Salesforce for customers in regulated industries
What You’ll Do
- Define end-to-end security architecture for identity and authorization across VDC (control plane and data plane)
- Evaluate and define authorization standards for multi-tenant SaaS, including RBAC/ABAC patterns, API authorization, and consistent permission modeling across services
- Define role/permission models for customer users, customer admins, internal support/admin access, and service-to-service authorization
- Design and standardize identity and authorization for agents and connectors running in customer environments (token/scopes, least privilege, rotation)
- Define shared security capabilities like tenant isolation, policy enforcement, and rate limiting
- Set standards for secure logging and telemetry for authentication and authorization
- Turn repeat security issues into reusable guardrails and shared services
- Support compliance work (e.g., SOC 2, FedRAMP-style, IRAP) through lasting design improvements
- Be hands-on in implementation: write code, perform code reviews, and submit PRs to VDC repositories; at times, embed with product teams to deliver authorization changes end-to-end
- Join design reviews and help teams adopt standard security patterns
What You’ll Bring
- Proven background as a Security Architect / Senior Security Engineer / Software Engineering for cloudnative, multitenant SaaS
- Strong, hands-on expertise integrating and operating Okta, Auth0, and/or Keycloak from a software engineering perspective (SDKs/APIs, OIDC/OAuth flows, token handling, automation)
- Strong software engineering background: proficiency in one or more of C#/.NET, Go, Java, Python, or TypeScript
- Deep knowledge of authorization concepts and implementation: RBAC, permission modeling, policy enforcement, OAuth2/OIDC, JWT, mTLS, workload identities, tenant isolation, and secure API design
- Strong Azure security architecture knowledge (Entra ID, AKS, networking, monitoring, hardening)
- Experience turning vulnerability patterns for AAA into scalable platform solutions
- Strong communication skills in English; comfortable in distributed teams
Bonus Skills
- Building shared authn/authz libraries, policy engines, or security control plane services
- Secure logging/telemetry design and data sanitization
- Multicloud/hybrid identity experience
What You’ll Get
- 26 paid days off annually, plus 4 extra global VeeaMe Days for self-care and 24 paid volunteer hours annually through Veeam Cares
- Paid parental, maternity, and paternity leave
- Fully covered family medical plan, dental, rehab, and vaccinations
