Senior Software Engineer – Semantic Layer and AI Interfaces
Are you looking for more in life than just building another web app? Does upending cyber security resonate with you? We're a rapidly expanding cybersecurity company revolutionizing vulnerability management for organizations of all sizes. For our customers, vulnerability management has always been a game of catch-up, with limited asset coverage and manual processes. Nucleus' primary mission is to create a fast, scalable platform that not only addresses these challenges but also makes vulnerability management simple, fun, and effortless. Currently, we're looking for a passionate Senior Software Engineer to join our growing team of engineers.
What You Will Do:
- Own the end-to-end lifecycle of AI-driven features—from prototyping and experimentation to production deployment and customer delivery
- Design, build, and evolve our semantic data layer to enable scalable, high-quality AI and analytics use cases
- Collaborate with engineering, product, and data teams to translate ambiguous requirements into robust technical solutions
- Diagnose, triage, and resolve production issues quickly, ensuring reliability and continuous improvement of deployed systems
- Strong background in data analytics, data science, and/or data warehousing.
- Deep expertise in SQL, including performance optimization and complex query design.
- Proficiency in Python or similar language for data processing and AI integration.
- Experience working in a test-driven environment and writing unit and integration tests
- Proven ability in technical troubleshooting.
- Capable of working independently as well as collaboratively with teams across different time zones.
- Experience working with vulnerability scanning technologies on any part of the tech stack (e.g., SCA, SAST, DAST, IAST, VM Scanning, Container, etc.)
- Experience with column store databases and columnar data, especially using SingleStore/MEMSQL
- Experience integrating AI/LLM-driven features with data platform.
- Familiarity with Agile/Scrum methodologies in a professional setting.
- Experience maintaining applications on Linux platforms in cloud environments.
- Experience with modern versions of PHP, and the Zend and Laminas Frameworks
- Improve key components of the application to enable data scalability.
- Nucleus is a truly unique solution that’s defining a market AND making an actual impact.
- We’re biased, but you will get to work with one of the best teams in security. We have a lot to get done and we work extremely hard, but we have fun in the process.
