Aalyria is a leading technology company that supplies laser communications technology and temporospatial software-defined networking platforms to the aerospace industry. Backed by Battery.
About the role
As a Software Engineer on the Security Platform team, you'll build the identity, credentials, and audit capabilities that secure Spacetime. The team owns security for Aalyria products, and we build each capability once so it works the same in every environment Spacetime ships into. A system built this way produces its own compliance evidence. You'll work with senior engineers on the team and with product engineers across Aalyria. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- 5+ years of backend software engineering on production services
- Experience in Go, or backend experience in a comparable language and readiness to work in Go daily
- Hands on experience contributing to at least one of: an authentication or authorization system inside a product, an identity provider integration, a certificate authority, or a secrets or key management service
- Understanding of how token based authentication fails, including audience confusion, unverified issuers, key confusion, and redirect handling at token endpoints, and how to prevent those failures
- Working knowledge of Kubernetes and cloud infrastructure
- Comfort owning a component in production, including on call rotations and incident response

Spacetime runs in commercial cloud, government cloud, and classified or disconnected environments, and that last category shapes the work. Trust decisions must be verifiable offline, at sites we cannot reach, with no upstream to call. Most identity platforms assume a connected world. Ours cannot. Our security platform is evolving, with capabilities that grew up alongside Spacetime being consolidated into one coherent layer with identity at its center, and the engineers we hire now will help build it. The people who thrive here are curious about how security systems fail, care about getting the details right, and take ownership of what they ship.
