## About the role

As a Software Engineer on the Security Engineering team at Harvey, you'll build and operate foundational security services for both our customer-facing product and the internal systems our workforce depends on: identity and access management, secrets and privileged access, agent sandboxes, and tooling that makes the secure path the fast path. You'll turn security needs into production systems and own the reliability and security of what you build, working closely with engineers and partner teams along the way.

## What they're looking for

- 2+ years of software engineering experience, including experience shipping and operating production services
- Experience building or contributing to security infrastructure such as identity and access management, authentication and authorization, secrets management, or privileged access
- Strong programming, debugging, testing, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to work across unfamiliar systems and domains
- Experience with cloud infrastructure such as Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, or Amazon Web Services and familiarity with modern distributed-system patterns
- A track record of translating security requirements into maintainable, automated systems
- Experience using agentic coding tools and creating workflows that automate repetitive security work, with the judgment to review their output critically and measure whether they improve security outcomes
