Senior Software Engineer - Government Cloud

Senior Software Engineer - Government Cloud

We're hiring a software engineer to join the team responsible for bringing Tines to federal customers in AWS GovCloud. You'll build and improve the product features and tooling that make Tines work seamlessly in a compliance-regulated environment, ensuring federal customers have the same powerful experience as our commercial users — while meeting the security and operational requirements unique to the government.

This role is about more than writing code: you'll have an influential voice in shaping our technical direction, our product, and our culture. We have a hugely supportive and collaborative engineering team that takes great pride in the work we do and the challenges we solve. We're eager to help grow and nurture each other's abilities and also create an environment where we have the ability to do our very best work.

Location

You can work fully remotely from anywhere in the US with a preference for being based in the Greater Boston Area. Here, you can make use of our Tines office space in downtown Boston to meet up with other members of the MA engineering team when you wish.

Due to the nature of this role and associated U.S. Government customer requirements, applicants must be U.S. citizens and must perform work while located within the United States.

What you will be doing

• Design, build, and harden product features within a compliance-regulated cloud environment — writing code with a strong focus on security controls, data privacy, and auditability.
• Building features specific to AWS GovCloud users: authentication methods required by federal agencies, audit and compliance capabilities, and tooling that makes it easier for customers to operate and audit their own Tines tenants.
• Building abstractions that reduce friction for engineers across Tines to author and test features in a government cloud environment without needing direct access to it — environment-aware configuration, feature flags, and automated compliance boundary testing.
• Enabling software engineers to build new product features that work seamlessly across commercial and government cloud environments: observability, logging, and simplifying deployments.
• Analyzing our application for security gaps, identifying where existing functionality needs to be adapted, constrained, or hardened to meet government standards — and implementing those changes yourself.
• Working cross-functionally across product teams to align timelines and develop hands-on solutions that meet security controls, translating between compliance requirements and engineering reality.
• Using your knowledge and experience to mentor other engineers on secure design patterns and building confidently for regulated environments.
