Senior Software Security Engineer, Detection Engineering | Germany | Remote at Grafana Labs

This role is for a senior security engineer who thrives at the intersection of software development and security operations. You should have 4+ years of experience in a code-heavy environment, specifically with Go, Python, or TypeScript. The ideal candidate understands cloud-native architectures (Kubernetes/Public Cloud) and wants to build automated detection-as-code systems rather than just monitoring a dashboard. This is a fully remote position in Germany with a highly transparent compensation model. Beyond the competitive base salary, you will receive RSUs, giving you an ownership stake in a major open-source powerhouse. The culture is "SOCless," meaning you’ll focus on engineering advanced response tooling and metrics rather than traditional repetitive monitoring, all while having access to a funded budget for modern AI coding assistants. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have strong coding skills in Go or Python and enjoy building internal security tools from scratch. * Are experienced with Kubernetes, container hardening, and public cloud security (AWS/GCP/Azure). * Familiar with detection-as-code frameworks like Sigma or YARA. * Want to contribute back to the open-source community through detection research.
