About Virtru

While the rest of the security industry obsesses over locking data down to prevent it from being lost or stolen, we're doing something fundamentally different at Virtru. We're setting data free so that you can intentionally share it with others, but without sacrificing security, privacy, or control.

We've created both a suite of powerful data protection applications and an open platform that's sparking an ecosystem of innovation. Through the Trusted Data Format (TDF) open standard, we're not just protecting data; we're creating a new paradigm where security enables sharing rather than preventing it.

Think of us as the Android of data protection: a robust platform with an open core that developers and partners can build upon, coupled with our own best-in-class applications that showcase what's possible when you reimagine security from the ground up.

Backed by Iconiq Capital, Bessemer Venture Partners, Foundry Capital, and Tiger Global, we're helping Fortune 500 companies and government agencies discover that true data security means having the freedom to share, collaborate, and innovate — without compromise.

Compensation: $190,000 - 250,000/year

Team & Position Details

Virtru protects data wherever it travels, for customers ranging from commercial enterprises to the Department of Defense, the Intelligence Community, Law Enforcement, and Federal Civilian agencies. Many of these customers run Virtru inside their mission environments, and the most sensitive of those environments are cleared spaces where work happens on site, alongside the customer's own engineers.

As a Senior Software Engineer in the Delivery Engineering organization, you'd be helping to build a founder team focused on making these deployments simple, easy, and fast. You will be the engineer who builds what a cleared customer needs and cannot get from the product alone: custom integrations and policy enforcement points (the components that enforce access policy inside a customer's application) delivered into the customer's environment. You will sit with customer engineers, understand how their systems really work, and ship working software that fits them.

You will work directly with deployment engineers and forward deployed engineers on the customer side of each engagement, with QA to prove what you build before it ships, and with our product engineering and Platform Engineering counterparts to carry what you learn back into the product. The test of your work is simple: the second time we face the same customer need, we should be configuring something you built, not writing it again.

The impact of this role is company and product wide, heavily enabling our goals to scale Virtru, partner, and customer led deployments non-linearly without having to throw more humans at the problem. You'll be expected to come up with AI-native design patterns that will increase our velocity without compromising our high bar for quality and security. The right candidate is e
