Senior Engineer
Snyk | Intelligence Curation Team Tel Aviv, Israel
Snyk is the leader in secure AI software development, helping millions of developers develop fast and stay secure as AI transforms how software is built. The Intelligence Curation Team owns the system behind Snyk’s Vulnerability Database—the industry’s most trusted source of security intelligence. We build the sophisticated pipelines and AI-driven tools that discover, analyze, and normalize the data that powers every Snyk product.
Our mission is to turn the chaos of the world's security information into structured, actionable intelligence - boosting productivity while reducing business risk. We’re not your average security company; we build Snyk on One Team, Care Deeply, Customer Centric, and Forward Thinking.
Why this role?
As a Senior Engineer on the Intelligence Curation Team, you will own the lifecycle of security knowledge. You aren’t just building features; you are building the infrastructure that transforms raw data into expert security intelligence. You will develop the tools that empower our security analysts and leverage AI to automate the discovery and curation of vulnerabilities at a global scale.
You will join a team that leans into:
- AI curation: We are moving beyond manual data entry into a world where LLMs and autonomous agents assist in the discovery, categorization, and enrichment of global security threats. You’ll be building sophisticated agentic systems driving high quality curation.
- Intelligence at scale: We are re-architecting our core pipelines into a high-scale, event-driven ecosystem capable of delivering real-time, high-fidelity security updates to millions of users.
- Bridging Human Expertise and Automation: We build the "Intelligence Workstation" that combines the intuition of world-class security analysts with the raw power of automated, machine-learning-driven ingestion engines.
What You’ll Do
- Build AI solutions: Work directly with AI/ML models to solve complex data classification and extraction problems, moving us toward a fully automated intelligence engine.
- Develop high-scale backend systems: Build and maintain the services responsible for collecting and creating the vulnerabilities that protect millions of developers.
- Collaborate with Security Experts: Partner closely with Snyk’s security analysts to understand their workflows and build the automation they need to stay ahead of emerging threats.
- Influence the Intel Roadmap: Shape how Snyk defines, structures, and delivers security intelligence for the next decade of software development.
What You Bring
- Excitement to work through hard problems with people. You value humility, curiosity and have a bias for action.
- The tool kit to lead software projects from idea to production - you are effective in debugging system and people problems.
- A mindset of continuous improvement - you are comfortable receiving and giving feedback to grow yourself and others.
- A team player attitude you believe that we win and fall as a team. You know how to coach people to the next level.
It’d Be Awesome If You Also…
- Have hands-on experience building modern security or intelligence tools.
- Have experience with knowledge graphs or complex data modeling, particularly in the security domain.
- You understand Open Source development and have an opinion on where supply chain attacks, and CVE scanning is headed.
