Job Description:

CloudLinux is a global remote-first company. We are driven by our principles: do the right thing, employees first, we are remote first, and we deliver high-volume, low-cost Linux infrastructure and security products that help companies to increase the efficiency of their operations. Every person on our team supports each other and does what we can to ensure we all are successful.

We are looking for a talented Go Developer / Security Researcher to join our ELS team! 

Endless Lifecycle Support (ELS) enables organizations to continue securely using Linux distributions and software languages that have reached the end of life or no longer receive standard security support – delivering vulnerability patches for unsupported versions of CentOS, CentOS Stream, Ubuntu, Debian, Oracle Linux, PHP, Python, and Spring software development framework.

As our Go Developer / Security Researcher, you’ll be joining a dedicated research team responsible for delivering security patches - an essential part of our service. You’ll play a critical role in analyzing vulnerabilities and threats, backporting patches, and expanding coverage for supported applications and plugins.

You will be responsible for:

• Analyzing new security vulnerabilities in open-source Go applications and frameworks.


• Backporting upstream patches to fix vulnerabilities in earlier versions.


• Researching new trends in exploitation techniques and malware approaches, and developing mitigation strategies.


• Increasing the coverage of supported Go applications and plugins, including components from the Kubernetes and cloud-native ecosystem.

 

Your work will directly impact the safety and credibility of millions of developers worldwide. That’s why we value attention to detail and a high standard of quality in everything you do.

Requirements

To be successful, you should have:

• Good knowledge of Go.


• 4+ years of relevant experience as a Software Developer, Security Researcher, or a similar role.


• Proven experience in code testing (e.g. unit, integration testing).


• Experience with Git, Jenkins/Gitlab for CI/CD.


• Upper-intermediate or higher level of English.

 

Nice to have:

• Understanding and knowledge of the security vulnerabilities life cycle.


• Experience with Kubernetes.


• Hands-on experience in researching vulnerabilities within Go applications.


• Experience contributing to or maintaining open-source Go or Kubernetes-related projects.

 

Benefits

What's in it for you?

• A focus on professional development.


• Interesting and challenging projects.


• Fully remote work with flexible working hours, that allows you to schedule your day and work from any location worldwide.


• Paid 24 days of vacation per year, 10 days of national holidays, and unlimited sick leaves.


• Compensation for private medical insurance.


• Co-working and gym/sports reimbursement.


• Budget for education.


• The opportunity to receive a reward for the most innovative idea that the company can patent.
