The Role
As a Senior Software Engineer on Bitwarden’s Privileged Access Management (PAM) team, you will lead the design and development of our next-generation privileged access platform. You'll own critical gateway services, terminal access protocols, and auditing/enforcement at the intersection of security, scalability, and user experience.
In alignment with our modern True Ownership model, our engineers are "T-shaped" professionals who own their services end-to-end—from initial design and secure development to automated testing, deployment, and operational health in production. This role offers unique opportunities to build secure-by-default patterns and make significant contributions to our open-source security ecosystem.
This is an all-remote team and we’re looking for someone located in the US. We do not offer visa sponsorship at this time.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- End-to-End Delivery: Support Bitwarden goals by designing, developing, testing, deploying, and operating secure, performant gateway controls, audited terminal logins, and session recording mechanics for our PAM product line.
- Decoupled Architecture: Maintain strict service boundaries and design resilient APIs that allow the PAM platform to operate as an independent, decoupled tenant on our core platform infrastructure.
- Upstream Collaboration: Partner closely in a co-located, cross-functional "Embedded Trio" (Product, Design, and Engineering) to rapidly design and validate technical solutions prior to code implementation.
- Automated Quality: Eliminate manual testing barriers by building and maintaining robust automated test suites, integration harnesses, and CI/CD pipelines for your team's services.
- Operational Stewardship: Own the operational health, performance, and reliability telemetry of your services in production, proactively participating in sustainable on-call rotations and postmortem analyses.
- Documentation: Build and maintain high-quality internal architecture specifications, API contracts, and external open-source developer documentation.
WHAT YOU BRING TO BITWARDEN
- Overall Experience: 1-4 years as a Software Engineer
- **Technical Stack:**Strong proficiency and experience in AI-Led Development in C# / .NET, Rust, or TypeScript.
- Security Domain Expertise: Practical experience designing or implementing secure gateway architectures, reverse proxies, and session proxying (SSH, RDP, or HTTPS).
- Identity & Auditing: Understanding of Identity and Access Management, key-rotation protocols, and real-time audit logging systems.
- T-Shaped Engineering Mindset: Practical experience with containerized environments (Docker/Kubernetes), automated test frameworks (unit, integration, and end-to-end), and SRE/observability tools (APM, alerting, and telemetry dashboards).
- Secure Coding: Familiarity with zero-trust and zero-knowledge security architectures, encryption standards, and threat-modeling methodologies.
- Collaborative Spirit: A highly collaborative and adaptable mindset, excited to work in rapid, outcome-driven feedback loops.
- Open Source Passion: Excitement and enthusiasm for open source, developer advocacy, and building a more secure internet.
- Problem-Solving: Excellent problem-solving skills—valuing written, clear documentation and using data to make technical decisions.
