Senior Backend Developer – Tel Aviv (Hybrid)

“On the road of life, there are passengers, and there are drivers. Drivers wanted.” – VW

At Axiom, we build for the drivers—the builders, the curious minds, the ones who take ownership and push infrastructure forward.

Our mission is to simplify and secure workforce access to modern infrastructure—through seamless, secure-by-default access workflows across the entire lifecycle.

We’re redefining Privileged Access Management from the ground up—purpose-built for Cloud, SaaS, Databases, Containers, and any virtualized environment. Axiom delivers secure, seamless, and scalable access that adapts dynamically to fast-moving environments. We eliminate standing privileges, enforce least privilege, and embed Zero Trust principles into every access workflow—by default.

The Opportunity

We’re looking for a Senior Backend Developer to help us expand and harden the core of Axiom’s platform. You’ll work at the intersection of identity, security, and cloud infrastructure—shipping features that directly impact how Security, IAM, and Platform teams control access at scale.

This is a hybrid role based in Tel Aviv, where you’ll collaborate closely with product, security, and design to take features from whiteboard to production—quickly and cleanly.

What You'll Do

• Design, develop, and optimize backend services that are performant, secure, and resilient
• Own end-to-end delivery of features—from design to deploy to monitor
• Architect microservices and event-driven workflows in Go and AWS
• Collaborate across engineering, product, and design to turn ideas into working software
• Improve scalability, reliability, and developer experience across the stack
• Mentor engineers and help shape engineering culture through code reviews and architectural discussions

What We’re Looking For

• 6+ years of software engineering experience, including 3+ years in cloud-native environments
• Expertise in backend systems, distributed architecture, and microservices
• Hands-on experience with Go, or strong experience in a similar language, with interest in picking up Go fast
• Familiarity with Kubernetes, AWS (Lambda, SQS, IAM), and CI/CD automation
• Solid understanding of security principles and how to build resilient systems
• High ownership mindset, bias for action, and ability to work independently on complex problems
• People who are driven to grow—both personally and professionally—and are committed to becoming the best version of themselves

Bonus Points For

• Experience in access control, IAM, or security-first products
• Background working with Graph databases or policy engines
• Building infrastructure at a fast-growing startup
• Open-source contributions or technical writing

Our Tech Stack

• Language: Go
• Infra: AWS, Serverless, Kubernetes
• Data: Postgres (RDS), ArangoDB (NoSQL)
• DevOps: GitHub Actions, Docker, Terraform, Helm

Why Axiom

• Product-led, engineering-driven. You’ll build meaningful systems—not internal tooling.
• Fast feedback loops. You ship fast, learn fast, and iterate with real customer input.
• Zero fluff. High standards. You’ll be part of a small, senior team with high autonomy.
• Trusted by modern security teams and backed by top-tier investors.

Let’s Build the Future of Access

If you’re driven by impact, love solving complex problems at scale, and want to help shape the next generation of infrastructure security—we want to talk.
