Software Engineer, Agents Governance

Glean is looking for Backend/Infrastructure engineers to build the platform that makes enterprise agents safe, discoverable, reliable, and governable at scale. You will work on agent publishing, sharing, moderation, policy enforcement, permissions, versioning, observability, and spend management. This is a distributed-systems and security-sensitive problem spanning platform infrastructure, product systems, and enterprise administration.

You will own problems from definition and architecture through production launch and operation, turning ambiguous requirements into durable platform primitives.

As a Software Engineer at Glean, Own impactful systems from design through reliable production operation.

Write clear design documents and make sound tradeoffs across security, reliability, performance, user experience, and cost.

Build well-tested backend services and platform components with strong correctness and operational guarantees.

Solve distributed-systems problems involving consistency, idempotency, retries, ordering, migrations, and safe rollout.

Partner with Product, Security, Infrastructure, and customer-facing teams to turn enterprise needs into scalable capabilities.

Make governance decisions auditable: who changed what, which policy applied, why access was allowed or denied, and what happened during a run.
