About this role
Kaseya is looking for a Staff Software Engineer to take on hands-on technical leadership of Java-based SaaS platforms and shared backend services. You'd own the design and delivery of distributed systems and event-driven applications, serving as the technical authority for critical platform capabilities from initial architecture through production operation. This role requires deep involvement across the full lifecycle—from technical design and implementation of core components to production troubleshooting and operational improvements—while also influencing broader technical decisions and mentoring other engineers.
The position demands at least eight years building production SaaS or enterprise platforms, with five-plus years specifically developing and operating backend services in Java. You'll need proven experience as a technical owner of production services, designing distributed systems on major cloud platforms, and leading technical initiatives that span multiple services or teams. Preferred experience includes Spring Boot and related frameworks, cloud-native or microservices architectures, relational databases, platform modernization work, and familiarity with AI-assisted development tools.
This is an in-office role based in Miami, suited for someone who thrives on solving complex systems problems, collaborating across engineering and product teams, and establishing engineering standards that scale. You'd be joining a company managing over 15 million endpoints globally, with the scope and technical depth to match that scale.
