About the Product
Secure File Gateway is a gateway that sits between a WAF and the web app backend. It ensures every uploaded file is scanned and sanitized by MetaDefender Core (via ICAP) before reaching the application; no WAF config changes needed. This solves the gap left by WAFs that don't support ICAP, or can't handle CDR-sanitized data.
What You Will Be Doing
- Design, build, and test SFG in C++ or Rust (Windows/Linux) as the transparent proxy between WAF and backend.
- Implement the core flow: intercept uploads → forward to MetaDefender Core over ICAP → return sanitized files, with low latency and high reliability.
- Build multi-threaded, high-concurrency networking components.
- Build and use agentic workflows (e.g., Claude Code, autonomous coding agents) daily for coding, testing, and debugging.
- Work within a Scrum team; collaborate with Product Management; do peer code reviews.
What We Need From You
- Strong OOP background (Java/C#), willing to learn/work in C++ or Rust.
- Solid multi-threading and network programming skills.
- Comfort with protocol/network-level concepts (TCP/IP, HTTP, proxying).
- Genuine interest in using AI tools in your dev workflow.
- Experience building or using multi-agents
- Good coding/debugging skills, strong communication, self-motivated.
What Would Be Nice If You Had
- ICAP protocol, reverse proxy / gateway experience.
- REST API design.
- Agile/Scrum, Git/Bitbucket/Jira/Confluence/TeamCity.
- DBMS (SQLite, PostgreSQL, etc.).
- Windows/Linux dev experience.
