Senior Staff Software Engineer- Remote (US Based)

Dispel builds secure, private network infrastructure for critical industries. The people who depend on our products need reliable, auditable, and secure access to sensitive systems, and the engineers who build those products need to understand that context deeply. At IC6, you are one of those engineers.

As a Senior Staff Software Engineer, you will lead large-scale technical initiatives across software engineering, cloud infrastructure, networking, and secure systems. You’ll partner closely with engineering leadership to design, build, and evolve critical systems that directly impact customer reliability, security, and operational performance.

This role sits at the intersection of software engineering, cloud infrastructure, networking, and on-premises virtualization. You will not only write high-quality software, but also understand the infrastructure it runs on, the network layers it communicates through, and the security requirements that make customers trust Dispel with sensitive operations. Your technical decisions should balance scalability, operational reliability, customer impact, and long-term maintainability.

Engineering at Dispel is highly collaborative. Engineers who proactively solve problems, support teammates, and drive execution tend to thrive here. We move quickly, operate with high ownership, and value engineers who can navigate ambiguity while helping raise the technical bar of the organization.
