Welcome to the future of cloud networking and security!

Cato Networks is the first company to converge enterprise networking and security into one centralized and global service that is delivered by cloud. It is led by networking and security pioneer Shlomo Kramer (Check Point, Imperva) and early investor (Palo Alto Networks, Exabeam, Trusteer and more). Cato’s unique technology inspired a brand-new product category, later named “SASE” by Gartner and a market expected to reach $28.5 billion by 2028.

This is your opportunity to get on the rocket ship and join a company that is building a cutting-edge enterprise network and secure cloud platform, and is on a fast track to becoming the worldwide market leader – don’t miss it!

This team is responsible for adapting and extending Cato’s platform to support new use cases, customers, and growth models, while maintaining the robustness and scale of Cato’s cloud-native architecture.
  • In this role, you will design and build backend systems that power new product capabilities, data-driven insights, and platform extensions. You will work on highly scalable services that process, analyze, and expose data across large, distributed networks, and collaborate closely with multiple teams to turn product vision into production-ready solutions.

End-to-end development of backend services, from large-scale data processing to APIs and web-facing interfaces

Designing and implementing scalable platform capabilities that support new product growth and expansion initiatives

Building reliable, high-performance systems for collecting, aggregating, and analyzing statistics across multiple networks

Working closely with product management, research, and automation teams to define and deliver new capabilities

Researching, evaluating, and adopting new technologies to accelerate product evolution

Collaborating with multiple development teams to integrate new solutions into the existing platform

Requirements:

6+ years of experience in backend development (Java, Go, Play Framework, Spring Boot, or similar)

Strong experience with both relational and NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis, etc.)

Proven experience building and operating high-scale, production-grade SaaS microservices

Solid understanding of software engineering principles, system design, and scalability

Experience designing and implementing secure, enterprise-grade systems

Hands-on experience with CI pipelines and service-level testing and monitoring

Frontend experience with React and TypeScript – an advantage
