At Cvent, we’re committed to continuous learning and adaptation—AI isn’t just a tool for us, it’s part of our DNA. We’re looking for candidates who are eager to evolve alongside technology, experiment boldly, share discoveries, and help define best practices for AI‑augmented work. Through the interview process, you’ll demonstrate how you use AI to learn, iterate, and amplify your impact.

In This Role, You Will

• Shape and lead a company‑wide engineering guild focused on secure‑by‑default practices, modern SDLC patterns, and architectural consistency across our SaaS platforms.
• Design and build developer‑centric frameworks, libraries, and automation that improve system reliability, maintainability, and security—without slowing delivery.
• Work hands‑on in code (Java, TypeScript, IaC) to create reusable components, integration patterns, and platform building blocks used across engineering teams.
• Enhance CI / CD pipelines with guardrails, automated checks, and feedback loops that improve code quality, reduce vulnerabilities, and streamline developer workflows.
• Partner with product, platform, and cloud engineering teams to evolve architecture standards, ensuring distributed systems are scalable, observable, and resilient.
• Lead design reviews and provide architectural guidance across services, APIs, storage systems, and cloud infrastructure, helping teams make high‑quality technical decisions.
• Introduce modern engineering patterns and tooling, including AI‑assisted static analysis, automated detection systems, and secure‑by‑default scaffolding.
• Build documentation, best practices, and training materials that raise engineering excellence and empower developers to own security as part of system design.
• Collaborate with external partners and vendors to evaluate new technologies and integrate capabilities into platform workflows.
• Mentor engineers and influence engineering culture, promoting craftsmanship, simplicity, and scalable design across the stack.
• Help guide long‑term architectural strategy, adapting secure development practices to new technologies and emerging patterns (e.g., AI systems, microservices evolution, event‑driven architectures).
