Lead Software Developer

Voltage Secure Data Engineering

Richmond Hill, ON, Canada (office-based)

Voltage Secure Data is the company’s data-centric encryption platform, protecting sensitive information across cloud, on-premises, and mainframe environments. The team develops the core cryptographic libraries, SDKs, and platform integrations that power the product.

Join the team that builds the cryptographic engine behind Voltage Secure Data: cross-platform C/C++ libraries and multi-language SDKs used by banks, retailers, and healthcare organizations worldwide. The platform supports Linux, Windows, macOS, AIX, Solaris, IBM z/OS, and HPE Non Stop, with SDKs for Java and C#/.NET. Most engineering work centers on the portable C/C++ core, cryptographic services, and cross‑language SDK integration.

This is a hands‑on engineering leadership role. You will write and debug production code, lead technical design discussions, mentor engineers, and help resolve complex customer and platform issues.

• Lead feature development from design through implementation and release
• Set standards for code quality, testing, and reviews
• Drive cross‑platform build and CI/CD strategy using CMake, Git Lab CI, and Jenkins
• Maintain API and ABI stability across platforms and releases
• Mentor engineers and support architectural decision‑making
• Partner with QA on unit, integration, and platform qualification testing
• Act as an escalation point for cryptographic, HSM, PKCS#11, and platform‑related defects

• Develop and review cryptographic functionality, including:
• symmetric and asymmetric encryption
• key management and wrapping
• TLS configuration and certificate handling
• message authentication and format‑preserving encryption
• Own Java and C# SDK layers, including native interoperability with the core C library
• Improve platform security posture, including FIPS 140 and post‑quantum readiness

• Support IBM z/OS integrations involving xLC/C++, JCL, SMP/E, RACF/ACF2, and COBOL/native interfaces
• Maintain HPE Non Stop platform support and customer fixes as required

• Expert‑level C/C++, C#, and Java development
• Strong systems programming background across Linux, Windows, or UNIX‑like platforms
• Experience building portable, maintainable cross‑platform software
• Practical applied cryptography experience:
• TLS/SSL
• public‑key cryptography
• symmetric encryption
• message authentication
• key management
• Experience with native interop and cross‑language SDK design
• Strong build engineering skills with CMake and CI/CD pipelines
• Technical leadership experience in code reviews, architecture, and mentoring

• PKCS#11 and HSM integration experience (nCipher, Atalla, Thales Luna)
• JVM and managed‑runtime debugging experience
• Knowledge of post‑quantum cryptography
• Payments/security standards such as EMV, PCI‑DSS, or ISO 8583
• Experience using AI‑assisted development tools effectively in production environments

• IBM z/OS development experience
• HPE Non Stop experience
• Familiarity with non‑POSIX and enterprise systems environments

• Ownership of security‑critical systems used by major enterprises
• Rare exposure to platforms such as IBM z/OS and HPE Non Stop
• Direct involvement in cryptographic and platform‑level engineering challenges
• A senior, engineering‑driven team focused on technical quality and real‑world problem solving
