Our Company
Tenchi is a Cyber Security company building innovative technology focused on Third-Party Cyber Risk Management for businesses. Founded by serial entrepreneurs and supported by solid institutional investors, we are driven to disrupt this fast-growing industry.
Tenchi was created to tackle a real challenge: companies often face security risks because their third-parties don’t maintain the same level of cyber protection. This gap leaves even the largest organizations potentially vulnerable to incidents they can’t directly control. That’s exactly where we step in.
Our TPCRM SaaS solution, Zanshin, is the only global TPCRM solution that offers both inside-out and outside-in visibility - combining external attack surface monitoring with automated, continuous, and non-intrusive assessments of cloud infrastructure (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) and security controls.
Our People and Culture
At Tenchi, we build innovative technology to help companies secure their ecosystems with transparency and peace of mind. We are ambitious and purpose-driven. Our culture is rooted in intentionality, transparency, and action. We move fast, communicate openly, and invest in people who want to make an impact.
As a 100% remote company with team members across Brazil, the US, Canada, Argentina, and Spain, we embrace flexibility while solving meaningful challenges together.

About the Role
We are seeking a Backend Engineer with a solid understanding of distributed systems and a passion for building resilient applications. In this role, you will design, develop, and maintain the backend services that power our cloud security platform.
You’ll write clean, efficient Python code and interface with AWS Step Functions, Batch jobs and Athena queries. This is a great opportunity for an entry-level engineer or recent graduate who understands distributed systems and networking and wants to apply software engineering to cloud security challenges.
What will you do?

- Cloud Security Domain: Implement security rule engines, policy checks, and threat detection mechanisms within cloud APIs.
- System Maintenance: Monitor, debug, and optimize backend systems for high availability, microsecond latency, and stability.
- Collaboration: Work closely with security researchers, frontend developers, API developers and infrastructure teams to turn technical requirements into production-ready backend code.
Requirements
- Software Development: Strong proficiency in Python (object-oriented programming, data structures, asynchronous coding, testing frameworks).
- Cloud Awareness: Basic familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS preferred) and networking primitives (VPCs, Security Groups, Load Balancers).
- Education / Experience: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Security, or equivalent practical experience (0–3 years). Recent graduates with relevant project/internship experience are strongly encouraged to apply!
- Data Engineering Experience a plus, including
- Exposure to stream processing, batch processing, or data pipeline tools (e.g., Glue, PySpark, Pandas).
- Experience working with SQL databases (e.g., PostgreSQL).
- Containers & DevOps: Familiarity with Docker, CI/CD pipelines, or Infrastructure-as-Code (Cloudformation).
