Managed and self-hosted VPN platforms for distributed workforce and IoT security
OpenVPN operates two distinct product lines—CloudConnexa, a managed SaaS platform, and Access Server, a self-hosted appliance—both addressing secure remote access at scale. The tech stack reveals a company in transition: heavy adoption of AI coding assistants (Claude, Cursor, GitHub Copilot) paired with active projects around QA automation and intelligent network testing suggests engineering is modernizing test infrastructure while integrating AI into development workflows. Senior-heavy hiring focused in Bulgaria, combined with pain points around test stability and security-critical cloud services, indicates scaling pressure on reliability.
OpenVPN provides secure networking solutions for remote workforce access, IoT device connectivity, and application-to-application communication. The company operates in two deployment models: CloudConnexa as a managed cloud service and Access Server as a self-hosted solution deployable on-premise. The customer base spans Fortune 500 enterprises to small businesses. OpenVPN's core open-source project has driven global adoption, while the commercial products serve organizations managing hybrid cloud, remote-first teams, and edge device networks.
JavaScript, TypeScript, Java with Spring Boot, Python, AWS/GCP/Azure for infrastructure, ClickHouse for analytics, WebSockets/WebRTC for networking, and performance tools like Gatling and JMeter for testing.
Current projects include automating QA for their zero-trust network access platform, building web-based management APIs, deploying security-critical cloud services, and integrating AI-assisted development workflows alongside intelligent network testing frameworks.
