Job description

Software development is changing fast, and code is no longer written by humans alone. Secure Code Warrior is the AI Software Governance platform that gives organizations visibility into how their software is created, strengthens developer capability, and reduces risk before code reaches production. Built on a decade as the world's leading secure coding training platform, we're trusted by enterprises worldwide. We're a venture-backed company with offices in Australia, the United States, Belgium, Iceland, and the United Kingdom.

Join Secure Code Warrior and help us in our mission to create a safer digital landscape. We’re empowering organizations to secure their software–no matter how the code is written!

As a Full Stack Software Engineer, you are a capable and competent contributor across the full software development lifecycle. Your primary focus is delivering high-quality solutions—taking them from requirements to "done"—while actively collaborating with your peers. You possess well-formed opinions on software quality and apply them to your work to ensure robust, maintainable outcomes.

You will work within a modern technical stack featuring Go, Java, Node.js, TypeScript, and React. While not a requirement, exposure to Kubernetes and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools is highly valued as you grow your impact within our engineering environment.

• Project Delivery: Realize impact by making core contributions to project tasks and ensuring they align with business goals.
• System Design: Play a key role in driving improvements to system design and architecture, proactively identifying issues before they reach customers.
• Best Practices: Contribute to the implementation of engineering standards and best practices across the organization.
• Collaboration: Foster a culture of mutual support, knowledge sharing, and teamwork.

Backend & Systems

• Language Proficiency: Competently design and implement services with proficiency in at least one of our core backend languages: Go, Java, or Node.js.
• Scalability: Skilled at identifying potential bottlenecks and implementing solutions to improve system performance and reliability.
• Cloud Exposure (Nice to Have): Willingness to learn or existing exposure to Kubernetes and Terraform/IaC to assist in deploying and managing components.

Frontend & Experience

• User Interface: Develop responsive and efficient frontend components using React and TypeScript.
• Design Patterns: Effectively apply design principles and patterns to create robust systems that bridge the gap between frontend and backend.

End-to-End Ownership

• Lead the development of features or components from design and implementation to deployment with minimal supervision.
• Anticipate roadblocks and ensure timely delivery of impactful tasks.

Technical Leadership & Mentorship

• Support and guide junior engineers to improve their coding, architecture, and problem-solving skills.
• Conduct PR reviews and participate in interviewing to help build a talented team.
• Proactively share knowledge to help the team operate more efficiently.

Autonomy & Problem Solving

• Complete tasks of moderate scope and difficulty end-to-end with minimal supervision.
• Research potential solutions to technical challenges independently before seeking assistance.
• Contribute to architectural discussions and suggest solutions that optimize maintainability.

• Software Fundamentals: A strong grounding in engineering fundamentals and practical experience across the software development lifecycle.
• Technical Stack:
• Languages: Proficiency in TypeScript and at least one of Go, Java, or Node.js.
• Frontend: Strong working knowledge of React.
• Infrastructure (Bonus): Exposure to Kubernetes or Terraform is a plus but not mandatory.
• Collaboration: Proven ability to establish strong working relationships with peers and communicate technical concepts clearly.

You're joining us at an exciting stage of our journey, and you’re a key piece to what comes next. Expect real room to create impact and deliver on your ideas. The pace is quick and the bar is high; in return, you get genuine ownership and the kind of growth that only comes from building something that matters.

We also know you do your best work when you're rested and energized. Flexibility here runs on trust: we trust you to deliver when it counts, and we trust you to take the time you need to recharge. With teammates around the world, your hours can flex to fit your life, backed by generous leave and work-from-home options that help you make work work for you.

You'll join a tight-knit team that values humility and giving back, both to the community and to each other. Making the world a little brighter as we make it more secure is part of being a Warrior.

We live and work by the Warrior Code. It means getting feedback you can trust, shared without fear. It means no genius jerks: how you treat people counts as much as what you deliver. We do what we say we'll do, we celebrate the wins properly, and we do the right thing even when no one's watching. Come as you are, bring your best, and we'll do the same.
