About the Role

We're looking for an exceptional Full Stack Engineer to join our dynamic team and drive the development of our next-generation SaaS security platform. If you are passionate about building highly secure, scalable, and performant applications from the database to the browser, and have a proven track record in the security or compliance space, we want to hear from you.

This role requires a deep understanding of modern web technologies and a commitment to writing clean, maintainable, and well-tested code. You will play a critical role in designing, implementing, and deploying features that protect our clients' most sensitive data.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and implement highly scalable backend services and APIs using Go (Golang).
• Develop, maintain, and enhance our user interfaces and frontend components using React and the Next.js framework.
• Contribute to the full development lifecycle, including planning, security-focused design, coding, testing, deployment, and monitoring.
• Ensure application security is paramount, implementing best practices for authentication, authorization, data protection, and vulnerability mitigation within our SaaS security software.
• Collaborate closely with Product Managers, DevOps, and other engineers to deliver high-quality, impactful features on time.
• Optimize the application for maximum speed and scalability.

Required Experience & Skills

• 3+ years of professional experience in full-stack software development.
• Expert proficiency in Go (Golang) for building robust, high-performance backend systems.
• Strong experience with the React framework and its ecosystem (hooks, state management, etc.).
• Demonstrated professional experience using Next.js for server-side rendering, static site generation, and routing.
• Mandatory: Significant experience in developing SaaS applications, websites, or apps specifically within the Security, Compliance, Identity, or Cybersecurity domain.
• Solid understanding of database technologies (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL, NoSQL) and writing efficient queries.
• Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and CI/CD pipelines.

Bonus Points

• Dynamic and responsive user interfaces: React's component-based architecture.
• Skilled in writing type-safe and maintainable code with TypeScript to enhance JavaScript development.
• Experience with containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Knowledge of modern security protocols and standards (e.g., OAuth 2.0, SAML, JWT).
• Contributions to open-source projects.

We offer a competitive pay and a collaborative environment where you can make a real difference in the security landscape.
