Jobbeschreibung

Are you a frontend engineer ready to work on genuinely cutting-edge technology and help build a brand-new UI team from the start?

My client is a rapidly scaling unicorn, now valued at over $3 billion, building a next-generation cloud security platform. Using advanced eBPF-powered sensors, they deliver real-time threat protection across modern cloud environments.

With an ambitious growth strategy, they plan to hire over 50 engineers and technical specialists in Belfast this year, building one of the most talented tech teams in the city. The UI team is brand new, so you will join at the very beginning and have a real hand in shaping how it works, what it builds and the standards it sets.
