We are looking for a Full Stack Developer who functions like a “Product Engineer”—someone who doesn’t just write code to tickets, but understands the why behind the product. You will be a founding member of our AI-driven evolution, moving with the urgency of a startup and the precision of a world-class security firm.
This is a high-impact, hands-on role focused on velocity and innovation. You will architect and ship production-ready software that integrates LLMs and Generative AI into our core security stack. You will work directly with our C-suite and a lean team of veteran developers to turn ambitious ideas into reality.
Core Responsibilities
- Ship at Velocity
- Rapidly prototype and deploy new features, moving from whiteboard concept to production-ready code in days, not months.
- Architect for Scale
- Design and implement scalable systems that handle massive data throughput without sacrificing development speed.
- Full-Stack Ownership
- Take complete end-to-end ownership of projects, from low-level backend performance (Go/C) to intuitive frontend experiences (Angular).
- AI Integration
- Build and refine AI-powered features using LLMs, LangChain, and PyTorch to give our customers an “unfair advantage” against cyber threats.
- Eliminate Friction
- Identify bottlenecks in our engineering lifecycle and implement tools/processes to improve overall team velocity.
- Collaborative Innovation
- Partner with C-level leadership to translate high-level business goals into technical roadmaps.
Key Candidate Attributes(The “Ideal Fit”)
You are a polyglot developer who is “tool-agnostic” and cares more about solving the problem than the specific language used.
- Experience
- 4+ years of experience building and deploying complex systems within AWS environments.
- The AI Edge
- Hands-on experience building with LLMs and GenAI frameworks (LangChain, PyTorch, or similar). You understand how to prompt, fine-tune, and integrate AI into functional software.
- Polyglot Proficiency
- You are comfortable working across a diverse stack:
- – Frontend: Angular / JavaScript / TypeScript.
- – Backend/Systems: Python, Java, Go, or C.
- – Data: Strong SQL skills and experience with high-performance data structures.
- Product Mindset
- Proven track record of building complete systems. You understand how the frontend interacts with the API, and how the API interacts with the database/cloud layer.
- Executive Communication
- The ability to explain complex technical trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders and C-level executives.
- The “Startup” DNA
- A solutions-oriented mindset with a high degree of independence. You don’t wait for permission to fix a problem.
