Description:

We are seeking a seasoned Software Engineer for development and maintenance of large-scale, distributed web applications. In this role, you will focus on building robust, scalable systems using modern JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks and Python, while leveraging DevOps automation to manage cloud-native environments.

While the primary focus is high-level software architecture and development, our team operates in the offensive cyber space.

  • Utilize DevOps automation tools and Infrastructure-as-Code (IaaS) to deploy and manage services in commercial cloud environments.
  • Create robust CI/CD pipelines to ensure the continuous delivery of secure and reliable software updates.
  • Collaborate with security researchers to integrate engineering best practices into offensive cyber and vulnerability research projects.
  • Collaborate with users and analysts to improve tooling and mission capabilities

Position Required Skills:

  • Experience with professional software development in JavaScript, TypeScript, and Python.
  • Knowledge of building and maintaining enterprise-grade, distributed web applications and system architectures.
  • Experience with DevOps automation, cloud service providers (e.g., AWS), and Infrastructure-as-Code methodologies.
  • Knowledge of modern software engineering principles, including version control, testing frameworks, and agile workflows.
  • Experience with high-side development environments and non-attributed network configurations.

Nice to Haves

  • Experience or interest in offensive cyber operations, vulnerability research, and software reverse engineering.
  • Knowledge of Android application architecture and experience or interest in mobile vulnerability research.
  • Experience with low-level programming in C/C++ and utilizing debuggers such as gdb or similar tools.

SWE2 Qualifications:

YOE Requirement: 8 yrs., B.S. in a technical discipline or 4 additional yrs. in place of B.S.

Salary Range: $191k-$234k (Annually)
