Full Stack Developer

pWe’re making security suck less for developers. /p pSecurity tools haven’t kept up with how software is built today. They interrupt teams, slow releases, and turn security into a bottleneck instead of a capability. We built Aikido to change that. Aikido builds developer-first security products that reduce real risk without getting in the way of shipping software. We focus on what actually matters and automate the rest. /p pWe’re taking on legacy security tools teams have been stuck with, and we’re winning. If you want to help us take market share and build products developers actually enjoy using, you’re in the right place. /p pFounded in 2022 by third-time founders, Aikido has $85M in the bank and a long runway ahead. We’re building toward self-securing software. Join an all-star team. Take real ownership. Push boundaries. Build things that matter. /p pAs a full-stack developer, you’ll be working closely with the Noon team at Aikido. Noon is our new workforce security product, protecting people from AI-powered attacks such as phishing, malware and deepfakes. It brings together email protection, device protection, AI governance, and attack simulations and training in one platform. You’ll help build the core of it from an early stage. /p h3Responsibilities /h3 ul liWrite modular, testable, and efficient code using TypeScript, Node.js (Fastify) and React. /li liBuild and maintain APIs and data models on PostgreSQL. /li liDesign and implement high-availability applications. /li liDiscover, plan, write, document and maintain new features. /li liUnderstand the fundamental design principles behind a scalable application. /li liUnderstand the nature of asynchronous programming and its quirks and workarounds. /li liOptimize the product code for speed where required. /li /ul ul liReally comfortable in a very entrepreneurial environment /li liStrong problem-solver who learns fast and adapts /li liCan think along with architectural and impactful decisions /li liWilling to learn new languages when the product requires it (Rust or Go is a bonus) /li liComfortable researching and tackling hard problems and algorithms (e.g. parsing) /li liWilling to experiment (and also willing to perhaps throw away some code) /li liMedior to Senior: ul liWe are going fast and need experienced people that can hit the ground running with us. /li liYou need to be comfortable with Node.js, TypeScript and React.
