This is a unique and exciting opportunity as we continue to expand the footprint of our groundbreaking, all-in-one cybersecurity platform. Every team member is a valuable contributor to our core SaaS product with day-to-day responsibilities covering a variety of development needs including building, maintaining, QA, and support for every aspect of the Defendify platform.

We are looking for a team player who:

  • Loves building SaaS products and platforms, and has the stripes to show they've done it before successfully.
  • Has a passion for solving problems and is eager to grow, learn, and tackle daily and long-term challenges and goals.
  • Will dig in and ask questions from users to understand requirements; make a plan; dive into an existing codebase and learn where to make changes, or where to start new code.
  • Is a good communicator who enjoys collaboration and thrives in a development culture that values clean code, automation and testability.
  • Maintains excellent knowledge of how modern web applications work, including REST API usage, application security, cloud deployment and development best practices.

  • Has been responsible for the entire lifecycle of code in multiple projects, from scratch to QA to deployment to maintenance.
  • Has experience implementing a RESTful API and an application which consumes it.
  • Is familiar with the philosophy and implementation of development automation: tests, continuous integration, cloud deployment, and frequent production releases using an Agile/SCRUM process.
  • Some DevOps experience is required.

Requirements – Technical

  • Experienced in JavaScript including ES6, await/async, linting and front-end frameworks. We use libraries and frameworks as needed, but you need to be able to write and understand plain JS. Experience with Node and Browser based environments is required.
  • Understands REST APIs and their role in application architectures. Has used and built APIs from the ground up.
  • Experience with front end development: HTML, CSS, and familiarity with the ecosystem of related technologies (SASS, DOM). In addition, Vue (or similar framework) experience and knowledge of static site generators such as Jekyll/Hugo are helpful.
  • Some relational database experience is required. Pluses include: Experiences in relational and in-memory databases (MySQL, Postgres, Redis) as well as knowledge in generic SQL.
  • Understand how to use Git(+Hub) and GitHub Flow.
  • Some experience with Amazon Web Services (AWS), Heroku, or similar services.
