Arctic Wolf, with its unicorn valuation, is the leader in security operations in an exciting and fast-growing industry—cybersecurity. We have won countless awards for our excellence in security operations and remain dedicated to providing an industry-leading customer and employee experience.
Our mission is simple: End Cyber Risk. We’re looking for a Developer to be a part of making this happen.
About the Role
We are seeking a highly talented Developer who will focus on the development of features and services for a team that is consolidating common services, reducing duplication and accelerating downstream R&D teams. You will be a key member of the Core Platform Services team responsible for the Access Control Platform, which is critical for Arctic Wolf Networks to deliver world-class security operations at scale to global customers.
Some of your day-to-day responsibilities will be:
-
Architect and develop well-designed, testable, efficient, secure code.
-
Conduct research to determine the best possible solutions.
-
Document research findings and demonstrate your knowledge with review meetings.
-
Participate in the full software development life cycle including continuous integration and deployment.
We value a culture of sharing, so every team has the opportunity to share their work with the entire department during our monthly Platform R&D Demos. Once a year we hold a department-wide Hackathon, teaming up across all R&D teams over four days to collaborate and build cool ideas outside the normal project scope. While innovation is the focus, some of these ideas do make it into our products.
About you
You enjoy solving technical challenges and care about writing quality code that is maintainable. Working collaboratively in cross-functional teams is your thing and you can confidently articulate your ideas to others.
At a minimum, you should have:
-
Bachelors or advanced degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering or related field.
-
Programming experience with one of Golang, Java, C++, or an equivalent advanced object-oriented language.
-
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
-
At least 2 years work experience as a software developer.
Additionally, it would be great if you had:
-
Backend development experience working on scalable, high availability services.
-
Experience with AWS technologies.
-
Experience with Kubernetes.
You are not required to be an expert in any of these, but you should be excited by the opportunity to learn new things and comfortable with coming up to speed quickly. You’ll receive all the training you need during our onboarding process and through additional training on the job.
