During the first 6 months of your role, you will be involved in the 0->1 journey of two of our upcoming products in our platform along with the respective product owners.

Love solving hard problems? Want to build high impact products rooted in first principles? Is coding your poetry? Join us in shaping the future of cyber security.

  • Troubleshoot complex issues, debug, and upgrade existing systems.
  • Mentor junior engineers and lead code reviews, promoting best practices and high standards.
  • Drive architectural decisions and technical strategy for backend systems.


What we are looking for:

  • 4-6 years experience in a similar role or similar working experience.
  • Advanced proficiency in PHP backend programming. Symfony preferred, or Laravel.
  • Strong understanding of system design, software architecture principles and performance optimization.
  • Experience with an event driven (subscribers/listeners), async (MessageHandlers & job queues) & distributed (load-balanced) architecture.
  • Experience with PostgreSQL database and data modeling.
  • Understanding of concepts such as Dependency Injection, ORM, data validation, error handling etc.
  • Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions (good to have).
  • Experience with Agile methodologies.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to think strategically about technical solutions.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional remote teams.
  • Demonstrated track record of delivering high-quality software products on schedule.
  • Knowledge of industry best practices in software development, security, and compliance.
  • Knowledge of application & infrastructure security - helps you stand out


Benefits of being an Astra-naut:

  • Adrenalin rush of being a part of a fast-growing company, and working on hard problems that matter.
  • Fully remote, agile working environment.
  • Good engineering culture with full ownership in design, development, release lifecycle.
  • A wholesome opportunity where you get to build things from scratch, improve and ship code to production in hours, not weeks.
  • Holistic understanding of SaaS and enterprise security business.
  • Experience with security side of things.
  • Health insurance & other benefits for you and your spouse. Maternity benefits included.
