Security engineer

🌍 We’re taking on the crusty global cyber market, the "no-BS" security platform for devs.
In the past, only large enterprises needed to worry about security. Today,cybersecurity has become the top concern of 75% of all CEOs, from startups to enterprises.
This means more work for developers, who need to become security experts and ensure their platforms are secure. But it’s hard. The market is riddled with overcomplicated, expensive tools that aren’t fit for developers. So, we founded Aikido.

We are the no-bullsh*t security platform that developers actually like to use. One central platform that shows devs what matters and how to fix it, so they can get back to building.

Why work with us? Founded in 2022 by third-time serial founders, with $25M funding in the bank, we're dead set on getting security done for devs. This is a chance to join an all-star team early, take ownership, and push boundaries.

We're looking for a Security engineer to push our SAST product functionalities to the next level! 🛠️ You’ll be at the forefront, ensuring robust security features, reviewing and testing code, and managing projects to fix issues promptly.

• Review and test code across multiple languages 🖥️.
• Identify and fill gaps in our SAST product functionalities.
• Independently test pull requests and ensure fixes.
• Perform security vulnerability checks using tools like Semgrep.
• Manage projects to promptly address issues.

Job requirements

• Strong technical background: skilled in code review, developer communication, and breaking pull requests.
• Experience with security tools.
• Ability to work across multiple programming languages 🧑‍💻.
• Candidates must be located in or able to work within CEST timezone.

What you can expect:

• High-impact position in a fast-growing company
• Competitive salary package
• A company that sticks to its values in an open and informal atmosphere (see our culture-page on the website for more details)
• A diverse and inclusive organization that is proud to be an equal opportunity employer
• Support and budget for relocation to Ghent. Option for remote work 🌐.

You will be recruited based on competencies. Qualities of people are decisive, regardless of gender, religion, ethnic origin, age, sexual orientation, or disability.
