🌍 We’re making security suck less for developers.
Security 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.
We’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.
Founded in 2022 by third-time founders, Aikido has $85M in the bank, a long runway ahead, and unicorn status. We’re building toward self-securing software. Join an all-star team. Take real ownership. Push boundaries. Build things that matter.
As a Python developer, you'll be working closely with the Aikido team.
Main responsibilities:
Write modular, testable, and efficient code using mostly Python and other languages.
Managing AWS and lambda deployments
Design and implement high-availability applications
Discover, plan, write, document and maintain new features
Understand the fundamental design principles behind a scalable application
Understand the nature of asynchronous programming and its quirks and workarounds
Optimize the product code for speed where required
We're looking for someone who is:
Really comfortable in a very entrepreneurial environment
Can think along with architectural and impactful decisions
Willing to learn new languages when the product requires it
Comfortable researching and tackling hard problems and algorithms (eg parsing with ASTs)
Willing to experiment (and also willing to perhaps throw away some code)
Medior to Senior:
We are going fast and need experienced people that can hit the ground running with us.
You need to be comfortable with the above mentioned languages and tech-stack.
No stranger to implementing automated testing platforms and unit tests
Fluent in English
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 their 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
Flexibility in working hours
You will be recruited based on competencies. Qualities of people are decisive, regardless of gender, religion, ethnic origin, age, sexual orientation or any disability.
