Founding Engineer
$20M in funding. ARR doubled in the last quarter. Now building out the founding engineering team.
I'm partnering with a fast-growing cloud security start-up that's rethinking how organisations detect and respond to threats in the cloud.
Instead of relying solely on traditional monitoring tools, they're building deceptive cloud environments that lure attackers into revealing themselves, giving security teams visibility into threats that would otherwise go undetected.
With strong commercial traction and fresh funding, they're looking for a Founding Engineer to work closely with the technical founders and help shape the next generation of their platform.
What they're looking for:
- 6–7+ years of professional software engineering experience
- Strong backend development and distributed systems fundamentals
- Hands-on experience with AWS, Azure or GCP
- Proven ability to design, build and own complex systems from the ground up
- Someone who thrives in early-stage environments and enjoys solving difficult technical problems
