What you’ll be doing…
As a member of the development team and you will contribute to the design, development, testing and operational maintenance (DevOps model) of the software owned by the team.

These are sophisticated problems in data transfer and analysis and ultimately, you’ll deliver complex solutions for a security as a service platform which is used by thousands of customers all around the world!

* Follow Agile ceremonies within the team and provide comprehensive feedback on the development process, striving for its continuous improvement
* Create efficient and elegant solutions using leading-edge technologies
* Participate in passionate debates and discussions with specialists from across the company
About you…
This team is working on some very interesting challenges and predominately focussed on C, so we’re mainly looking for strong experience there. Other things we’re looking for include experience with -
* Investigating system and application performance issues, e.g. using tools such as DTrace, SystemTap, gdb, mdb, Valgrind, etc.
* Secure programming
* Writing functional and unit tests
* Working in a Unix/Linux environment and the command line
Other than that, if you have any experience building scalable and fault-tolerant services in a multi-tenant/SaaS environment as well as any experience with functional programming that would be great. In an ideal world, you’d also have a strong understanding of TCP/IP stack and SSL/TLS as well as experience developing and managing large deployments of services at the edge in physical or cloud environments, if so then we’d love to hear from you!
Next Steps?
We are looking for someone with a passion for what you design and build, with a strong sense of ownership. While we see great value in bringing people in with specific skills, we also realise that sometimes your background may not perfectly overlap with what is listed.
