Cybersecurity threats are growing more sophisticated every day. Organizations face a noisy, complex risk landscape where employees are often the first and last line of defense. At Hoxhunt, we believe the way to fight back is by building products that don’t just react to attacks, but help people and companies build resilience in the face of them.
That’s where you come in.

HOW YOU WORK

• You care about making an impact and take ownership of your work from idea to execution.
• You focus on delivering real value — not just writing code, but solving the right problems.
• You are comfortable with change and can adapt while keeping momentum in the right direction.
• You think critically, break down complex problems, and enjoy working through solutions with others.
• You are curious by nature and always looking for ways to grow and improve.

YOUR ROLE

You will join a startup-like team inside one of Europe’s fastest-growing cybersecurity scaleups, where engineers play a defining role in shaping the product. From day one, you will lead the architecture evolution and delivery of high-impact systems.
You’ll operate comfortably at system scale, while keeping a product mindset. You’ll be a key technical contributor for the team, mentoring others through example, driving technical direction, and raising the bar — all while staying hands-on and focused in shipping product improvements. You’ll also influence architecture and have impact across Hoxhunt engineering.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Own end-to-end architecture and delivery of high-throughput, event-driven services and APIs.
• Design, plan, and ship resilient features that scale — security, performance, and reliability in mind.
• Co-lead technical design and reviews, define engineering standards, and raise the bar — while helping the team ship with quality and speed in mind.
• Improve how we work: evolve processes, collaboration, tooling, observability, and automation.
• Partner with product to turn customer problems into simple, world-class solutions.
• Design a platform to transform noisy, messy, constantly changing security signals into actionable insights.

SKILLS YOU NEED TO SUCCEED IN THIS ROLE

• 8+ years building and operating backend services at scale, especially distributed systems and event-driven architectures.
• Extensive full-stack experience, with particular expertise in distributed messaging and streaming systems such as Kafka or Pub/Sub, and relational databases.
• Strong API and data modeling skills.
• Hands-on expertise with cloud infrastructure, containers, and IaC.
• Proven track record mentoring engineers and raising the technical bar across a team.
• Familiarity with our tech stack: TypeScript, React, NodeJS, GraphQL.
