Join Secure Code Warrior to create a safer digital landscape by assisting companies to secure their software through developer-led practices!
Secure Code Warrior’s mission is to establish new standards for coding that transform the ways software is created. We do this by providing the world’s leading agile learning platform that delivers the most effective secure coding solution for developers to learn, apply, and retain software security principles.

You possess well-formed opinions on software quality and apply them to your work to ensure robust, maintainable outcomes.
You will work within a modern technical stack featuring Go, Java, Node.js, TypeScript, and React. While not a requirement, exposure to Kubernetes and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools is highly valued as you grow your impact within our engineering environment.
