About the Role:
Are you an energetic and talented Senior Full Stack Developer who loves tackiling complex challenges? Do you thrive in a fast-paced startup environment and want to be part of an innovative team? If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you to join a growing startup!
At Lastwall, they’re revolutionizing the cybersecurity industry and seeking a skilled Senior Full Stack Developer with a passion for cutting-edge technologies.
