Role
Who you are
- You’ll have the perfect blend of technical skills, a passion for problem-solving and mentorship of others, and the ability to drive scalable systems within an agile startup environment
- We're looking for people who can pick a problem and solve it, without waiting for a ticket to arrive
- You’re a technical expert, with strong JavaScript, TypeScript, and CSS fundamentals and extensive hands-on experience with Angular. You have experience designing and building scalable front-end architecture
- You have a proven track record of leading on front-end projects and you’re moving your career in this direction, using your strong interpersonal skills and natural empathy to foster a collaborative, outcome-oriented engineering culture. You will collaborate with the CTO, CEO, CSMs, Sales, and Design daily
- You have an owner mindset, iterating and taking pride in owning customer-facing features from ideas to going live fast. You strive for great visuals and usability. You’ll always go the extra mile for customers and your teammates, coordinating across functions to cut through the noise and deliver the right solution to the right problem, without getting lost in the details. You are obsessive about the design and have high standards
- You thrive in the startup world, having gained experience in this fast paced, agile environment, ideally as an early engineer in a startup. You’ll recognise the need for flexibility and a hands-on approach. You don’t wait for a product manager to create a ticket, you pick it up yourself, fix it, test it, and then mentor others to do it better
- You’re passionate about sharing knowledge and championing new technologies
What the job involves
- We’re looking for an exceptional Front End Engineer to help us build and scale our product
- This is a truly exciting opportunity for someone to build the Engineering foundations of a successful early-stage startup
- Every feature that is being ideated will go through you, and you'll get first-hand exposure to what it means to build and scale a remote software startup
- Our platform integrates with a company’s tech stack (like AWS, Azure AD, Jira, etc.), automatically extracts the data needed for compliance, and creates a checklist to become and remain compliant
- We are a team of 16 (and growing!) with founders passionate about Y Combinator product principles and building a great remote culture
- You'll be a go-to person for all things 'Front End,' taking ownership and collaborating with the CTO to set technical direction. Working closely with product and design teams, you'll shape and design features for both new and existing products
- Your main responsibilities will include designing, developing, and maintaining user-facing features using Angular and TypeScript, with a focus on creating visually stunning and scalable UI components. Additionally, you'll improve the frontend architecture, prioritising pragmatic solutions suited to our current development stage
- You'll assist in spearheading hiring - working with our Head of People to scale a first-class engineering team. You’ll help to develop the existing team, providing mentorship, and enabling a culture of continuous learning and collaboration. You’ll ensure clean code through extensive code reviews. You’ll establish and promote Secfix engineering culture
- At all times you’ll live by and champion, our values:
- We are obsessed with our customers
- We build smart
- We create trust
- We are hacky
- We take ownership
- We are leaders of remote
Application process
- 20-30 min intro call with Talent team
- Take-home Task and technical presentation
- 2h final "Virtual on-site" where you'll meet the team and co-founders on Gather
- Sometimes we might split one larger interview into small separate calls, to offer you faster availability
Our take
As regulations around data protection grow in numbers and force, compliance has never been more essential for business, both for legal reasons and to build customer confidence. However, few small and medium businesses have the in-house resources needed to set up their IT security at the same level as larger companies. SecFix exists to change this, connecting with a company's tech stack to automate all processes around attaining ISO 27001 and GDPR certification.
SecFix solves two problems at once: reducing the time and cost of auditing processes and systems for certification by up to 30%, while at the same time building a company's resistance to cybercriminals and exposure to punitive fines and lost customer loyalty. It has developed a large customer base of fast-growing companies including Kertos, Satcom, and Zinc.
The company has recently raised a significant amount of investment in an oversubscribed seed funding round. It is using this capital to further develop its platform and hire additional talent. SecFix is also planning to expand into additional European markets and is well-poised to become a significant company in the security compliance space.
