What the job involves

- Take ownership of tasks that improve our security automation and strengthen our product security pipelines
- Proactively explore the use of AI for vulnerability detection and remediation
- Continuously learn and share knowledge about how vulnerabilities apply in our specific product context
- Support the team by enhancing our services with software engineering solutions
- Collaborate closely with stakeholders across the product department and gain broad exposure to how a growing SaaS company operates

Our take
With modern teams spread across offices, countries, and time zones, companies need reliable ways to keep everyone connected. Enter Staffbase, the first AI-native employee experience platform, that delivers an employee app, intranet, email, SMS, digital signagfee and Microsoft 365 integrations all in one place.
With more than 2,000 customers worldwide, including Adidas, Toyota, DHL, and Sephora, Staffbase is helping organisations build stronger, more aligned workplaces. Its tools make communication simpler, and collaboration easier, by giving people the information they need quickly. One notable innovation by the company was "Employee AI", which is built on trusted data and designed to make AI genuinely useful for every employee.
With such strong momentum, industry recognition, and a partnership with Microsoft's Azure OpenAI Service, Staffbase is very much ready for the future. It continues to roll out new features: like a mobile-first AI assistant that helps employees complete tasks, smarter content governance, and prompt-based tools to help teams create high-quality content faster.
