Job Details

Every day, the world gets more digital thanks to tens of millions of developers building the future faster than ever. But with exponential growth comes exponential risk, as outnumbered security teams struggle to secure mountains of code. This is where Snyk (pronounced “sneak”) comes in. Snyk is a developer security platform that makes it easy for development teams to find, prioritize, and fix security vulnerabilities in code, dependencies, containers, and cloud infrastructure — and do it all right from the start. Snyk is on a mission to make the world a more secure place by empowering developers to develop fast and stay secure.

 

 

Joining Snyk means embracing our core values: One Team, Care Deeply, Customer Centric, and Forward Thinking.

  • You’ll be accountable for co-developing the team roadmap and supporting technical direction.
  • Ensuring new team members are onboarded, effectively contributing to the expected level and supporting existing team members to do their best work.
  • Coaching direct reports through productive feedback, building on strengths and addressing areas of development.
  • Helping the team learn, adapt and improve upon agile and lean methodologies. You’ll help the team understand and maintain a balance between delivery speed and product quality.
  • You’ll be responsible for the team’s on-call process and rota, and be a point of escalation for incidents. 
  • You’ll be a key part of applying our Product Led Growth practices to identify, measure and constantly improve our platform through experimentation.
  • Partaking in hands-on coding as needed, including code reviews.

What You’ll Need:

  • Strong leadership and team management skills.
  • To excel in cross-functional collaboration and communication.
  • Possess a solid understanding of system architecture and design.
  • Demonstrate problem-solving abilities in complex technical environments.
  • A track record of delivering high-quality, scalable software solutions.
  • A Software Engineering background, with Java, TypeScript or Python programming skills.

We’d be Lucky if You: 

  • Have the ability to plan ahead and visualize the bigger picture and wider team long-term goals.
