Job Details

Snyk is the leader in secure AI software development, helping millions of developers develop fast and stay secure as AI transforms how software is built. Our AI-native Developer Security Platform integrates seamlessly into development and security workflows, making it easy to find, fix, and prevent vulnerabilities — from code and dependencies to containers and cloud.

Our mission is to empower every developer to innovate securely in the AI era — boosting productivity while reducing business risk. We’re not your average security company - we build Snyk on One Team, Care Deeply, Customer Centric, and Forward Thinking.

It’s how we stay driven, supportive, and always one step ahead as AI reshapes our world.

Our Opportunity

As a Senior Software Engineer at Snyk, you will play a significant role in shaping our Snyk API and Web Product. You will drive consensus with other engineers to build foundational infrastructure at scale, and work with others to ensure it is used broadly and consistently.

You’ll Spend Your Time:

  • Analyzing requirements, specifications, and technical design documents in preparation for development.
  • Develop backend components that support new or existing features.
  • Working with the different teams to discuss and implement technical solutions, and fix and identify bugs.
  • Implementing tests for any developed code.
  • Reviewing and testing teammate's code.

What You’ll Need:

  • At least 5 years of professional experience as a Backend Engineer, Software Developer, or similar role.
  • Strong experience with Python or Go
  • Strong commitment to code quality, and the value of giving and receiving feedback through code reviews.
  • Ability to deal with ambiguity, and respond with agility when requirements and priorities change.
  • An ability to lift the performance of a team through coaching and mentoring of more junior engineers.
  • Effective communicator both verbally and in writing. 

We’d be Lucky if You: 

  • An interest in and knowledge of security concepts is valued.
  • Enjoy talking with customers to identify, prioritize and solve problems iteratively and build something that they really love.
  • Feed off complex technical problems and find solutions where others see roadblocks.
