(Senior) Software Engineer
Join Hoxhunt and build a purposeful product that defends companies from cybercrime, help support the cyber skills training for 4m+ users to make the world more cyber secure - in a human centric way.
Join Hoxhunt as a (Senior) Software Engineer and help build the backbone of a human-first cybersecurity platform used by millions of people worldwide.
This is a role for a well-rounded, product-minded full-stack engineer who thrives in fast-moving environments, and wants their work to directly help customers improve their cybersecurity posture.
You’ll join a strong engineering culture built by technical founders, where quality, ownership, and continuous improvement matter.
Your Mission
Your mission is to help scale Hoxhunt’s core product platform in a way that keeps it resilient, secure, and intuitive for customers.
You turn growing complexity into clarity by building systems that support customer self-service, powerful reporting, and reliable integrations — enabling Hoxhunt to serve a rapidly expanding and increasingly diverse customer base.
You focus on impact: building the right things at the right time, with a clear understanding of how your work supports customers, the business, and long-term scalability.
Your Role
As a (Senior) Software Engineer, you are a full-fledged full-stack contributor — working on both the server and the frontend, and always thinking in systems rather than isolated features.
You work closely with other engineers, product managers, and designers to design, build, and evolve customer-facing tools and backend services. Over time, you are expected to take ownership of feature development end-to-end: from design decisions to implementation and rollout.
What You’ll Do
Build and maintain Hoxhunt’s customer admin portal used to manage users, training, settings, reporting, and integrations
Develop and evolve backend services with a strong focus on performance, reliability, observability, and data quality
Improve and maintain existing systems and third-party integrations as customer needs and scale grow
Build a resilient, scalable platform supporting multi-tenancy, advanced user segmentation, and granular access control
Enable Hoxhunt’s self-service capabilities to better serve smaller and mid-sized customers
Expand reporting capabilities that help customers understand and improve their security training outcomes
Work in an agile, iterative development cadence where priorities evolve and continuous improvement is part of everyday work
What We’re Looking For
Solid hands-on experience with Node.js, TypeScript, and React
Strong full-stack mindset, with the ability to work across backend and frontend when needed
Experience building scalable, data-driven SaaS products or working in product-focused consulting roles
Understanding of how to design secure, maintainable, and reliable systems
Comfort working in a dynamic, fast-moving scale-up environment with changing priorities
Fluent spoken and written English
Bonus Points If You Also:
Have experience with GraphQL, MongoDB, or Go
Have worked with integrations, user management, or reporting-heavy systems
Bring a strong product mindset and enjoy collaborating closely with product and design
Are familiar with agile ways of working and iterative product development
