About the role

Prior experience in a fast-paced, tech environment is helpful, but we are more interested in your customer and product focusand collaborationskills than your pedigree. So if this opportunity excites you but you don’t meet the exact requirements, apply anyway!

This role is open to 100% remote work as long as you are able to overlap work hours with PST at least 3 hours a day 4 times a week.

What you’ll do

• Work directly with our users to identify where our product succeeds, and where it fails; then rapidly improve it
• Advocate for and develop intuitive, simple, robust APIs that solve a wide variety of complex problems using simple, elegant abstractions
• Adapt Semgrep to work with our users’ diverse ecosystems of code bases, build environments, and security requirements
• Ensure continual, high-availability operation of services using modern site-reliability practices, including participation in an on-call rotation
• Advise and mentor Semgrep engineers via thoughtful code reviews, planning discussions, technical documentation, and formal mentorship
• Help grow our team, by participating in the recruitment and hiring of top engineering talent

You are ideal for this role if you have

• 4 years of demonstrated experience building web applications
• Excitement about building for customers, learning their needs, iterating fast, and seeing your solutions solve their problems
• Excellent, proactive communication, both verbal and written, including a demonstrated history of crafting thorough, discoverable documentation
• Experience carrying technical projects to completion
• An experimental, data-informed approach to identifying technical requirements; at Semgrep we take a “fail fast” approach, and ship minimally viable work in order to learn quickly
• The ability to work hours compatible with the US west-coast (PST)
• The ability to come into the downtown SF office at least 3 days/week on average
