What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Full Stack Engineer position at Island?
We’re a team of hungry, high-character professionals from all backgrounds who came together to reinvent work for the modern enterprise.
And we’re always looking for world-class human beings (not resumes) to join the movement.
We’re expanding in all directions. If you want in, ask yourself these 3 questions:
- Does making iconic tech for the biggest companies on earth sound thrilling?
- Do others consider me an expert at what I do?
- Am I a quick learner, team player, and genuinely good person
If so, keep reading. This might be the opportunity both of us have been waiting for.
Most of the work is in the browser’s business logic and in the backend cloud services. Roughly 20% of the work is frontend, though this is flexible depending on the candidate’s preferences. Every engineer works on features end to end — from browser logic to backend to UI — and is expected to be comfortable switching contexts. You might spend a week deep in TypeScript fixing extension behavior, then build a React component for the Management Console, and then implement new capabilities in C# for the cloud. The ideal person is happy to work across the stack, solution-oriented rather than tech-limited, and eager to learn as they go.
Island, the Enterprise Browser, is the ideal enterprise workplace where work flows freely while remaining fundamentally secure. With the core needs of the enterprise naturally embedded in the browser itself, Island gives organizations complete control, visibility, and governance over the last mile, while delivering the same smooth Chromium-based browser experience users expect.
We’ve researched every corner of the modern enterprise. Built industry-defining tech like anti-virus software and browser isolation. Delivered products like DLP and proxies to millions worldwide.
But what we’re building now - it’s not another solution. It’s a whole new chapter for enterprise work.
The challenges, the complexity, the scale - this is bigger than everything we’ve done before. Combined.
