About the Role: 

You’ll be working as a software developer on our Security Services & Customer Experience (S2CX) Team, responsible for delivering the cloud-based software that helps solve the real-world security problems that IT professionals face. We develop the internal tools used by the security services team to keep our customers safe and informed, as well as the external web applications used by our customers. Our goal is to share the value Arctic Wolf provides to our customers and to improve and scale the abilities of our security engineers.

Senior developer leads by example, shares their experience with others to guide the team to success, and mentors others to grow their needed skills.

Responsibilities: 

• Participate in the full software development life cycle.
• Build well-designed, testable, efficient, secure code.
• Implement test cases for new features, showing others by example good patterns.
• Produce specifications and determine operational feasibility.
• Document and maintain software functionality.
• Contribute to the growth and mentorship of other team members
• Suggests learning and new skill development for the team, supporting others as needed.

We value a culture of sharing, so every team has the opportunity to share their work with the entire department during our monthly R&D Demos. Once a year we hold a department-wide Hackathon, teaming up across all R&D teams over four days to collaborate and build cool ideas outside the normal project scope. While innovation is the focus, some of these ideas do make it into our products.

Skills and Experience: 

You’re an experienced software developer who enjoys solving complex technical challenges with little to no guidance. You care about writing quality code that is maintainable. Working collaboratively in cross-functional teams is your thing. Colleagues look to you for guidance on software development best practices.

Here are some of the core technologies we use and teach across our S2CX teams. You should have some experience in one or more of these, or similar technologies:

• Python/Django
• Go
• React/Typescript
• AWS
• Git
• Docker
• Kubernetes

In addition, you may have demonstrated leadership experience from previous projects, regardless of title held. Even if you haven’t worked with all of our specific technologies, you bring a diverse knowledge base that you use to help the team solve complex technical problems. You have comprehensive knowledge of software development practices, and mastery over writing and debugging code.

You’ll receive all the security training you need during our onboarding process and through additional training on the job.

Interview Process:

The interview process is approximately as follows:

• Phone pre-screening: A recruiter and a R&D manager will contact you to briefly discuss your work history and provide an overview of Arctic Wolf. Approximately 30 minutes.
• Technical assessment: A recruiter sends you a link to a straightforward technical assessment that is relevant to the role you are applying for. Approximately 1 hour.
• Face-to-face interviews: Several team members conduct two interviews to learn more about you and conduct a technical review based on the assessment completed. Be prepared to collaborate on a technical problem and talk more about past projects and your career goals. Approximately 1.5 hours combined for interview.
• Final Review: R&D Director or Manager for an interested team will connect to describe the team, projects and ensure a final fit with the team.
