🌍 We’re making security suck less for developers.
Security tools haven’t kept up with how software is built today. They interrupt teams, slow releases, and turn security into a bottleneck instead of a capability. We built Aikido to change that. Aikido builds developer-first security products that reduce real risk without getting in the way of shipping software. We focus on what actually matters and automate the rest.
We’re taking on legacy security tools that teams have been stuck with, and we’re winning. If you want to help us take market share and build products developers actually enjoy using, you’re in the right place.
Founded in 2022 by third-time founders, Aikido has $85M in the bank and a long runway ahead. We’re building toward self-securing software. Join an all-star team. Take real ownership. Push boundaries. Build things that matter.
We're looking for a Software Engineer focused on runtime security. You'll build new security capabilities for Kubernetes, Linux hosts and cloud environments, research emerging technologies and attack techniques, and ship end-to-end product features together with the product and engineering teams.
Responsibilities
Design and build new runtime security capabilities across Kubernetes, Linux hosts and CI/CD environments.
Develop features that help customers detect, investigate and understand runtime threats.
Research emerging attack techniques and security technologies, and translate them into practical product capabilities.
Build reliable, Go services that power Aikido's runtime security capabilities.
Collaborate closely with customers to understand real-world threats and continuously improve our product.
Contribute wherever needed across Aikido, from runtime security to Kubernetes, cloud integrations and developer tooling.
