Junior Backend Developer (GoLang\Java)

The best security incidents are the ones detected and prevented in advance. At Skyhawk Security, our security platform identifies exactly those incidents—at scale. We investigate our customers’ cloud infrastructures and alert them to actual incidents in near real-time, so they can be addressed before a full-blown breach occurs.

We achieve this with an advanced set of technologies like: Micro-services, Flink, Spark, Airflow, Go, Java, TypeScript, Kubernetes, React, and more.
We secure clouds – AWS, GCP, Azure, and more to come!

But our key to success is having the best people. This is where you come in.

If you have 1–2 years of development experience, preferably in Java or Go, and want to sharpen your skills in cloud security, you’ll fit right in. Experience with cloud environments is a big advantage, but not a must—we’ll help you learn.

We provide mentorship, code reviews, and opportunities to work alongside industry experts so you can grow your skills quickly.
