Design and develop user-friendly security tools, focusing on frontend experiences that simplify complex data and improve threat detection workflows.
Design the platform that makes threat detection feel like a superpower. Build experiences that turn complexity into clarity.
We're looking for a frontend engineer who believes security tools don't have to feel like they were designed in 2003. You'll craft the experiences that help detection engineers stop threats faster—turning overwhelming data into intuitive workflows that actually make sense.
The Mission: Transform how security teams interact with detection tools. Your interfaces will make writing YARA rules feel as natural as writing code, make threat hunting as intuitive as web search, and make complex security decisions feel obvious.
You'll Own:
- Detection rule builders that make complex logic feel simple without sacrificing power
- Real-time dashboards that surface critical threats from billions of events
- AI-powered copilot interfaces that feel like having a senior analyst at your shoulder
- Collaborative workflows that turn isolated analysts into connected teams
- Visual query builders that make threat hunting accessible to everyone
You Bring:
- 5+ years building modern web applications that people actually enjoy using
- React.js mastery, TypeScript fluency, and an eye for performance
- Product thinking - you build features users love, not just tickets closed
- Security-first mindset - you understand why RBAC and audit logs matter
- Full-stack capability - comfortable from CSS animations to API integration
Stand Out With:
- Experience with security tools (SIEMs, SOARs) - you know why security UX is uniquely challenging
- Track record building AI-enhanced interfaces (copilots, assistants)
- Background in data visualization or complex query builders
- Understanding of detection languages (YARA, Sigma, KQL)
- Experience with real-time, high-stakes applications
Tech Stack:
- Frontend: React.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS
- State Management: Your choice - we care about results, not religious wars
- Backend: Node.js, Python (FastAPI)
- AI Integration: OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini
- Tooling: Figma, Storybook, modern CI/CD
Why This Matters: Every interface you build directly impacts how quickly threats get detected and stopped. Bad UX in security doesn't just frustrate users—it creates blind spots that attackers exploit.
The Offer:
- Remote-first with meaningful equity
- Work directly with security practitioners who use what you build daily
- Ship features that protect millions of systems worldwide
- Define the UX patterns that will shape security tools for the next decade
