Our Mission

KeyCaliber’s mission is to advance the capabilities of security, IT/infrastructure, and risk programs in a meaningful and cost-effective way. We have years of experience defending networks and quantifying cyber risk so we understand that organizations can be extremely complex, implementing risk reduction measures can be immensely challenging, and cyber attackers can be very sophisticated. We are here to make the fight not just manageable but winnable.

Our Priorities

Extraordinary products are built by extraordinary teams so we focus on recruiting and developing amazing talent. We value diversity, individuality, creativity, and teamwork. We have a supportive, collaborative environment where everyone’s voice is heard and new ideas are encouraged.

Careers

Full Stack Software Engineer

At KeyCaliber, we are an early stage company doing big things to advance cybersecurity programs in meaningful ways. You will work side by side with a team of industry veterans who possess decades of experience defending networks and quantifying cyber risk. Using cutting edge technology, data visualization, and advanced machine learning, we are empowering organizations to prioritize their most precious cybersecurity resources. We are here to make the fight not just manageable but winnable and we need someone like you to be a part of our mission! 

We are looking for a Full Stack Software Engineer who has experience working in the various stages of developing an enterprise web application to take complete, end-to-end ownership of delivering value across the stack. The ideal candidate is one who is self-driven, excited to work with new technologies, and can help us make rapid progress on improving our product and delighting our customers. While your primary responsibilities will be in building out our product’s set of capabilities, you will also get the chance to develop your API development, DevOps, and data engineering skills and work some of the most interesting data sets in cybersecurity. This is a great role to make a big impact on a product that is already helping organizations address some of their hardest cybersecurity challenges.

What You Will Do

  • Work across the full web application stack from database interactions, to REST API development,
    to frontend feature development. Specifically with Python and React.js.

  • Extend our product in creative and pragmatic ways to deliver software that will solve customer
    problems.

  • Experiment quickly based on feedback about is and isn’t working helping the team iterate towards
    the right solution

  • Maintain high standards of code quality and thoughtful application design and incorporate solid
    coding practices (e.g. peer code reviews, automated testing) and go out of your way to reduce
    complexity

  • Document new features and communicate technical concepts or concerns to the team, giving
    regular updates in a fast-paced startup environment

What We’re Looking For

We realize that there is rarely a “perfect candidate” for any role and value finding the right person with a great background to hit the ground running.

  • 2+ years of experience developing full stack web applications

  • Experience with Python and a modern javascript framework like React.js

  • An understanding of relational databases

  • Excellent debugging, troubleshooting and optimization skills

  • Experience with GitHub and using source control with a team

  • Eagerness to experiment, learn new skills, and take on different kinds of tasks as they arise. This is a great environment to learn that new skill - data engineering pipelines, DevOps, or ML model development.

  • Strong communication skills and are proactive in your updates to the team. You document things well enough to be able to take a vacation and leave your team in great shape

We would also be thrilled if you meet any of the following qualifications, but they are definitely not required:

  • Familiarity with data processing technologies like Spark

  • Familiarity with cybersecurity concepts and terminology

  • Understanding of authentication and security concepts as they relate to web application development

  • Understanding of containerized applications
