About the Position
Our development stack includes a wide range of technologies, including Java, React, Node, Python and all things AWS. You are not expected to be an expert in them all but hopefully you have touched on the majority. While the role has visibility and influence across a number of core technologies within the platform, this person will focus on an auto scaling cloud infrastructure component, capturing security data and passing it to the dashboard for display and action by our customers. Knowledge of Kubernetes and container management is essential.
Working in Contrast means pursuing a life changing experience in the field of application security and continuous delivery. We are an exciting, young team – growing leaps and bounds each month. We write a lot of GraphQL to interact with our REST layer to improve performance and data interaction. You would get the opportunity to work on challenging and leading edge areas of the product. We write, test and deploy our code on a continuous basis – true DevOps. We spread knowledge, help mentor younger engineers and reduce operational risk through Pull Requests – you’ll do the same, and quickly learn about all of the code in your product area as a result.
