About The Role We're hiring engineers at multiple levels to join our Product Engineering team as we continue to scale rapidly and sustain strong growth.

With the majority of the internet scanned across multiple vectors daily, we confront challenges like high throughput, massive concurrency, and big data. The way we address these challenges reflects the essence of the engineers we welcome into our team.
In this role, you'll work within a cross-functional team that values iteration, collaboration, and speed. Together, we deliver customer value quickly while ensuring security and reliability at every step. We value clean code, thoughtful design, and engineers who care about the product as much as the technology it is built on. What you'll do:
  • Collaborate with a cross-functional team of engineers, product managers, and designers to create world-class products.
  • Own and development new customer-facing features end-to-end
  • Improve system reliability, scalability, and performance

  • Experience with JavaScript, React, and other web technologies

  • Proficiency with relational databases (we use Postgres)
  • Excited to help shape product features that improve user experience and drive impact
  • Able to make pragmatic trade-offs in design and delivery, balancing technical quality with business needs
What will give you an edge:
  • Experience in cybersecurity. If not, you'll just need to be willing to learn
  • Comfortable building complex applications and systems from the ground up in collaboration with cross-functional teams
  • Care deeply about user experience and are motivated by building products that make a meaningful impact for customers
  • Have a humble attitude and a strong desire to contribute to the team's success
  • We use a modern stack, including React, Go, and Kubernetes, on Google Cloud Platform, so experience with these technologies is a plus.
Why you'll love it here:
  • A strong engineering culture focused on learning, impact, and craftsmanship
  • Opportunities to work on cutting-edge problems in security, AI, and scale.
  • Regular team off-sites, collaborative professional development, and a no-ego culture.
What's in it for you:
  • Monthly Lifestyle subsidy: use this for financial, physical and mental wellbeing
  • WFH set-up allowance: to ensure you have the right environment to work in, we will help you get set-up within your first 3 months at UpGuard
  • $1500 USD annual Learning & Development allowance: to support your career development all team members will be able to expense development opportunities against this allowance
  • Generous Annual Leave/PTO allowances: time to recharge your batteries
  • 18 weeks paid Parental Leave: irrespective of parenting role
