  • Build and maintain secure and scalable backend infrastructure
  • Expand functionality for Windows, macOS, and mobile platforms
  • Write automated tests and ensure high code quality
  • Collaborate with colleagues on new features and technical challenges
  • Contribute to developer workflows, documentation, and build processes

What we expect from you

  • A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in IT (or equivalent experience)
  • Motivated graduates are welcome
  • Experience in software development (preferably in Golang or willing to learn it)
  • Interest in cybersecurity and secure coding practices
  • Strong problem-solving mindset and proactive attitude
  • Able to work independently and in a team environment
  • Fluent in English (Dutch or other European languages are a plus)
  • Ambition to grow in a start-up/scale-up environment

What we offer

  • A future-proof job in a fast-growing cybersecurity scale-up
  • An attractive salary package based on your experience
  • A clear growth path towards senior or technical leadership roles
  • The opportunity to work on cutting-edge technology involving AI and cryptography
  • Flexible working environment (hybrid work possible)
  • Tailored onboarding, training, and coaching
  • The chance to help build a product active across the European market
  • Work location in Antwerp, easily accessible by car and public transport

Are you looking for a role where you don’t stand still, but continuously learn and truly make an impact on digital security?
Then this is the perfect moment to join a company with a strong future vision.

We look forward to receiving your application.
