Bugcrowd is the world’s #1 crowdsourced security company. Our award-winning platform combines actionable, contextual intelligence with the skill and experience of the world’s most elite hackers to help leading organizations solve security challenges, protect customers, and make the digitally connected world a safer place.

What you'll be doing

  • Championing our front-end efforts, building consistently-usable React components in and around our design system for consumption in our web applications
  • Making informed choices about our front-end tech stack and architecture, and bringing the team along for that ride
  • Building out an international team of front-end engineers, including both local and remote members
  • Educating and growing our engineering team, helping them understand best practice and how to most effectively work together on our front-end (as both consumers and contributors)
  • Building a platform that connects hackers around the world with companies to help make the internet more secure.
  • In addition to our external users, you'll be working on improving our platform for our amazing internal teams, such as the Application Security Engineers who review and test incoming vulnerabilities.
  • Helping design the platform by working with our product team and both internal and external stakeholders to provide an engineering and UX perspective.
  • Working with our designers to improve our design system which strives for high accessibility and standards compliance: https://bugcrowd.design/

  • Familiarity with Ruby on Rails

  • Competitive salary (for our company size, anyway)

We value the perspectives and experiences people from underrepresented backgrounds bring. We are a supportive & collaborative team who understand that reaching Bugcrowd’s potential depends on the happiness of the employee.
