Become a D-Fender! Work with the world’s leading cyber-takeover counter-drone technology provider and shape the future of safe airspace.

As we continue to grow and innovate, we recognize the critical role that talented individuals play in shaping our core software features and driving our success in addressing the most difficult counter-drone challenges.

We are actively seeking a highly skilled Senior Software Engineer to join our dynamic team. This role is pivotal for a professional who specializes in designing and building scalable, cloud-native, multi-tenant SaaS infrastructure and backend systems.

Your primary responsibility will be to architect and develop robust backend services, high-throughput data pipelines, and scalable microservices. While your core focus will be on the backend and cloud infrastructure, you will take ownership of the full feature lifecycle—which includes a strong willingness to develop and maintain clear, efficient client-side interfaces to deliver complete end-to-end solutions.

End-to-End Ownership: You will take full ownership of the software lifecycle—from architectural design and backend coding to automated deployment and production monitoring. You will champion a 'You Build It, You Run It' culture, ensuring the high availability and observability of our multi-tenant SaaS environment.

Backend & Infrastructure Focus: Design and implement high-performance backend tasks, robust infrastructure, and high-throughput Backend-for-Frontend (BFF) layers utilizing both REST and gRPC protocols to process real-time sensor data and telemetry.

Full-Stack Delivery: Seamlessly transition to front-end development (React) when required, ensuring the backend infrastructure connects smoothly to a streamlined and user-friendly web client.

Automation & CI/CD: Drive feature delivery using Agile methodologies, replacing manual handovers with automated CI/CD pipelines that ensure seamless integration and validation from development to production.
