Senior Python Engineer

Our client is a US firm setting up a development centre in Dublin. They have an excellent Job opportunity for an experienced Python Software Engineer. They provide products and services that protect commercial entities and governments from threats emanating from the dark web. This is a perfect opportunity to join the Dublin team at the outset and make a significant contribution.

We're undertaking unprecedented work at the company. Our challenges are at the forefront of cyber intelligence, and the problems we’re solving demand a certain kind of mentality employing both traditional and non-traditional methodologies. We’re a group of tinkerers, white-hat hackers, and puzzle-driven engineers. Our office encourages outside-the-box thinking, experimentation, and open collaboration. Overhear a problem that you want to help solve? Speak up, and you’ll be involved. Discover a new technology that will make all our lives easier? Present it to the team, and lead its implementation.

Challenges aside, we take time to decompress, remove ourselves from work, and mellow out as a team. Stopping to smell the roses is pretty much a prerequisite around here; it keeps us happy as individuals and promotes a healthy and empowering tight-knit culture for our team.

You’ve heard a little bit about us; now we’ve got some questions for you:

1. Do you want to have a direct impact in making the world a safer place?

2. Do you want to help solve complicated, real-world problems that require your sleeves to be rolled up well past your elbows?

3. Do you like to tackle difficult challenges alongside a team of talented and intrepid colleagues?

4. Do you like to have fun in a supportive, team-driven environment?

If you answered "no" to any of these questions, we won’t hold it against you, but we're probably not a fit.

If you made it past that peer-into-your-soul interrogation with all “Yeses”, then congratulations! You nurture an altruistic streak, you don't shy away from an uphill battle, and you like to have fun alongside like-minded people. Us too!

We’re going to need people like you to help develop our cutting edge data delivery and analysis platform. There’s a tremendous amount of work for us on the road ahead, and we’re moving at ludicrous speed, so we’re looking for a comrade-in-arms to jump in and join our team trailblazing the Deep & Dark Web.

If this sounds appealing, then we'd be very excited to hear from you.
