At HackerOne, we embrace a Flexible Work approach, enabling our team members to work remotely while maintaining productivity and collaboration. We are seeking candidates located in London and the surrounding metropolitan areas, to facilitate occasional in-person interactions as needed.

What You Will Do

Your day will start with a warm welcome online and get your tools to start!
Your first 30 days will be focusing on getting to know our HackerOnies. You will join your new squad and be onboarded – get to learn the technology stack (Ruby on Rails + GraphQL + ReactJS + many more).
Within 60 days, you will have committed a bunch of code to our repositories and will start developing a knack for being a fast and effective software engineer on our codebase.
Within 90 days, you will start getting ready to lead your first project. You will have branched out and talked to sales, marketing, and various other functions, and you will have developed a good sense of cross-functional collaboration and communication.
Beyond 90 days, you will be a fully-fledged software engineer. By that time you will be able to understand the business value of our products and features, and the needs of our customers, and you can translate feature requests into simple, but robust engineering (or non-engineering) solutions.
