Software Engineer (AI Code Audit)

🌍 We’re making security suck less for developers.

Security tools haven’t kept up with how software is built today. They interrupt teams, slow releases, and turn security into a bottleneck instead of a capability. We built Aikido to change that. Aikido builds developer-first security products that reduce real risk without getting in the way of shipping software. We focus on what actually matters and automate the rest.

We’re taking on legacy security tools teams have been stuck with, and we’re winning. If you want to help us take market share and build products developers actually enjoy using, you’re in the right place.

Founded in 2022 by third-time founders, Aikido has $85M in the bank and a long runway ahead. We’re building toward self-securing software. Join an all-star team. Take real ownership. Push boundaries. Build things that matter.

We’re looking for a Software Engineer in our AI Pentest team who focuses on the AI Code Auditing product. You’ll expand agent capabilities, improve our AI agent architecture, and ship improvements fast with the product and engineering teams.

Responsibilities

• Extend agent capabilities so they can find vulnerabilities more effectively.
• Build and maintain the real-world integrations and tooling used by our agents.
• Improve the reliability, performance, and accuracy of our AI Code Audit platform.
• Work with engineering to bring validated improvements into production and own features end-to-end.
