Our mission is simple: End Cyber Risk. We’re looking for a Senior React Developer to be a part of making this happen.

About the Role

The Senior React Developer is an essential contributor to the R&D organization by helping bridge the gap between UX Design and Agile Development at Arctic Wolf. They are involved in all aspects of the research, prototyping and implementation of user interfaces that solve problems for our customers. Senior UI Developers bring engineering knowledge and user context to the Agile team to help make well-informed design decisions that are technically feasible, testable, and maintainable.

Responsibilities Include:

  • Implement the visual design aesthetic, interaction design system, and front-end processes and app architecture for Arctic Wolf.

We value a culture of sharing, so every team has the opportunity to share their work with the entire department during our monthly R&D Demos. Once a year we hold a department-wide Hackathon, teaming up across all R&D teams over four days to collaborate and build cool ideas outside the normal project scope. While innovation is the focus, some of these ideas do make it into our products.
