About r2c
Our mission is to make world-class software security available to everyone. This means building program analysis tools that are open source, easy to use, powerful, and fast. It also means building a team with security expertise and a passion for great developer experiences. Most of all, it means working with honesty and respect in a diverse community of dreamers and builders. We’ve redefined static analysis tooling by committing to all of these, and turned our project, Semgrep, into an essential safeguard for code at Snowflake, Dropbox, and more.
About the role
As a software engineer at r2c, you’ll join our mission by building a new category of security tools — indispensable, easy-to-use applications that developers will use to secure their work. You will be joining a team that is directly responsible for the open-source Semgrep tool: https://github.com/returntocorp/semgrep, and will ship features that make it easier for developer teams to integrate Semgrep into their existing workflows.
Along the way, you will work with a dedicated group of full-stack, backend, and infrastructure engineers, as well as security researchers and program-analysis developers. You’ll learn from and meet with developers and security professionals at organizations ranging from single-person startups to social-media giants. You will attend lunch and learns from all over the company – learning about backend, infrastructure, and full-stack paradigms as well as sales and product ideas. And, as a member of our team, you’ll be a part of the decisions that make an early-stage startup successful. Every feature you build will have an impact on our users’ lives and your own. We’re excited to go on this journey with you.
