Eye Security is a European scale-up providing cyber security with embedded cyber insurance to SMBs. The company operates a proprietary Open XDR (eXtended Detection Response) platform that centralizes security data from multiple leading cyber security products, enabling security experts and automated systems to scale operations across hundreds of customers.
You will join the Agentic SOC team as a Senior Software Engineer, working in a small, full-stack team of 2–3 engineers organized around a mission-driven stream. The team's goal is to build LLM-powered agents that augment security analysts by automating repetitive investigation and triage work, freeing humans to focus on judgment-heavy decisions.
Key responsibilities:
- Own features end-to-end as Feature Lead: scope problems, coordinate team work, make technical decisions, and ship to production with minimal supervision.
- Design and deliver LLM agents integrated into SOC workflows, including tool design, prompt and context engineering, evals, and guardrails. Balance accuracy, cost, latency, and autonomy trade-offs.
- Lead technical design discussions within your stream and influence architecture and standards beyond it. Set the bar for code quality, testing, and documentation.
- Ground engineering decisions in outcomes; push back when rationale is unclear and propose simpler or faster paths to business results. Stay close to security analysts and customers.
- Mentor engineers on your team and across the stream through pairing, code review, and design feedback. Act as a multiplier.
- Participate in hiring: interview candidates, shape the bar, and support onboarding.
- Contribute to a psychologically safe, outcome-oriented team culture. Lead by example in incidents and high-pressure moments.
- The role is hybrid, based in Berlin or The Hague (Netherlands), with a commitment to travel to the office twice per week.
Requirements:
- 5+ years of development experience, including meaningful full-stack exposure. Comfortable working across backend and frontend layers and picking up new technologies independently.
- Depth in at least one technical area and broad competence across the stack. Demonstrated experience designing and shipping systems where performance, security, reliability, and maintainability all mattered.
- Experience with strongly typed languages (TypeScript, Java, .NET, PHP, or similar). The team operates in Go and React; experience with strongly typed languages is valued as a foundation.
- Hands-on experience building LLM agents with evidence of real-world utility. Must have built and shipped at least one non-trivial LLM-powered agent or agentic workflow in production or as a side project with real users. Ability to speak concretely about design choices around tool use, context and state, evals, failure handling, autonomy, cost, and latency.
- Comfortable using AI coding tools as part of daily development workflow.
- Track record of raising the level of engineers around you through mentoring, code review, and design feedback.
- Strong communication skills. Ability to translate technical trade-offs for engineers, product managers, and leadership. Writes designs and decisions in a way others can build on.
- Knowledge of secure coding practices and secure development principles.
- Fluency in English (required).
