👩 💻 Senior Fullstack Engineer (Remote in EU)

🌍 About Abusix

At Abusix, we're a fully remote company united by a shared mission: to make the internet a safer place. Our small, globally distributed team spans multiple countries—from the U.S. to Europe to the Philippines—and thrives in a culture rooted in trust, ownership, and collaboration.

We've been pioneers in the network abuse management space for 15 years, back when abuse management was unknown to 99% of people. Today, we transform complex network and security data into actionable insights through our three Guardian products: real-time blocklists against email threats, SaaS tool for network abuse management, and threat intelligence to prevent attacks.

Our vision is to build a global platform where internet stakeholders collaborate by sharing relevant, real-time security data to solve abuse and cybersecurity challenges together.

🧩 The Role

As our Senior Fullstack Engineer you work remote and act as a senior technical anchor on our engineering team. In this role you're backend-leaning but comfortable across the stack, and you bring the kind of experience that raises the bar for everyone around you — through hands-on coding, opinionated reviews, and genuine investment in the growth of the engineers you work alongside. In this position you play a central role to keeping our team's velocity, code quality, and mentoring culture intact as we evolve our team structure. You report to the Head of Engineering and collaborate closely with all engineers across our different product lines.

💥 The Impact You Make in This Role

• Review pull requests across the team to maintain code quality and consistency — provide opinionated, substantive feedback that raises the technical bar and unblocks teammates quickly.

• Build backend services across all our products to deliver reliable, production-grade features — writing code that handles high request volumes without flinching.

• Lead technical design discussions to bring the team to the best solution — contributing senior judgment that shapes architecture decisions and prevents costly wrong turns.

• Investigate complex, hard-to-diagnose problems to become the team's go-to expert — turning ambiguous incidents into clear root causes and lasting fixes.

• Mentor mid-level engineers through pairing, reviews, and design conversations — helping them level up sustainably and feel supported in a fast-moving environment.

• Experiment with AI-assisted development tools to identify what actually works for the team — then roll out proven workflows that make everyone measurably more productive.

🦄 The Skills and Traits That Let You Thrive in This Role

• Solid backend engineering depth — you've built and operated production systems at scale and know what it takes to keep them reliable.

• Hands-on experience with agentic coding and AI-assisted development — you've already integrated these into how you work, not just experimented with them.

• A sharp, opinionated approach to code reviews — you ask hard questions, push for clarity, and make it count for the person on the other end.

• A genuine mentorship instinct — you invest in the people around you, not just the codebase.

• Senior engineering judgment — you can lead a design discussion, spot the tradeoffs others miss, and help a team land on the right call.

• Remote-first mindset with the self-direction to thrive in an async, distributed team.

• Exposure to cybersecurity, high-throughput data pipelines, or event-driven architectures is a bonus.

• Fluent English — clear written and verbal communication across a fully remote, international team.

• Your core values match ours: Own It, Push Forward, Be Real. Check them out below!

🎁 The Benefits

• Fair compensation according to your location.

• Meaningful ESOP — you share in what we build together.

• Additional location-based benefits (e.g. medical, dental, vision, pension, 401k where applicable).

• Annual learning and development budget to keep growing.

• Budget for your remote workplace setup or a co-working space.

🌟 What Money-Can't-Buy

• Real impact — you're not a cog; your decisions shape products used by security teams worldwide.

• A small, talented team where your voice matters and your senior judgment is genuinely valued.

• Daily use of cutting-edge tools — including Claude Code and the latest in AI-assisted engineering.

• A steep learning curve in a fast-moving cybersecurity domain.

• Flexible working hours that respect your life outside work.

• Generous PTO policy.

• Fast-paced, high-tech B2B environment where things actually ship.

✨ Our Main Values

• 🎯 Own It - Take initiative and care about results — for our customers, Abusix and your team. That starts with truly understanding what Abusix does — the threats we fight, the customers we protect, and why any of it matters.

• 🚀 Push Forward - Challenge the status quo and don't wait for permission to try something new. Failure is how we learn — we'd rather you move fast and miss than stand still and wait.

• 💎 Be Real - Treat people with respect, say what you mean, and show up as yourself. No politics, no hiding, no ego. We're honest with each other, our customers, and ourselves.

🦄 Our Commitment to "💎 Be Real" in Hiring

We value authenticity in our hiring process. During interviews, we'll share openly about both our successes and our challenges - that's how we stay true to our values. We're looking for real people, not perfect personas.

We encourage you to use AI tools responsibly for structure, clarity, and polish, but the content you submit needs to be yours. Your application should reflect your actual skills, qualifications, and experience. During video interviews, we expect you to answer based on your own knowledge and experience - no AI assistance or live coaching tools.
