Engineering Senior Full-Stack Engineer Remote

Herd Security is an agentic AI creative platform built for continuous security training and simulation. Founded in 2025, Herd helps organizations move beyond once-a-year compliance check boxes, replacing static programs with dynamic curricula that evolve alongside emerging threats without adding operational overhead. Security and GRC teams use the platform as a creative partner to translate practitioner expertise into compelling content and deploy it across the channels employees frequently use, including Slack, Teams, and LMS.

When a new threat surfaces, the platform enables organizations to shift from IT tickets or vendor requests to iterative microlessons delivered the same day. This puts the people behind security back at the center, empowering practitioner expertise, making awareness more habitual, and using every interaction to fuel a feedback loop that strengthens the human layer of defense.

We are seeking a Full-Stack Engineer to join our team and play a central role in shaping the future of our platform. This is an opportunity to take ownership of core technical decisions and build foundational systems that will scale with the company. You will work across the entire stack, from database schema design to frontend interfaces, and collaborate closely with leadership on product direction.

Our existing platform includes:

• A risk scoring engine with integrations across Okta, Google Workspace, Slack, and Microsoft Teams
• Phishing and smishing simulation capabilities with delivery tracking and behavioral analytics
• AI-powered security training delivered natively within Slack and Teams
• Workflow automation triggered by security events
• A multi-tenant architecture designed for enterprise scale

• Design, build, and maintain full-stack features from database to user interface
• Contribute to architectural decisions that will define the platform's long-term direction
• Develop and optimize integrations with third-party identity and communication platforms
• Collaborate on product strategy and help prioritize the technical roadmap
• Ensure code quality, system reliability, and performance at scale

You will help guide our direction in areas such as:

• Identity risk analysis and anomaly detection
• Risk-based automation and dynamic access controls
• Behavioral analytics using machine learning

Our backend is built with Type Script, Bun, tRPC, Express, Prisma, and PostgreSQL with Redis. The frontend uses Next.js, Tailwind CSS, and Radix UI.
