About Us
Archipelo is a software development lifecycle (SDLC) data insights platform—that increases software security, compliance, and developer productivity. Archipelo provides a historical record of all coding events to proactively identify security and compliance risks—at the earliest stages of the software development lifecycle. This approach ensures secure coding practices, identifies potential threats, maintains compliance, mitigates AI-related risks, and enhances developer productivity, enabling the delivery of safe and reliable software. The company is funded by top investors in Silicon Valley, including the first investors of Google, Twitter, Zoom, LinkedIn, and Uber. Our team has backgrounds from NASA, LinkedIn, Facebook, Amazon, AWS, Cisco, MIT, Harvard, Stanford, and Berkeley. Our company is based in San Francisco, California, but our team is all remote and globally distributed.
Description
We seek a Full-Stack Engineer to help build our next-gen security and productivity platform for developers. You’ll work across the stack—from APIs and infrastructure to web apps, browser extensions, and IDE plugins. You should be fluent in writing clean, scalable code, deploying resilient systems, and collaborating across teams. You’ll own end-to-end features that connect deeply with our backend and data layers. Experience with modern web frameworks, API design, cloud platforms, and developer tools is key. This role offers direct influence on product direction and user experience.
Who Will Love This Job
You move easily between frontend, backend, and infrastructure—designing scalable APIs on day one. You take ownership from design to deployment and value elegant solutions over ego. You’re pragmatic, impact-driven, and energized by building tools developers actually use. If you’ve crafted or dreamed of building invisible yet indispensable developer tools, you’ll fit right in.
