Senior Software Engineer (Backend) - InsightConnect - SOAR

We are expanding our Global footprint in Prague and as we build out our Product & Engineering teams, we are looking for Software Engineers.
 

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will own a full life cycle of development and be a senior contributor on a team responsible for the end-to-end delivery of increasingly complex features that are correctly implemented and high quality.

You will act as a resource by advising and mentoring junior engineers to continue to build the technical capabilities of our teams.
