Eye Security is providing cybersecurity with embedded cyber insurance solutions for organizations in Europe. Headquartered in the Netherlands, we are already over 170 FTEs and continue to grow internationally.
We combine cutting-edge technology with hands-on expertise to detect, respond to, and recover from cyber threats in real time. Our team brings together talent from intelligence, military, tech, and consulting backgrounds — all united by a shared mission: to make enterprise-grade cybersecurity accessible to every business, not just the big players.
At Eye, you’ll work on projects with an international footprint, solving real-world challenges and helping to build a safer digital future for our clients.
We are looking for a Software Engineer II (f/m/x) to join our Platform team, working primarily on backend systems that support our products and internal teams.
In this role, you will help extend and maintain backend services and internal-facing applications that run in a cloud-based environment. You will focus on implementing solutions based on clear requirements, writing maintainable code, and learning how backend systems operate within a broader platform context.
You will collaborate closely with other engineers, product managers, and designers, developing your technical skills while steadily increasing your independence with support from more experienced teammates.
This position is based in The Hague/Netherlands or Berlin, working in a hybrid modality.
What you will do
Implement backend features and bug fixes based on clear requirements and acceptance criteria.
Contribute to internal-facing services and platform components used by other teams.
Write clean, functional, and maintainable code with guidance from more experienced engineers.
Break down tasks into smaller steps with support and deliver them reliably.
Debug and fix issues in your own work with help when needed.
Follow established team practices around code quality, testing, documentation, security, and reliability.
Participate in code reviews by asking questions, learning from feedback, and applying it to your work.
Collaborate with engineers and product partners to clarify requirements and understand use cases.
Communicate progress and blockers clearly in stand-ups and team discussions.
Gradually build an understanding of how backend services run in a cloud environment (AWS) and support the wider platform.
2+ years of professional software development experience with a strongly typed language (Typescript, Java, .NET, PHP). We operate in Go and React, and value strong fundamentals over prior stack experience.
Working knowledge of backend development and growing familiarity with a modern tech stack.
Basic experience building or consuming APIs and exposure to cloud-based systems (AWS preferred).
Familiarity with version control, CI/CD pipelines, and modern development workflows.
Ability to follow clear requirements and deliver code that meets defined expectations.
Willingness to ask questions, seek clarification, and raise blockers early.
Curiosity and motivation to learn from feedback and improve your technical skills.
Clear and respectful communication with teammates.
Fluency in English is required.
A meaningful mission: protect organizations across Europe from real-world cyber threats
Work with top-tier professionals from national CERTs, intelligence agencies, and leading tech backgrounds
A remote-friendly culture with regular company-wide get-togethers, giving you the opportunity to collaborate in person and build strong team connections
A generous time-off policy, including wellbeing and volunteering days
