About the Role

The Software Developer is an essential contributor to the R&D organization by helping bridge the gap between UX Design and Agile Development at Arctic Wolf. They are involved in all aspects of the research, prototyping and implementation of user interfaces that solve problems for our customers.

Once a year we hold a department-wide Hackathon, teaming up across all R&D teams over four days to collaborate and build cool ideas outside the normal project scope. While innovation is the focus, some of these ideas do make it into our products.
