Junior Backend Engineer

Description

Data has never been more valuable or more vulnerable. As cyber threats become increasingly sophisticated, organizations face one critical question: Is my data safe?

At Varonis, we see cybersecurity differently. Instead of simply chasing threats, we focus on protecting data from the inside out. Our Data Security Platform helps organizations reduce risk and keep their most sensitive information secure.

We move fast, collaborate closely, and care deeply about solving complex technical challenges. If you're looking for an opportunity to grow as a Backend Developer while working on meaningful cybersecurity products, we'd love to meet you.

We work in a flexible hybrid model, allowing you to find the home-office balance that works best for you.
