  • Erstellt mit künstlicher Intelligenz GitHub Deutschland Home Office

Veröffentlicht am 08.10.2025, In the GitHub Code Scanning team, we are passionate about securing the world's software - both Open Source and Enterprise. We believe that the best way to secure software is to detect security issues early in the development process, and actively facilitate their remediation as part of the developer workflow.

Our team develops and operates the Code Scanning product that's part of GitHub's Code Security offering. Code scanning uses world-class static analysis research and technology to deeply analyze code, enabling the early detection of security vulnerabilities and other bugs that testing and day-to-day use have missed. This role will be involved in the design, rollout and support of highly performant, highly scalable, and highly available services to make found-means-fixed a reality with the power of Copilot Autofix.

Responsibilities

Come join our engineering team and help design, develop, and scale GitHub's new Code Scanning feature. You'll be working in a full-stack agile engineering team that's part of the larger Code Scanning group working in Security Products. You'll work with and learn from Senior and Staff engineers as well as influence team and product direction. In addition, we support and reward spending time on improving diversity, inclusion, and belonging, as well as other important improvement-work outside your core role as a software engineer.
