About the role: As a Senior Full Stack Engineer, become a part of a cross-functional development team engineering experiences of tomorrow.
Ciklum is looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer to join our team full-time in the Czech Republic.
We are a custom product engineering company that supports both multinational organizations and scaling startups to solve their most complex business challenges. With a global team of over 4,000 highly skilled developers, consultants, analysts and product owners, we engineer technology that redefines industries and shapes the way people live.
As a Senior Full Stack Engineer, become a part of a cross-functional development team engineering experiences of tomorrow. You'll be part of a small, close-knit R&D team that builds features across the whole stack. How much time you spend on frontend versus backend depends on what the feature needs. One week it might be 70/30, the next 60/40, and sometimes you'll take a feature from start to finish. The platform is mature and busy, with peaks of over 20,000 messages per second. The team is AI-first, so tools like Claude Code and GitHub Copilot are simply part of how we develop every day. You will join a long-term engagement with an Israeli company in automotive cybersecurity. Its platform protects millions of connected vehicles and covers vehicle security monitoring, threat detection, and fleet security operations, as well as API security.
