Since its inception, PhishFort has been continually growing partnerships with leading threat-intelligence, cybersecurity, and technology companies. Once such partnership is a collaboration with Coinbase, in the scope of which a browser extension called NightHawk is being developed.

- Expanding existing APIs to add additional functionality.
- Implementing user-facing front-ends as both plain web pages and browser plugin views.
- Building and updating user interfaces according to a design specification.
- Set up additional authentication methods full-stack, from front-end to DB.
- Review existing code for privacy policy compliance and potential security risks.
- Optimising the performance footprint of the plugin for a specific browser.
- Integrating NightHawk functionality with internal PhishFort infrastructure (or with miscellaneous third-party APIs).

- The ability to find solutions in collaborative consultation with business, engineering, and relevant stakeholders.
- Solid understanding of basic web principles and technologies, including HTML & CSS, HTTP requests, caching, DNS, CORS, etc.
- Experience with Javascript. Proficiency in Typescript will be advantageous, as well as having worked with Node.js. Experience with other high-level languages will be a further advantage, even if not directly relevant.
- Some experience with front-end Javascript frameworks. Experience with React or Angular will be advantageous.
