**Us**
Our platform SAGA is a sophisticated, user-friendly, multi-purpose information management platform for web scraping, discovery, search and analytics of data from both the open, deep, and dark web. We are currently present via resellers in more than 15 countries mainly in Europe. We operate in three areas:
Cyber crime, fraud, and online investigations for both government and commercial clients
Threat intelligence
Research including market- and competitive intelligence

We believe in making things easy - both for our clients, but also for the employees. As such we are always looking to improve in all areas and are willing to change in order to achieve this. Working with us means having a say in what gets done and how it gets done. 
Our culture and environment is very informal and casual and we all share a common vision of creating outstanding software products and making the world a better place. 

One of our goals is to be a global company. Our headquarter is located in Copenhagen, but we have employees in multiple European countries. We have a marketing team and two developers in Kyiv, and we are continuing to expand our development team there. You will be a part of this journey from the start.

**The role**
As a software engineer who has 3+ years of experience your responsibility is to develop the platform we deliver to customers. This role requires you having an overview of the system and implementing new features. It also involves refactoring old parts of the system as we move towards a new system.

Some of the skills that are useful in this role: Python, Django, PHP, relational and non-relational databases (MySQL, solr/elasticsearch, redis), Docker, Unix, CI/CD, Kubernetes, testing

**Things you might do are:**
– Implement a new feature based on a specification
– Refactor old parts of the system and assist in moving to a new system
– Identify problematic areas of the existing application and improve them
– Ensure the stability of the application
– Spot an issue in the database and help solve it

**You** 
You are perfect for us, if you:
– take pride in delivering a good product. 
– love working with new technologies, but are not afraid of using old and tried tools to get the job done. 
– are not scared of the task of documenting your work. 
– enjoy talking with your colleagues and finding better ways to do things. 
– love finding solutions to problems.
