Content Marketing Writer

We’re making security suck less for developers.

Security tools haven’t kept up with how software is built today. They interrupt teams, slow releases, and turn security into a bottleneck instead of a capability. We built Aikido to change that. Aikido builds developer-first security products that reduce real risk without getting in the way of shipping software. We focus on what actually matters and automate the rest.

We’re taking on legacy security tools teams have been stuck with, and we’re winning. If you want to help us take market share and build products developers actually enjoy using, you’re in the right place.

Founded in 2022 by third-time founders, Aikido has $85M in the bank and a long runway ahead. We’re building toward self-securing software. Join an all-star team. Take real ownership. Push boundaries. Build things that matter.

So we are looking for you, an experienced content writer with a cloud security background . You'll translate security industry slang and acronyms into understandable language.

You will work closely together with our marketing, product & dev team to make sure you deeply understand the tech & product. Then, you’ll use that knowledge to write valuable content for our users (blogs, guides, tutorials, articles,...).

Our mission is to simplify software security for busy developers. In that sense, we're at the forefront of an "accessible" security industry, and so the work you do will be seen and felt by a huge number of people.
