Product Engineer

This isn’t a typical software developer role. As a Product Engineer at PortSwigger, you’ll have real ownership from day one, with the autonomy to shape your work, the freedom to experiment, and the responsibility to deliver meaningful outcomes. Burp Suite is trusted by hundreds of thousands of (ethical) hackers, developers, and security professionals.

In this role, you’ll help shape the future of web security through the features you design, build, and evolve. This is an opportunity to do high-leverage, high-impact work in a supportive environment that values both excellence and care. You’ll solve real, complex user problems and build robust, user-ready features that deliver meaningful impact. You’ll also influence what we build and why. More importantly, you’ll be trusted to think boldly, learn fast, share your work early, and make great decisions in service of our users.

You’ll join a team of curious, driven, and humble engineers who take pride in building something that truly matters.

What You’ll Do

• Solve complex technical problems with creativity and sound judgment
• Contribute across the stack (frontend, backend, infrastructure) as an expert generalist, balancing breadth with depth and adapting quickly to new domains and tools
• Talk to users and use insights to drive decisions
• Share your work early and invite input from peers and cross-functional partners
• Collaborate with designers, researchers, marketers, and perform pair programming activities with other engineers
• Proactively seek and give feedback with candour and care, helping create a culture of continuous improvement
• Role-model PortSwigger values and raise the bar through your mindset, behaviours, and technical standards
• Leverage AI tools (e.g. LLMs, agents, copilots, ML APIs) to improve developer workflows and user-facing features
• Explore how AI can be meaningfully integrated into our products to solve real-world security challenges
