We value our Fellows' individuality, with an inclusive environment where diversity drives innovation and growth. What makes you unique is what we value – be yourself, that is (y)our greatest asset. Founded in Finland, F‑Secure has offices in Europe, North America and Asia Pacific.

Do you have hands-on experience building scalable backend systems in the AWS ecosystem? Are you motivated by solving real technical challenges, improving processes, and contributing to services that protect millions of users worldwide?

We’re expanding our Total backend team and are now looking for a Senior Cloud & Backend Developer to join us. You’ll play a key role in designing, developing, and maintaining the backend systems that power F-Secure Total — ensuring performance, reliability, and security at scale.

About the Total backend team

Our team builds and maintains backend systems that power F-Secure Total, serving millions of consumers and partners globally. These systems are the backbone of our cybersecurity products—playing a key role in keeping users safe online every day.

We’re an experienced, international, and collaborative group: every member brings over a decade of hands-on expertise in Python, AWS, and modern development practices. The team currently includes colleagues from four nationalities and a strong culture of openness, learning, and shared ownership. We help each other succeed, share best practices, and value knowledge exchange as part of our daily work.

Ownership within the team is shared but structured—each developer has primary and backup responsibilities for different backends, ensuring continuity, resilience, and cross-domain learning.

We make extensive use of AWS and operate with a DevSecOps/SRE mindset, applying CI/CD, IaC, monitoring, and automation. The environment encourages curiosity and experimentation: we continuously evaluate new tools, adopt modern practices, and explore ways to integrate AI-driven approaches where they add value.

We’re based in Helsinki, Finland, with flexibility to work remotely or on-site. Remote team members are expected to join us in the office for co-working days at least once every two weeks.

Key responsibilities:

• Design, implement, test, and deploy backend systems on AWS infrastructure.
• Estimate work effort, assess risks, and participate in the continuous development of team practices and processes.
• Troubleshoot and resolve issues in collaboration with other teams; support production operations.
• Review code, ensure high quality through automated testing, and contribute to secure-by-design implementations.
• Collaborate with designers, testers, and other developers to ensure technical coherence and maintainability across systems.
• Participate in the adoption of new tools and practices, helping evolve our development environment and automation capabilities.
• Ensure security and compliance considerations are integral to designs and solutions.

What are we looking for?

• Solid hands-on experience in cloud and backend development, including:
  • AWS services (e.g., Lambda, ECS, DynamoDB, S3, CloudWatch)
  • Python and Bash
  • Linux environments
  • CI/CD tools and infrastructure as code
• Strong understanding of Agile software development practices.
• Proven ability to analyze and solve complex technical problems and balance trade-offs in real-world systems.
• A collaborative, proactive mindset—you communicate effectively and enjoy working in a team environment.

Bonus points for:

• Experience troubleshooting production environments and improving observability.
• Familiarity with DevSecOps and security-focused development practices.
• Interest in AI-powered development and modern automation tooling.
• Enthusiasm for mentoring and sharing expertise in a senior, peer-to-peer environment.

What will you get from us?

• Meaningful impact – You’ll tackle interesting software engineering challenges that help secure the digital lives of millions of users across more than 50 countries.
• Talented teammates – Work alongside experienced, enthusiastic colleagues with strong team spirit. Within F-Secure, you'll find some of the best minds in the cybersecurity industry.
• Career development – We actively encourage our Fellows to grow and develop within F-Secure. Over time, you may explore different roles or contribute to various products and teams.
• Autonomy and flexibility – You shape your role, set your priorities, and organize your work for the benefit of us all. Our flexible, agile, and dynamic environment supports individual needs and interests.
• Mentorship and onboarding – From day one, you'll have a named buddy or mentor to help you integrate, learn our practices, and start contributing your own ideas.
• Exciting phase of growth – We’re in a unique moment in our 30-year history, with curiosity and excitement in the air. It's a great time to build a strong and meaningful career with us.

Our benefits include extensive health care, remote working, company supported sport activities, lunch vouchers, regular massages and sauna (and soon also gym) at the premises and many more things to keep our best asset – people - happy!
