Contrast recognized for its innovation in Runtime Security

Contrast Security is the world’s leading provider of security technology that enables software applications to protect themselves against cyberattacks, heralding the new era of self-protecting software. Contrast's patented deep security instrumentation is the breakthrough technology that enables highly accurate assessment and always-on protection of an entire application portfolio without disruptive scanning or expensive security experts. Only Contrast has sensors that work actively inside applications to uncover vulnerabilities, prevent data breaches, and secure the entire enterprise from development to operations to production.

We believe in agile practices to build our software, as well as continuously delivering features and improvements to our users. Our team believes that a successful product is built by working with designers, product managers, and operators to understand the full cycle of software development. 

The role of the Development Manager involves a balance of day-to-day personnel management, as well as managing development projects in a cross-functional manner. Development managers are not just managers, they often operate as technical leads for their project and are expected to commit code (though at a different pace to contributing engineers). 

As Development Manager you have a number of responsibilities, but the primary one is to get new functionality into the hands of our customers. Your goal is deliver results to the customer, or market, and do everything necessary to achieve this. You must make sure the development team is able to work as efficiently as possible - advancing towards clear short and long term goals, and that nothing prevents them from doing their work. From the initial project scope, to deploying the product to customer sites, each step is your responsibility. You’ll work with other parts of the organization, including Product Management, Sales Engineering and Customer Success, as well as your own Engineering leadership team. You can, and should, delegate as much as you can, but be ready to check that things are being done as you want, and be ready to jump in if it is not.
We are changing the world of software security. Do it with us.  
We believe in what we do and are passionate about helping our customers secure their business.
If you’re looking for a challenge and want to enjoy where you work, you’ll love Contrast Security.
