Senior Freelance Cybersecurity Developer

When it comes to programming, Python is a form of art. In order to be a better artist, I've honed my skills day and night for 10 years. I might not know everything, but constantly answering on StackOverflow, architecting systems of all sizes, and contributing to the development of the Python language gets you quite far. I love reviewing code, and mentoring others. When you mentor others, you share that little spark of creation to another human being, and by doing so your own flame grows stronger. If you love Python and wish to learn or get an in-depth review of your code, I might just be the right person :-)

FAQs

Why hire a Cybersecurity developer?

In today’s world, most companies have code-based needs that require developers to help build and maintain. For instance, if your business has a website or an app, you’ll need to keep it updated to ensure you continue to provide positive user experiences. At times, you may even need to revamp your website or app. This is where hiring a developer becomes crucial.

Depending on the stage and scale of your product and services, you may need to hire a Cybersecurity developer, multiple developers, or even a full remote developer team to help keep your business running. If you’re a startup or a company running a website, your product will likely grow out of its original skeletal structure. Hiring full-time remote Cybersecurity developers can help keep your website up-to-date.

While you can find Cybersecurity developers on general platforms, top tech talents generally avoid general marketplaces in order to escape bidding wars.

If you’re looking to hire the best remote Cybersecurity developers, consider niche platforms like Arc that naturally attract and carefully vet their Cybersecurity developers for hire. This way, you’ll save time and related hiring costs by only interviewing the most suitable remote Cybersecurity developer candidates.

Some factors to consider when you hire Cybersecurity developers include the platform’s specialty, developer’s geographical location, and the service’s customer support. Depending on your hiring budget, you may also want to compare the pricing and fee structure.

To attract top talent, it's also helpful to list other perks and benefits, such as flexible hours and health coverage.

Crafting a compelling job title is critical as it's the first thing that job seekers see. It should offer enough information to grab their attention and include details on the seniority level, type, and area or sub-field of the position.

The role summary for your remote Cybersecurity developer should be concise and read like an elevator pitch for the position, while the duties and responsibilities should be outlined using bullet points that cover daily activities, tech stacks, tools, and processes used.
