Aikido Security

Cybersecurity

Aikido is the get-it-done security platform for developers. Aikido centralizes all necessary code and cloud security scanners in one place. Created by pragmatic engineers, we put open-source solutions and the developer experience first in what we build and how we build it. We focus on finding what matters, so you aren’t bothered by what doesn’t. Win customers, grow up-market, and ace compliance. Aikido makes security simple for SMEs and doable for developers without industry jargon, red tape, and frankly, BS.

Job description

Location must be UAE, ideally Dubai or Abu Dhabi

🌍 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.


We’re looking for an entrepreneurial Account Executive to kickstart our presence in UAE and KSA. You’ll be our boots on the ground: prospecting, closing customers, and experimenting to find traction.
