About Netop
Netop builds secure remote access solutions trusted by organizations in retail, finance, healthcare, industrial operations, and critical infrastructure. With a security-first architecture and strong alignment to Zero Trust principles, our systems run across cloud and on-prem environments and must meet high standards of reliability, compliance, and operational safety.
We operate a modern cloud SaaS platform (Netop Portal) and a mature on-premise product line (Netop Remote Control). Our infrastructure spans AWS, a few outgoing VMware ESXi systems, Entra ID, internal VPNs, and multi-environment deployments. Quality, stability, and automation are core to everything we do.
Job Information

• Team: Portal Engineering
• Level: L3 – Owning (Entry-level L3 with 6-month growth trajectory)
• Reports to:
• Location: Bucharest, Romania / Remote
• Type: Full-time
  

Your Role
We’re hiring a Software Engineer (L3) to own and deliver features across the Netop Portal — our cloud-based platform that enables secure remote access and device management for enterprise customers. You’ll work across the full stack (React, Node.js), taking ownership of modules and features throughout the SDLC, from technical design to deployment.
This is an entry-level L3 position — you’ll start with moderate ownership and progressively take on more complex features, architectural input, and mentorship responsibilities over your first 6 months. By the end of that period, you should be operating as a full-fledged L3 contributor.
We don’t use “years of experience” as a proxy for skill — we evaluate based on your understanding of fundamentals, your technical mindset, your ability to reason about problems, and your readiness to own outcomes..
