Contract Description About Us: ISTARI is a strategic cybersecurity advisory company with a bold vision; to curate the defining cybersecurity ecosystem of our time, uniting enterprise, academia, government, and innovators to build collective resilience. At the heart of this mission, ISTARI helps clients achieve lasting organisational cyber resilience by convening and applying world-class talent, expertise, and innovation through a uniquely powerful network, with ISTARI as the central orchestrator.

If you thrive at the intersection of cutting-edge AI tooling and practical business problem-solving, and you want to shape how a fast-growing cybersecurity firm operates, this role is for you.

AI-Powered Tool Development • Rapid Prototyping: • AI-Assisted Development: • Full Stack Ownership: 2. Business Translation & Requirements • Stakeholder Engagement: • Requirements Definition: • User-Centric Design: 3.
