Silicon Valley - East Bay Area
We work hard to redefine mobile security for humans, and we take our responsibility to the millions of customers who use our solutions very seriously. No road blocks are big enough to stop us from finding a way to build solutions that are long-lasting and make people’s lives safer and easier. I personally love working here because over the years, we’ve built something very special - a culture that is based on people, kindness, succeeding together, and a willingness to fail and learn, which is especially important in the engineering world. I’m excited to come to work every day because of the incredibly smart people I get to work with and our continuous hunger to find the next big thing.

Prague
When I joined Avast, the company was almost 20 times smaller than today, but the team spirit and supportive culture from that time remains. Thanks to smart and talented people around me, I’ve grown from a very junior and inexperienced person to a very senior one. Currently, I work in a team doing backend development and automation in our Threat Labs. The problems that we solve here are challenging because we have a user count of over 400 million. Every system we develop or improve can potentially increase our detection rate and protect more users. It’s challenging work to make sure our systems scale well, are efficient, and run 24/7/365, but it’s worth it.

Brno
At Avast, I’m excited to be part of a global team creating and maintaining stable applications used by millions around the world. As a developer in the Czech Republic, I’ve worked with a development team in Tel Aviv and cooperated on a project led by a team in Amsterdam. The company culture is friendly and modern. I like that you aren’t just one of many software developers - if you want, you can speak up and impact the whole company. From the technology perspective, there are many opportunities to grow your knowledge and participate in the whole software development process, from the initial idea to the released and maintained product.

Ottawa
I am a QA Analyst on Managed Workplace, one of our Business products. Currently, I work as a sprint team member developing a new feature. Everyone on the team has a voice and contributes to the final product. I love that when the feature is released, we can feel proud of all we accomplished together. Our sprint team works closely with Product Management, Sales, and Support, which brings me to my favorite thing about working at Avast – the people. We are all working towards a common goal: making the best security software in the world. Another great thing about working at Avast? The flexible work hours allow me to enjoy a real work/life balance. I love my job!

Working for Avast this past year has been a great experience. Having the opportunity to work on a daily basis with a diverse and engaging team has been great for my career development. It has allowed me to develop my writing skills for an even wider range of platforms and to really gain an understanding of the tech world. It's such an exciting and fun place to work. From weekly Nerf wars to breakfast meetings and team days out, each day is different and challenging in the best way!

Amsterdam
As part of the Innovation Team, I’ve had the chance to work on projects with roles varying from product development to creating roadmaps to new business development, and even leading a team. The best part of working here is that there are people from different cultures with different perspectives - which makes innovation more meaningful. The work culture is exciting, because of the freedom to do things in your own way, as long as you get stuff done. Innovation is not a destination but an ongoing journey, and I am enjoying this journey with the great people around me.
