A toxic culture full of politics and extremely employee-unfriendly. - Senior Ssoftware Engineer ArmorCode Employee Review

I’ve been with ArmorCode for over four years as a Senior Engineering Manager, and it has been one of the most professionally rewarding phases of my career. What stands out the most is the leadership. Nikhil Gupta is a transparent and visionary CEO who consistently communicates the “why” behind our strategy. Whether it’s company direction, funding milestones, product vision, or market positioning, there is clarity and openness. That transparency builds trust and alignment across the organization. It genuinely feels like we are building something category-defining in the AppSec space, not just another security tool. From an engineering perspective, the culture is built around ownership and autonomy. Teams are trusted to make decisions, innovate, and execute. There is very little micromanagement — instead, there is accountability and empowerment. As a leader, I’ve had the opportunity to grow teams, mentor engineers, drive architectural decisions, and contribute to strategic discussions. That level of involvement is both challenging and fulfilling. The company’s 5H values — Hungry, Humble, Honest, Hardworking, and Human — are not just words; they are reflected in how people operate daily. There is mutual respect, strong collaboration, and a shared commitment to delivering real customer impact. It’s a high-performance environment, but also one where people genuinely support each other. I’m proud of the growth we’ve achieved and the mission we’re driving — helping organizations simplify and strengthen their application security posture. It’s exciting to be part of a company that is scaling rapidly while staying grounded in strong values and clear vision. Pros: Transparent and visionary leadership Strong culture of ownership and accountability High-growth environment with real career opportunities Values-driven organization Opportunity to work on meaningful, category-defining problems

As a fast-growing startup defining a new category, priorities can shift quickly and processes continue to evolve. The expectations are high, and the pace may not suit someone looking for a slower or highly structured environment.

For those hungry to dip their toes into security mixed with AI and get to work with top tier customers, this is absolutely the place for you.
