The Role

  • Automate detection and response workflows using Go, Python, or Shell, ​​mostly so you can spend less time yelling at logs and more time celebrating wins
  • Stay one step ahead of emerging security threats
  • This position includes rotational on-call responsibilities; Not brutal- the workload is reasonable and shared across the team.

What We’re Looking For

  • 5+ years’ experience in software development, security, or a related field
  • Experience and passion identifying, developing, and integrating threat intelligence into meaningful detection engineering and preventative controls
  • Experience securing cloud-native environments and endpoint detection & response
  • Familiarity with macOS or Linux security controls
  • Independent work style and strong communication skills
  • Experience with security frameworks: SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST
  • Experience with open source software or red-teaming is a plus
