Bonus Points
- Experience with both agent-based and agentless security technologies, including EDR, XDR, or similar tools for cloud environments
- Prior work in threat intelligence, APT research, or incident response focused on cloud services
- Familiarity with machine learning techniques applied to security and detection in cloud contexts
The Team
Our engineering team is at the core of our products and connected directly to the mission of preventing cyberattacks. We are constantly innovating-challenging the way we, and the industry, think about cybersecurity. Our engineers don't shy away from building products to solve problems no one has pursued before.
We define the industry instead of waiting for directions. We need individuals who feel comfortable in ambiguity, excited by the prospect of a challenge, and empowered by the unknown risks facing our everyday lives that are only enabled by a secure digital environment.
