Description

The company is a cybersecurity leader that protects the people, processes and technology modern organizations depend on. It has worked on stopping breaches since 2011 and offers an AI-native platform. Its distributed systems handle close to 3 trillion events per day, and that volume grows every day.

The team is building the core systems that give analysts the tools to stop attackers. These systems run 24/7/365 to find malicious activity and stop breaches. You will join the core engineering group for the company's managed response service, working closely with its analysts and advisors worldwide.

The team is spread across the United States and the United Kingdom. It communicates mainly on Slack, works largely asynchronously, and meets once a day, with people available for real-time discussion when needed.

Team values: fast, proactive help for internal and external customers; automation that multiplies what developers can do; software that speeds up analysts; products that are robust, efficient, scalable and easy to maintain; any approach that improves the customer experience, software or not; and the best idea wins. The company also expects you to help adopt AI responsibly and to experiment with it.
