What we are looking for:

As an engineer on the Indicators team, you will support the backend apps & customer-facing APIs that deliver Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) & other technical data to customers. 

On a day-to-day basis, you will work closely with your engineering team & our threat-hunting team to provide customers with vetted, relevant, & fresh data that they can use for identifying patterns, predicting attacks, & profiling threats.

 What you will bring:

We're not concerned about where you went to school; actual experience & the ability to productionize applications is far more interesting.

This role requires you to be proficient in Python & to have 1-3 years of experience working directly with other engineers. We also value an ability to learn new or unfamiliar technologies quickly.

Technologies you will work with:

The core responsibility of an engineer on our team is to build & maintain our technical intelligence pipeline. This means you will work with:

• Python web frameworks like Flask & Django
• Streaming pipelines using tools like Kafka, AWS MSK, & Google PubSub
• Containers technologies like Docker & Kubernetes
• Search databases like Elasticsearch & Solr
• Monitoring tools like Prometheus & Grafana
• Malware analysis & collaboration tools like MISP, VirusTotal, YARA, CAPE

The Team:

We approach each day as an opportunity to do something extraordinary rather than nine hours spent in front of a screen. So we want a teammate who will take a genuine interest in the business & day-to-day details. 

Our best engineers are collaborative & selfless. They leave code cleaner than when they found it, & they are involved in the full lifecycle of software development: understanding the requirements, designing the solution, writing the code, testing the code, testing the integration, deploying it to production, & monitoring the deployment. They ask for help when they need it. And they use company goals as a guideline in addition to having a high personal standard for performance.
