Description

Reports to: Engineering Manager Location: Remote US Compensation Range: $195,000 to $210,000 base plus bonus and equity What We Do: Huntress is a fully remote, global team of passionate experts and ethical badasses on a mission to break down the barriers to cybersecurity. Whether creating purpose-built security solutions, hunting down hackers, or impacting our community, our people go above and beyond to change the security game and make a real difference. Founded in 2015 by former NSA cyber operators, Huntress protects all businesses—not just the 1%—with enterprise-grade, fully owned, and managed cybersecurity products at the price of an affordable SaaS application. The Huntress difference is our One Team advantage: our technology is designed with our industry-defining Security Operations Center (SOC) in mind and is never separated from our service. We protect 4M+ endpoints and 7M+ identities worldwide, elevating underresourced IT teams with protection that works as hard as they do. As long as hackers keep hacking, Huntress keeps hunting. What You’ll Do: The Huntress team is looking for an innovative and highly motivated Staff Software Engineer with excellent problem-solving and communication skills to join our Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) team. In this role, you’ll build solutions to monitor logins, behaviors, and access patterns at scale to automatically detect and stop hackers in their tracks. You will focus on creating the technical vision for new and exciting features from the product roadmap. You will work closely with senior engineers, security researchers, designers, and market experts to develop market-defining solutions for the identity protection space. ITDR is the new frontier of security, with the vast majority of breaches in 2024 beginning with identity compromise. In this role, you will build scalable solutions to emerging threats in a rapidly evolving landscape. In many cases, you will work on problems nobody has solved before, with no existing template, so the ability to learn quickly and think outside the box is critical. You will work across the stack, building new UI one day, scalable data models and event ingestions the next, then wrapping up the week with automated detectors to alert customers and our Security Operations Center to suspicious activity.
