Job Description

Bit9 is building an essential security defense against advance persistent threats and malware through comprehensive measurement, detection, protection, and trust capabilities. Our work is deep inside operating systems—Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux—and we’re looking for team members that like to pry them open and innovate in the gaps. You’re probably a good fit for the team if:

You’re fluent in C++ (both OO and generic constructs).

You can easily find your way around a storage stack, task scheduler, or virtual memory.

You don’t feel dirty poking around a core dump, reading assembly, or reverse engineering things.

You relish hard problems in security, virtualization and stream processing.

You have the computer science background to do so effectively and efficiently.

This position is focused on Linux, so familiarity with Linux security modules, loadable kernel modules, troubleshooting loadable kernel modules, is valuable. Experience with the C/C++, Boost, STD template library, and application debugging on Linux is a must. As a Senior Software Engineer, you will contribute to the development of major functional and component areas from inception through delivery.

You’ll be part of a small team of smart talented people like yourself. The team shares a sense of purpose and urgency, but in a fun, friendly and informal atmosphere typical of young innovative technology companies. All doors are always open. You’ll work on problems we haven’t figured out and enjoy the satisfaction of having an impact on our success.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

Design, develop, test, document and maintain complex software features from general specifications.

Apply proven patterns, design principles and software engineering practices to develop quality software.

Plan and take responsibility for multiple features through the complete software development lifecycle.

Analyze, isolate and resolve problems in product software with little or no guidance.

Respond to high-priority issues quickly and drive to resolution and customer satisfaction.

Lead and contribute to reviews of software artifacts and give considered, high-quality feedback.

Evaluate, select and adapt standard techniques, tools and procedures in the delivery of features.

Independently collaborate with peers and with other functional organizations to achieve project goals.

Plan and schedule work and tasks across multiple features, manage dependencies, change and risk.

Lead projects and the delivery of multiple features to successful conclusion with a minimum of guidance.

Provide technical supervision and mentoring of one or more engineers.

Deliver technical training and training materials for other functional organizations in the company.

Qualifications

At least six years of software engineering in a product development organization

Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field.

At least five years recent experience building syste-ms-level software (e.g. kernel modules).

Deep knowledge in at least two related product or technical areas such as file systems, kernel drivers.

A record of efficient, creative solutions to complex problems and successful incorporation in product delivery.

Practical experience in C++ with applied knowledge of object oriented and generic programming.

Fluent in approaches to security, concurrency, debugging, performance, scalability, supportability and quality.

Good written and excellent verbal communication.

Bit9 + Carbon Black is an equal opportunity employer.
