Experience with deploying and maintaining some of the security services and tools owned by the team (e.g. SIEM, data pipelines, SOAR, domain monitoring, endpoint tooling, email protection tooling, cloud security tools)
While not primarily a development role, the team develops and maintains tools written in Go and Python, so experience with coding is required
You thrive in a collaborative environment filled with a diverse group of people with different expertise and backgrounds. We currently have around 30 nationalities represented with more than ½ the company working in a country different from the one they grew up in.
