And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.

Our team's mission is to help customers manage their network security complexity with ease. We're looking for a lead full-stack engineer to shape the development of a new, greenfield product that radically improves on this mission by offering an Agentic experience to help customers meet their security needs. This project is a novel application of AI that goes beyond current industry standards.

As a developer, you will shape how we design, develop, build, deploy, and support this exciting new product. You will work closely with your team, mentoring and supporting other team members, and ensuring the results we deliver our customers are of the highest quality.
