  • An excellent engineer with strong system design and software engineering fundamentals
  • Comfortable owning complex technical problems from architecture through to production
  • A builder who enjoys moving quickly and taking responsibility for outcomes
  • Someone who wants genuine influence rather than being one engineer amongst hundreds
Bonus points:
  • Previous start-up or scale-up experience
  • Experience across cybersecurity, cloud, infrastructure, or distributed systems
Why join?
  • Join a Series A start-up at a pivotal stage of growth
  • Work alongside experienced founders with a successful track record in cybersecurity

  • Have significant influence over architecture, product, and technical direction
  • Build technology addressing critical real-world cybersecurity challenges
