About RADICL

As the leading provider of Cybersecurity-as-a-Service (CSaaS), RADICL is revolutionizing advanced cyberthreat protection for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) in the U.S. Defense Industrial Base (DIB) and other regulated industries. No longer should SMBs be satisfied with lack luster solutions delivering lack luster protection. RADICL is ushering in a new era of turn-key and affordable cyberthreat protection via its AI-powered virtual SOC platform that allows human and digital agents to quickly and seamlessly become SMBs’ day-to-day compliance and security operations team.

RADICL’s turn-key CSaaS offering uniquely combines compliance management with AI and expert-driven 24/7 security operations. We guide customers to regulatory and best practice adherence with standards like CMMC and NIST CSF while also delivering 24/7 threat monitoring, deep-spectrum™ threat hunting, incident response, vulnerability management, and security awareness training.

With RADICL, customers can stay mission focused, confident their front, rear, and flank are protected, affordably and without compromise.

If you’re excited about working with industry experts to help SMBs focus on growing their businesses without the constant worry of security and compliance risks, we invite you to join us in our mission to protect American businesses and drive innovation in cybersecurity.

About the role

RADICL is seeking a Senior Engineer to focus on AI-driven workflows and intelligent automation systems . You'll architect and build the next generation of automated incident response capabilities powered by advanced AI systems. This role is entirely focused on automation and workflow orchestration - you'll create intelligent systems that automatically process security data, generate insights, and execute response actions without direct human interaction in the critical path.

You’ll work on automated case management systems that combine large language models, threat intelligence, entity attribution analytics, and automated reasoning to accelerate incident response. Your work will directly impact how our platform automatically processes threats, correlates entity relationships, and executes response workflows at scale. Your focus will be on automated intelligence and case processing systems that consume security data feeds to drive autonomous security operations.

If building AI systems that enhance human decision-making in high-stakes security environments excites you, RADICL is seeking high-performing, motivated individuals to join our mission. As an early member, you will work closely alongside an experienced founding team. You will work with the latest AI/ML technologies and cybersecurity platforms. You will have a significant impact on the growth of an innovative cybersecurity offering in the SMB space. You will receive an outsized equity grant and realize the life-changing experience of building a company.
