Join a small team building the next generation of cybersecurity products from the ground up. Led by industry veterans with a proven track record of success - you will get to architect, build, and deliver hugely impactful products with this world class team. You will have the opportunity to grow your career and skills along with the company from the very start.
We're building a next-generation AI-native cybersecurity platform from the ground up. Unlike traditional SaaS products, our platform runs entirely within customer-controlled environments and processes massive volumes of security telemetry, system activity, and enterprise data.
We're looking for a frontend engineer who can own the user experience for complex security and operational workflows. This is not a typical consumer application role. You'll design and build interfaces that help security analysts investigate threats, navigate large-scale datasets, understand system behavior, and take action quickly. As one of the early frontend engineers, you'll have significant influence over product architecture, user experience, frontend infrastructure, and how AI is integrated into the product.
