What the job involves

We are looking for a Software Engineer to join Coalition’s Scanning Engine and Data Collection team

Therefore, you will be working on and creating distributed (cloud) systems to achieve this goal
This is a fun and driven team of engineers ranging from junior to principal, who are solving extremely challenging problems at internet scale
This includes broadly scanning the entire internet, deeply scanning all our insurance policy holders and security customers, as well as managing all of our threat intel feed ingestion and backend APIs
This data powers both our decisioning and pricing for insurance underwriting, our attack surface management tool, Coalition Control, for risk management of both policyholders as well as revenue generation as a standalone security product
It’s a big challenge and a fun problem to solve and optimize, and it directly affects the success of our entire business

Perform regular code reviews
Participate in design reviews
Implement robust code

Our take

The cybersecurity industry has been going through a record-breaking period of investment. This trend has emerged as more companies move to cloud-based networks following the increase of out-of-office work, thus increasing the risk of cyber attacks. However, many cutting-edge cyber defences are too expensive for many companies.

Coalition’s joint offering of cyber security tools, a risk management platform, and cyber insurance allows companies to manage the ever-present risk of cyber threats.

The company has made a strong start since its 2017 launch, raising nearly $800 million in funding. There are a number of other fast-growth startups in the cybersecurity space, including Wiz and Orca Security, but Coalition’s shrewd insurance-based model is what sets it apart from the competition. The company has set out on a path toward global expansion, branching out from the US and Canadian markets to bring its solutions to the UK, whilst also acquiring smaller competitors like JUMBO.
