Company mission

CoreWeave's mission is to deliver a massive scale of GPU compute resources on top of the industry’s fastest and most flexible infrastructure.

Role

Who you are

  • If you’re someone who thrives in a dynamic environment, enjoys solving complex problems, and is eager to make a significant impact, CoreWeave is the place for you
  • Proven ability to deliver impactful projects spanning multiple technical domains and teams
  • Extensive experience crafting custom alert logic within industry-standard tooling, like KQL, SQL, etc
  • Familiarity with Kubernetes fundamentals and enthusiasm to deepen your expertise
  • Experience collaborating closely with Purple and Red Teams, leveraging findings to enhance detection capabilities
  • Solid understanding of modern TTP frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK and Cyber Kill Chain
  • Proficiency in at least one query language (e.g., SQL, Splunk Query Language, HiveQL)
  • Competency in writing detections in multiple languages (Python, Bash, Go, JavaScript, etc.)
  • Strong foundational knowledge of Linux or macOS internals and their relevant event sources (eBPF, Endpoint Security Framework)
  • Practical experience applying and contributing to the Incident Response Lifecycle methodology
  • If crafting sophisticated detection strategies and staying ahead of threats in a dynamic, innovative environment excites you, we’d love to connect!

Desirable

  • Deep understanding of Kubernetes-specific detection and security challenges
  • Contributions to the open-source security community or experience developing detection tooling
  • Experience leveraging advanced analytics or machine learning techniques in detection engineering

What the job involves

  • Design cutting-edge detection strategies at scales most security engineers only dream about
  • Collaborate with talented peers in an innovative environment focused on excellence
  • Enjoy the autonomy and encouragement to innovate and influence CoreWeave’s security landscape directly
  • Developing and implementing advanced threat detection capabilities to proactively identify and mitigate cyber threats
  • Crafting precise and efficient custom detection logic tailored to evolving threat landscapes
  • Leading and/or participating in real-time security incident response, threat containment, and remediation
  • Conducting proactive threat-hunting exercises to uncover hidden vulnerabilities and anticipate threats
  • Collaborating closely with cross-functional teams to enhance security visibility and detection effectiveness
  • Continuously researching and staying informed about emerging threats, attack vectors, and detection methodologies
  • Participating in strategic security initiatives, contributing your expertise to security architecture and controls
  • Engaging in security assessments to uphold our high standards for security and compliance
  • Occasionally, "drawing the owl" - figuring out innovative solutions while navigating ambiguous situations
  • Please note that this role is not a typical 9-5 job. There may be instances where real-time incident response requires active participation outside business hours
  • On-call hours (including weekends and holidays) and all-hands-on-deck participation during active incidents are expected

Our take

Many cloud service providers can suffer from slow prediction speeds when they are used for data modeling. CoreWeave solves this problem with its specialized cloud service provider.

CoreWeave reduces prediction times and makes service requests faster and more efficient. This, in turn, cuts cloud costs considerably. This has proven to be a strong draw for many companies, with CoreWeave signing a lucrative partnership with GPU heavyweight NVIDIA as well as partnering with BitOoda, which has allowed it to expand its operations to the financial market.

However, in 2023 it closed three very significant rounds of funding (Series B and debt and secondary extensions), which is being invested into expanding its US-based data centers, opening two new ones in the coming year. The question remains whether, despite 2023's big investments in the sector, CoreWeave can maintain this momentum and whether generative AI's stock will continue to rise.
