What the job involves

- In short, EDR is a bad-ass product, and we need a bad-ass leader to keep making it even better
- At Huntress, we work with low walls between disciplines because we believe good ideas are everywhere and the best products come from teams that deeply understand our customers, experiment, and validate our products
- Deliver performant, scalable products iteratively, helping your teams balance incremental customer value delivery with long-term product evolution
- Drive the technical roadmap and best practices for our EDR solutions so they are scalable to accommodate rapid growth and increased user demand

- Hire and coach engineering managers to continue to build and enable great teams
- Set clear expectations with your leaders and ICs, provide regular feedback, and conduct performance conversations to foster a high-performing engineering team
- Identify opportunities and implement improvements to both the product and engineering practices and processes to optimize efficiency, quality, and time-to-market
- Partner with other engineering leaders, product leaders, and architects to ensure our teams and technology are in sync and deliver real value for our customers
- Collaborate with Huntress’s Architecture, Product Management, and Threat Operations teams to integrate their expertise and needs into our products
- Reports to: Vice President, Engineering
Our take
In a world of increasingly sophisticated cyberthreats, many organizations lack the resources and expertise to defend themselves effectively. Huntress has stepped in to address this gap, delivering robust cybersecurity solutions to protect a wide range of businesses and institutions across the US business landscape.
The company offers a managed security platform, which third party resellers leverage to protect their clients from attacks. Launched in 2015, Huntress has grown well over the years, attracting plenty of investment and expanding its headcount into the hundreds.
More recently, Huntress has turned its eye to acquisitions and new product launches, as well as major international expansion. A considerable influx of funding will support these initiatives, as well as allow the company to maintain sales momentum by expanding its go-to-market efforts.
