Desirable

• As a Senior Backend Engineer on the Precision Defense team, you'll help build the systems that move our customers from reactive security toward proactive, evidence-based defense
• The team operates across three closely related areas — Rapid Response, Tripwires/Deception, Security Controls/EDR, and Autonomous Defense — and you'll contribute to backend infrastructure that spans all of them
• Depending on where you land within the team, your focus might include: analyzing and surfacing emerging vulnerability intelligence; building and scaling the workflows that help customers identify exposed assets and validate their defenses; deploying and improving deception signals that catch attackers in the act; or producing credible evidence that endpoint detection and response (EDR) controls are working as expected. Across all of these, the common thread is translating attacker-informed findings into measurable defensive outcomes for our customers
• This is a high-impact role on a team that owns customer-facing security workflows, supports production incidents, and ships features that directly influence how organizations understand and close their defensive gaps
• Build and maintain backend APIs, ETL pipelines, and data processing systems that power Rapid Response, Tripwires, EDR effectiveness, and Autonomous Defense workflows
• Design and implement GraphQL APIs to facilitate data interactions across product components
• Develop event-driven services and distributed systems that support reliable, scalable security automation
• Collaborate with frontend engineers, attack engineers, and product managers to deliver customer-facing features that communicate security findings clearly and actionably
• Contribute to production reliability: monitoring, alerting, incident response, and debugging across ETL, deployment, and data-propagation workflows
• Support safe, explainable, and reversible security automation — understanding that incorrect behavior in this domain can mean missed detections, noisy alerts, or false confidence for customers
