About this job

We are looking for an Offensive Security Engineer to work on Teleport's Red Team.

You will develop a strong understanding of our cloud and corporate infrastructure and use that knowledge to find gaps in our security posture.

When you find exploitation paths, you will work with the Defense and Intelligence team to add detections to Panther, Wiz, and Jamf.

You will work with your security teammates and the Cloud team to provide feedback on our cloud architecture and detection and response logic.

Projects you may work on
  • Engage with the best red teams in the world on a regular basis to test our cloud security.
  • Plan and execute your own red team style cloud operations internally.
  • Discover and assist in triaging cloud security architecture and configuration flaws.
  • Review cloud architecture changes where your security expertise can add value.
Requirements
  • Strong AWS security experience
  • Red team / offensive security experience
  • Go or Rust experience a plus
  • GCP experience a plus

The Benefits

While many companies flaunt their benefits and perks to convince you to join their company, we believe your career is more important than that. That's why we focus on making your day-to-day the best it can be while empowering you to achieve your goals and aspirations.

What does that mean?

  • It means you'll have the autonomy to make your own decisions and focus on what's important to you and your role.
  • It means having access to a senior team that supports you and wants to see you succeed.
  • You'll have a smart team you can learn from, collaborate with, and grow with.
  • It means being able to make an impact and have a voice in the future of the feature, product or company direction. We don't just leave you to focus on a niche. We allow you to spread your wings and take advantage of opportunities, challenging projects and exciting problems.
  • It means removing the bureaucracy and red tape that stifles innovation while giving you access to all the information you need to build and take action more quickly.
  • It means allowing you to have the career you've always wanted today, rather than having to "earn your stripes" and wait for the right moment. If you're good enough, you're good enough.


But we don't stop there.

In addition to the career opportunities at Teleport, we offer a whole range of benefits that help you to maximize your future, including:

  • Extensive health coverage
  • Annual expense budget
  • Rest & recovery policies that maximize leave and your ability to recharge
  • Investment in your future with retirement savings plans
  • Equity in a US $1.1-bn business
  • Professional development opportunities


Do you have what it takes?

Get to use (and know) Teleport through our unique interview process

At Teleport, we do things a bit differently. And when we say we only hire top talent, we actually mean it. Because of this, our interview process is different too - and we're proud of it. We let your work do the talking. We don't go in for six rounds of interviews, live whiteboard or live-coding. We don't hire people that can talk a good game. We only want the best. And for that, we need to see what you can do, in your own time, in your own way. For real.

But interviews are a two-way street. Through the project, you'll get a real taste of life at Teleport, including:

  • We're flexible - you'll have plenty of time to complete your project, if life gets in the way, that's ok. We can - work around you.
  • We give you autonomy - you'll have the space and freedom to figure things out, make decisions, and problem-solve.
  • We're collaborative - Got questions?
  • We have answers. You'll have support from your team - the one you'll be working with day in day out if you're successful in getting the role.
  • We progress careers - During the project, see how much you learn. That's what working at Teleport is like. We like learning, on the job. All-the-time.
  • We can move fast (if you can) - two weeks sound like a long time? No problem? Early submissions are fine, and we'll keep the process moving.


Think you've got what it takes? We'd love to see it! Unconvinced? We can guarantee three things:
  • It'll challenge you.
  • You'll learn a lot.
  • If you love the process, you'll love working at Teleport.
