Full Job Description
About the role

We're looking for an experienced systems software engineer to help drive and evolve our product. This person would extend and own our on-endpoint network proxy solution, intercepting and manipulating the network traffic of third party software. Our technology is new and rapidly evolving, and you'll have a chance to be an early contributor with a substantial impact on the product architecture.

What you'll do
  • Hook or redirect outbound connections, terminate and re-establish TLS sessions, and apply content-aware policies in real time
  • Add low-level collectors that trace data flows across apps, files, sockets, and pipes, feeding a unified event stream
  • Solve challenging performance optimization problems: we're building software that monitors hundreds of thousands of events with minimal impact on performance of the endpoint applications
  • Design and build highly reliable code that never impacts the end-user experience
  • Build secure-by-design hardened software that must withstand real-world attacks, while processing untrusted data and communicating with a backend over the internet


Who you are:
  • Strong track record in network interception and parsing
  • Prior work on at least one forward proxy used by security software
  • Experience debugging, profiling, and optimizing the performance of low-level system software
  • Proficient in designing and implementing application architecture
  • Experience with agile development and SCRUM
  • Proven ability to collaborate with a distributed cross-functional team
  • Possess verbal and written communication skills in English
  • Availability to frequently communicate with a distributed engineering team in Central European and US Eastern time zones.
