The listing
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:
3+ years of professional experience in systems software, networking, proxy, or security engineering, with strong depth in network interception and low-level systems.
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
