About the company

Our client is a cybersecurity company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Own the networking and distributed systems layer of a software platform, building low-latency services that handle heavy request volumes.

What you'll do

- Build protocol-aware proxies and gateways that handle several kinds of network traffic.

- Design a very fast request path so policy checks run on every request without noticeable delay.

- Create high-volume data pipelines and storage so activity stays searchable for investigation and analysis.

- Lead customer deployments across cloud, private network and on-premises environments.

- Own a product area end to end, working in person alongside the founders.

- Spend roughly 80% of your time on engineering and 20% with customers.

Requirements

What we're looking for

- A track record of shipping and operating large-scale production systems that span many machines.

- Prior work at a technology company where the underlying system is the core product.

- Clear communication and sound product judgment for working directly with customers.

Bonus points

- Hands-on exposure to traffic routing, request handling layers or large-scale data movement.
