What will you do?

The team is a key part of our all-star Windows EPP and EDR development group. In addition to dealing with the toughest bugs we face, you will be a core part of designing and developing the capabilities that will improve the product’s stability and make the user experience smoother.

What skills & knowledge should you bring?

  • 5+ years of experience as a Software Developer in the area of low-level Windows programming
  • 3+ years of recent experience in C, Assembly, and C++ (any experience with modern C++ 17/20 is a plus)
  • Windows Kernel development expertise

  • Hands-on familiarity with standard debugging and profiling tools for Windows
  • Previous experience working on a production-grade product with a wide-scale deployment
  • Previous experience with security-oriented development, reversing or malware analysis experience – an advantage
  • Great communication skills
  • Ability to work independently and with peers from different time zones.

Why us?

You will support real-world problems and make a tremendous impact by protecting our global customers from cyber threats. You will be joining a cutting-edge company and will be able to influence the architecture, design, and structure of our core platform. You will tackle extraordinary challenges and work with the very BEST in the industry.
