Summary

We're working with a fast-growing, mission-driven cybersecurity startup building real-world intrusion detection technology for operational and embedded systems used in defense and transportation environments.

  • Experience writing detection software (C++, Rust, Go, Python)
  • Translating attack techniques into reliable detections
  • Working with low-level data, protocols, and anomalous traffic
  • Active Secret clearance required

Core Details:
  • Remote-first role + 20% travel to DC
