That pushes defenders like us to operate at the highest level, and it deepens our need for good people who want to make a meaningful impact.\nFounded in 2015 by former NSA cyber operators, Huntress is a remote-first team working to make enterprise-grade cybersecurity accessible to businesses of all sizes. We work closely with security teams and service providers protecting complex environments, often without the time or headcount to handle it all. That’s why we build our technology in-house and back it with a 24/7 human-led Security Operations Center (SOC). As a result, our platform is never disconnected from the experts who manage it, ensuring our customers' protection.\nHuntress now secures more than 5M endpoints and 16M identities worldwide. Those numbers keep growing because more businesses rely on us to help carry the load and operate with more confidence. Every day, you can see that commitment in how we stand with our customers and how we show up for each other.\nReports to: Engineering Manager\nLocation: Remote US\nCompensation Range: $200,000 to $220,000 base plus bonus and equity\nWhat You’ll Do: \nThe Huntress team is looking for an innovative and highly motivated Staff Software Engineer with excellent problem-solving and communication skills to join our Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) team. This is a new product which is generally available on July 1st and already has very strong engagement within our customer base. You will be instrumental in building and growing this product from its roots. You will be part of a growing product team that is strategically key to protecting the 99% from cyber attacks. \nIn this role, you will focus on creating the technical vision and implementing new and exciting features from the product roadmap. You will work closely with a product manager, senior engineers, security researchers, designers, and market experts to develop market-defining solutions for the identity protection space. At Huntress, Staff Engineers are expected to be technical leaders, driving new ideas, building great software and mentoring more junior engineers. We make full use of AI coding tools to enable you to accelerate your development. We do not cap token usage, however we expect our engineers to use AI, and all tools responsibly. \nISPM is a new frontier of security, with the vast majority of breaches in 2026 beginning with identity compromise. ISPM moves compromise prevention “further left”, ideally preventing more identities from being breached by encouraging better hygiene in everyday actions. In this role, you will build scalable solutions to emerging threats in a rapidly evolving landscape. In many cases, you will work on problems nobody has solved before, with no existing template, so the ability to learn quickly and think outside the box is critical. You will work across the stack, building new UI one day, scalable data models and event ingestions the next, then wrapping up the week with automated detectors to alert customers and our Security Operations Center to suspicious activity.\nResponsibilities:\nDesign, develop, and maintain end-to-end solutions using primarily Ruby on Rails.\nImplement efficient data pipelines to extract relevant information from massive amounts of noise \nCollaborate with security researchers to understand hacking strategies and methods to combat them\nBe a technical thought leader for your team, providing architectural and design direction\nContinuously improve solution quality through code reviews, manual and automated testing\nSet standards for excellence and develop processes that make the team continuously more efficient\nLead more junior engineers to deliver larger projects, including breaking down ambiguous problems into well-defined tasks, validating designs, and serving as POC for stakeholders\nDesign the systems and architecture to support processing petabytes of data efficiently\nWhat You Bring To The Team:\n10+ years of experience developing complex software products\n5+ years of programming in Ruby on Rails\nExperience with AI coding tools, such as Claude Code\nExperience with relational databases, such as Postgres \nPreferred Qualifications:\nExperience working in the CyberSecurity industry\nExperience working with external APIs (particularly REST, OData, authZ and authN flows)\nFamiliarity with identity and resource security providers like m365, Okta, Google Workspaces, or similar\nExperience with other data storage technologies (Clickhouse, Redis, ElasticSearch, Mongo, etc.)\nWhat We Offer: \n100% remote work environment - since our founding in 2015\nGenerous paid time off policy, including vacation, sick time, and paid holidays\n12 weeks of paid parental leave\nHighly competitive and comprehensive medical, dental, and vision benefits plans \n401(k) with a 5% contribution regardless of employee contribution\nLife and Disability insurance plans\nStock options for all full-time employees \nOne-time $500 reimbursement for building/upgrading home office\nAnnual allowance for education and professional development assistance \n$75 USD/month digital reimbursement\nAccess to the BetterUp platform for coaching, personal, and professional growth\n\nHuntress is committed to creating a culture of inclusivity where every single member of our team is valued, has a voice, and is empowered to come to work every day just as they are. \nWe do not discriminate based on race, ethnicity, color, ancestry, national origin, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, veteran status, genetic information, marital status, or any other legally protected status. \nWe do discriminate against hackers who try to exploit businesses of all sizes.\nAccommodations: \nIf you require reasonable accommodation to complete this application, interview, or pre-employment testing or participate in the employee selection process, please direct your inquiries to .
