About the Company

This is a modern cloud security company focused on protecting customer infrastructure through deep runtime visibility and contextual system insights.

Unlike traditional security tooling, the platform uses runtime data and low-level system instrumentation to identify real threats, prioritise risks, and automate responses across complex cloud environments.

Despite being relatively new locally, the business is already:

Well-funded
Commercially proven
Scaling globally
Backed by significant investment

This is a rare opportunity to join early in the growth journey, while benefiting from strong financial backing and clear product-market fit.

Technology Environment

Experience operating large-scale production systems

Strong technical leadership and mentoring ability

Ability to balance strategic thinking with hands-on technical guidance

Nice to have:

Experience working on cloud security platforms

Strong Linux systems knowledge

Experience with observability, reliability engineering, or performance optimisation

Experience scaling engineering teams during rapid growth

What It’s Like to Work Here

This is a high-trust, collaborative engineering culture. The Site Lead describes the team “like a band - everyone plays their part.”

You’ll work alongside some of the strongest engineers in the local market in an environment where:
