About The Position

Radiant Security is building the most advanced AI SOC platform, featuring unbounded alert triage, investigation, and response for security teams at scale. Our platform ingests alerts from across an organization's entire security stack (SIEM, EDR, identity, cloud) and uses AI to triage, investigate, and surface what actually matters. We're replacing alert fatigue with clear signal, so analysts can focus on real threats. We're a small, fast-moving team. We ship continuously, stay close to customers, and hold ourselves to a high standard. Our product touches the daily workflows of security teams, and decisions we make have a direct impact on how quickly threats get resolved. Join us and boost your career with hands-on AI experience. The Role We’re looking for an Engineering Manager to lead the development of our AI-powered applications for security automation. This is a high-impact leadership role that spans engineering, AI research, and product — with a strong focus on building intelligent, scalable systems to transform how security teams operate. You’ll be a technical and strategic partner to product and research teams, helping drive initiatives across the company and mentoring engineers to deliver high-performance, real-time systems. What problems you will be working on? Accuracy: We aim to correctly triage any alert while providing full transparency on each step taken and the reasoning behind it. Cost and scale: We need to bring the power of LLMs and big-data integrations to customers on any budget. Breadth: We need to run on any customer environment and automate any security use case.
