Staff Software Engineer (Systems & Network Proxy)

Cyberhaven

9d • $210,000 - $235,000

About The Position

We’re looking for an experienced systems software engineer to help drive and evolve our product. This person would extend and own our on-endpoint network proxy solution, intercepting and manipulating the network traffic of third party software. Our technology is new and rapidly evolving, and you’ll have a chance to be an early contributor with a substantial impact on the product architecture.

Requirements

• 6+ years of professional experience in systems software, networking, proxy, or security engineering, with strong depth in network interception and low-level systems.
• Strong track record in network interception and parsing
• Prior work on at least one forward proxy used by security software
• Experience debugging, profiling, and optimizing the performance of low-level system software
• Proficient in designing and implementing application architecture
• Experience with agile development and SCRUM
• Proven ability to collaborate with a distributed cross-functional team
• Possess verbal and written communication skills in English
• Availability to frequently communicate with a distributed engineering team in Central European and US Eastern time zones.

Responsibilities

• Hook or redirect outbound connections, terminate and re-establish TLS sessions, and apply content-aware policies in real time
• Add low-level collectors that trace data flows across apps, files, sockets, and pipes, feeding a unified event stream
• Solve challenging performance optimization problems: we’re building software that monitors hundreds of thousands of events with minimal impact on performance of the endpoint applications
• Design and build highly reliable code that never impacts the end-user experience
• Build secure-by-design hardened software that must withstand real-world attacks, while processing untrusted data and communicating with a backend over the internet
