Description

About Dropzone AI

Dropzone’s mission is to scale cybersecurity beyond human limits, and augment every single human security engineer/analyst with an army of AI security specialists. Humans alone cannot sufficiently protect our digital future, and AI augmentation is the only way for defenders to reclaim the high ground. We are an award winning company disrupting the $200B+ cybersecurity market.

Powered by Gen AI advancements, our technology offloads repetitive day-to-day work and frees human analysts to focus on real threats and higher-value projects. We are venture-backed, and our team has a rare blend of deep experience across cybersecurity, AI/ML, and SaaS product development. Join us if you want to be on the ground floor of using Gen AI to transform cyber defense. Learn more at www.dropzone.ai.

About the role

The Security Engineer will own investigation quality and be primarily responsible for ensuring that our AI SOC Analyst is generating accurate, timely reports. This role is pivotal in continuing to maintain and expand our investigation quality lead over the competition.

What you'll do

  • Build into and improve the product by writing investigation flows, building integrations with security tools, and fixing bugs.
  • Evolve the investigation logic and pipelines to handle new classes of security alerts, balancing accuracy, performance, and maintainability
  • Contribute directly to our Python codebase while influencing architectural decisions and long-term product strategy
  • Review and analyze investigations performed by our AI to identify strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities for improvement, and then translate those insights into product enhancements.
  • Partner with GTM and customer success teams to influence technical direction, prioritize features, and ensure we’re solving the most impactful problems for defenders
  • Provide technical leadership and mentorship to other engineers
  • Periodically participate in a 24x7 on-call rotation

Requirements

  • 6+ years in software development or security engineering
  • Strong experience writing production Python code
  • Strong experience writing detections, working on a SOAR team, working on a Detection and Response or threat hunting team, or building security tooling or security products
  • Understanding of modern security best practices, investigation techniques, and threat hunting techniques
  • Early-stage startup mindset. You thrive on ambiguity, move with lightspeed execution, and can translate ambiguity into shipped features that move the business forward
