Reports to: Engineering Manager  Location: Remote US  Compensation: $215,000 to $240,000 base plus bonus and equity   What We Do: Cybercrime is growing, and more businesses are getting hit by threats that used to target only the biggest organizations.

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. Huntress now secures more than 5M endpoints and 11M identities worldwide.
