DefenseStorm

DefenseStorm is a cybersecurity startup that helps banks and other financial institutions manage the deluge of security data that they produce. We take all of the security critical information and then alert on what's important, generate reports, show cool dashboards, and simplify demonstrating compliance to their regulators and auditors. I got my job here through an HN Who's Hiring post 5 years ago, and I love working here. Strong engineering culture - weekly hour 'topic sync' to share knowledge, minimal meetings, flexible hours/wfh, happy customers that give good feedback, and interesting problems to solve. Our engineering team has been fully remote for COVID and we are conducting interviews remotely, but we are just now starting to open up the office for those who are vaccinated and wish to come in. For Full stack engineers, we use Angular, Typescript, Java 11, PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch, and we're built on AWS. Our interview loop is one or two ~1-hour phone screenings, followed by a ~4 hours video call - and we've designed it to approximate realistic day-to-day coding and code review (no algorithm riddles). Machine learning is going to be a core part of what we do going forward, and we’re planning to significantly grow the team this year after building out our first couple applications. We’re looking for data scientists to build our models and engineers with experience in data pipelining, designing and deploying ml architecture. Additionally we have opportunities available for full stack engineers without previous experience in ML to work on data-engineer-like projects and assist with productizing the outputs of our models.
