Columbia, United States Huntress Full time
Job DescriptionJob Description

Reports to: Engineering Manager

Location: Remote US

Compensation: $200,000 to $235,000 base plus bonus and equity

What We Do:

Founded in 2015 as a fully remote company by former NSA cyber operators, Huntress was built on a simple premise: to force hackers to earn every inch of their access.

Today's cyber-attacks aren't limited to large organizations with the security tools that can ward off threats. Hackers don't discriminate and will find a way to penetrate any vulnerability in any size business, which is why Huntress focuses on protecting those small to midsize businesses that make up the backbone of our economy.

Huntress stops hidden threats that sneak past preventive security tools by utilizing our award-winning security platform and expert human threat hunters through dynamic products, including Managed EDR, MDR for Microsoft 365, and Managed Security Awareness Training.

Join the hunt and help us stop hackers in their tracks

What You'll Do:

The Huntress team is looking for an innovative and highly motivated Principal Software Engineer to join our Huntress Core Platform team. Our Core Platform contains the foundational components that power the entire Huntress product suite like the notification system, onboarding and activation, authentication and authorization, end-to-end user experience, integrations and APIs, and billing and subscriptions. Your contributions to our already high-performing team will help us scale our product suite that protects the 99%.

In this role, you will be responsible for end-to-end feature delivery: designing, developing, and releasing software features for the Huntress Core Platform. You will focus on creating the technical vision for new and exciting features from the platform roadmap. You'll work alongside an innovative and diverse team of problem solvers who exhibit high energy, deep technical skills, and a drive to get things done. As a Principal Software Engineer, you will work closely with the architecture team to design and build the type of solutions Huntress has become known for, which are solutions that not only solve problems but drastically improve industry standards, workflows, and user experiences.

  • Develop a deep cross-product understanding of features and architecture
  • Own and drive performance impact of team/department solutions and the overall platform suite
  • Lead and develop high-quality scalable software, software designs, and architecture and set standards for team excellence
  • Focus on the entire life cycle of the system, including evolution, configuration, and risk management
  • Ensure code quality and test code coverage through code reviews and test plan reviews
  • Lead the team in providing accurate estimates and taking ownership over the timely completion of work
  • Mentor and coach junior engineers, fostering an environment that values professional development and promotes collaboration and engagement
  • Actively engage with the team and lead by being a positive role model

What You Bring To The Team:

  • 10+ years of experience developing complex software products
  • 8+ years of programming in Ruby on Rails
  • A BS in Computer Science or Engineering or equivalent experience gained through work
  • Experience in Agile or Scrum environment
  • Experience with JavaScript and CSS
  • Experience working with external APIs
  • Experience reviewing code, problem-solving, and technical troubleshooting
  • Experience working on Linux-based infrastructure
  • Experience with databases such as Postgres
  • A deep understanding of ActiveRecord (Rails)
  • Excellent technical, diagnostic, and troubleshooting skills
  • Ability to grasp new tools and technologies quickly
  • Effective communication and interpersonal skills
  • Ability to prioritize and execute multiple tasks at a time in a fast-paced environment, often operating independently
  • Ability to distill complex technical topics so that they can be shared and understood by a non-technical audience meaningfully
  • Ability to work cross-functionally between multiple teams
  • Passion for technology and strong motivation and responsibility for high-quality software features
  • Ability to build strong interpersonal relationships with product, development teams, leadership, senior management, and internal and external stakeholders

Helpful experience, but not required

  • Experience with AWS Cloud Environments
  • Experience with Stimulus, Turbo, and/or Hotwire (or similar frameworks)
  • Experience working in a Ruby on Rails monolith
  • A passion for building platform capabilities
  • Eagerness to work in Tailwind UI

What we offer:

  • 100% remote work environment - since our founding in 2015
  • Generous paid time off policy, including vacation, sick time, and paid holidays
  • 12 weeks of paid parental leave
  • Highly competitive and comprehensive medical, dental, and vision benefits plans
