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 Engineering Rapid Development Team owns the design and delivery of core capabilities and improvements that power Dropzone AI’s autonomous investigation platform. This role is pivotal in maintaining and expanding our SOC agents and ensuring the platform is ready to face a wide array of customer environments in an evolving security landscape.

 

What you'll do

  • Lead the design and development of platform capabilities and code fixes that enable our AI agents to autonomously investigate and respond to security alerts
  • Evolve the investigation logic and pipelines to handle new classes of security alerts, balancing accuracy, performance, and maintainability
  • 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 provide input on technical direction, prioritize features, and ensure we’re solving the most impactful problems for defenders
  • Drive quality through automated testing, performance monitoring, and secure coding practices
  • Periodically participate in a 24x7 on-call rotation
  • Build into and improve the product by writing investigation flows, building integrations with security tools, and fixing bugs
  • Collaborate with customer facing teams,to provide fixes for customer pain points, or security tooling limitations

 

Requirements

  • Proven experience designing, building, and maintaining security-focused software products or large-scale security tooling
  • Strong development skills in Python, with the ability to produce clean, maintainable, production-grade code
  • Proficiency with AI coding tools, and agentic workflows
  • Familiarity working with clients to deliver fixes that balance long term product goals and maintainability
  • Expertise integrating with and building on top of security platforms (e.g. SIEMs, SOAR, EDR, cloud security services)
  • Solid understanding of modern security operations practices, detection engineering, and common attack techniques and vulnerabilities
  • Demonstrated ability to lead end-to-end feature development from sparse problem definitions to thoughtful design, implementation, testing, and deployment
  • Comfortable making decisions balancing both rapid delivery and long-term maintainability
  • Early-stage startup mindset. You thrive on ambiguity, move with lightspeed execution, and can translate ambiguity into shipped features that move the business
