Your pumpkins got smashed by teen hooligans. Someone ate all of the Reese's and left only that coconut garbage candy behind. Your frustration has you thinking about the bigger picture.

NCC Group is constantly hiring security consultants from ALL backgrounds to join our team. If you’re a tinkerer, a breaker rather than a builder, or someone who wonders “why” and ends up down the rabbit hole 36 hours later with a disassembled air conditioning unit surrounding them... we’d love to hear from you! Our process welcomes those with years of experience, as well as those with little to no direct experience in what we do.

The bottom line: if you love security and research, NCC Group just may be a perfect fit for you.

What do we do exactly? Penetration testing, security analysis, and cutting-edge research into current technologies and attacks (breaking things). You spend most of your day thinking about security systems and how they can break. You get to be creative and have a lot of freedom to be clever while learning new technologies at a very fast pace. Engagements are usually 2-4 weeks long and in a year you will be exposed to 15-20 products and technology stacks. Your work will typically initiate person-months of security improvements in products millions of people use. You will have access to senior engineers/architects and your findings/ideas will be heard by senior decision makers. You will have enormous impact in making the software people use safer. All of our consultants are also security researchers, with dedicated research time. Not too shabby!

NCC Group Recruiting Team

We're looking for our fifth engineer, and it's a rare opportunity - the equity, influence, and fun of an early-stage company, with stability, great pay, and a low-stress, engineering-driven culture. We have great backers, strong traction, and an 11-digit target market.

At one level, we're a server operations tool: log analysis, system metrics, dashboards and alerting. Underneath, we're building a super-high-speed distributed columnar database that enables interactive (subsecond) exploration of terabyte datasets; fronted by a lean, mean web UI.

Users love our product, because it's fast, powerful, and straightforward. We love building our product, because we get to tackle fun challenges and we have customers who appreciate it. I've built half a dozen startups, including Writely (aka Google Docs), and I can honestly say this is my favorite so far.

If you're interested in working on large-scale data filtering and aggregation, distributed systems, and extreme performance - drop me a line at steve@scalyr.com! Or stop by https://www.scalyr.com/careers for more info.
