Description

What we do:
Halcyon is the industry’s first dedicated, adaptive security platform that combines multiple proprietary advanced prevention engines along with AI models focused specifically on stopping ransomware.

Who we are:
Halcyon was formed in 2021 by a team of cyber industry veterans after battling the scourge of ransomware (and advanced threats) for years at some of the largest global security vendors. Comprised of leaders from Cylance (now Blackberry), Accuvant (now Optiv), Fireye and ISS X-Force (now IBM), Halcyon is focused on building products and solutions for mid-market and enterprise customers.

As a remote-native, completely distributed global team, we recognize great talent can exist anywhere. We invite you to apply to a job you’re interested in and we'll work a plan to meet your needs.

The Role:

Halcyon’s goal is to deliver an anti-ransomware solution that breaks new ground as to what a security product can deliver.  Aligned with this goal, Halcyon is looking for an experienced engineer to contribute to the development of our cloud applications and specifically our data platform and cloud infrastructure which provide the foundation for the solution.  Our data platform provides our other cloud engineering teams the foundation upon which we build all of our cloud solutions.

Responsibilities:

  • Feature Development: Assist in the design, implementation, testing, deployment, and maintenance of new and existing data platform features.

  • Developer Experience: Enhance the experience for developers within the team, ensuring a productive and collaborative environment.

  • Interface with API and Applications Teams: Coordinate with API and cloud applications developers. Ensure that the needs of the API and Cloud Applications teams are being met by the data platform.

  • Team Building and Expansion: Actively participate in the recruitment and growth of the Data Platform development team.

  • Code Quality: Maintain high standards for code quality and documentation.

  • Innovation and Continuous Improvement: Continuously explore new techniques and tools to improve development processes.

  • System Reliability Experience: Design for sustainable reliability and monitor the data platform for issues or degradation and respond appropriately and responsibly

Skills and Qualifications:

  • Experience building data processing platforms using a modern programming language and common data processing libraries

  • Experience interfacing with a variety of databases and data stores

  • Experience with streaming data processing

  • Experience deploying infrastructure and applications in AWS

  • Experience collaborating with other engineering teams on integration and architectural design

  • Experience deploying applications on Kubernetes with Helm (or similar tooling)

Bonus Skills and Qualifications:

  • Experience building data processing applications in Scala/Kotlin/Java or Rust

  • Experience with Terraform, GitLab, and/or ArgoCD

  • Experience with OpenSearch/ElasticSearch, Postgres, DynamoDB, and/or Kafka

In accordance with applicable state and federal laws, the range provided is Halcyon’s reasonable estimate of the base compensation for this role.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
