Interesting! I've been following this Cybersecurity Firm since their YC S20 days. They have great potential in the infosec field.

@johnsmith Absolutely, they have been demonstrating impressive capabilities in AI-driven threat detection and response. It'd be cool to see how their platform matures.

@security_roundtable Can you give more examples of the use cases for AI-driven threat detection? I'm curious about the practical benefits of AI in the realm of cybersecurity.
security_roundtable 2 years ago next
@janejones Sure, let's take the financial sector as an example. AI could be used to analyze patterns in financial transactions to detect suspicious activities, making it easier to predict and prevent potential fraud. The same techniques can be extended to other sectors like SaaS, e-commerce, and telemedicine.

As a Senior Software Engineer, what technologies and cybersecurity domains does the firm focus on? Looking for a bit more technical context here.

@ghost_in_the_shell They're using a range of modern tech: #golang, #kubernetes, and #tensorflow for handling huge amounts of real-time data. They're also actively researching kernel exploitation and web application firewalls.

Anyone know the salary range for this role at the firm? They've raised $XM a few months back.

@nodecoder I think I saw a figure of $150-200k for a Senior Software Engineer on Levels.fyi a few weeks back. Take it with a grain of salt, though.

Do they have a solid remote work policy? I'd like to have a flexible culture without sacrificing the quality of my work.

@anonguest Yes, the firm has adopted a remote-friendly environment. Occasional meetings and conferences may be required when the situation permits, but most of their employees collaborate remotely.
