Company mission

Tanium's mission is to provide manageability and security at scale for anything with a chip.

Role

Who you are

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
  • CS Degree preferred
  • 5+ years industry experience
  • Experience designing and building high-impact, high-performance, scalable, observable, and maintainable backend services and APIs
  • Knowledge of at least one of Golang (preferred), Node.js, Python, Ruby, or Rust
  • Experience with HTTP API design and development
  • Experience with modern software engineering development and automation tools like git and Jenkins
  • Experience with React, Typescript, Javascript, and other front-end technologies and frameworks

What the job involves

  • As a Full-Stack Senior Software Engineer at Tanium, you will build and maintain best-of-breed products as part of a nimble development team
  • Build and maintain Tanium's products alongside an agile development team. Most backend is Golang and node.js
  • Design, develop and test new product ideas from the ground up while working with product management for feedback and input
  • Work on small teams that tackle big challenges in common components like a common data service tasked with unifying and consolidating endpoint data across the entire ecosystem, handling time series data that drive dashboarding and reporting, and exposing data externally through GraphQL enabling partners (like Salesforce) to easily integrate
  • Delivering higher level services enabled by our core services that directly enable our products and focus on everything from security to operations to auditing

Our take

For millions of companies, cyber security is high on the agenda, especially as remote working has become the norm. Tanium offers a security and systems management platform that allows real-time data collection at an enterprise scale. It covers customers such as AutoNation, GoDaddy, and Whirlpool who use the company’s software to stay abreast of the ever-increasing level of sophisticated cyber attacks.

A valuable tool for enterprises and government organisations, it partners with leading platforms and service providers across the world like Google Cloud, Oracle and Verizon. In doing so, it allows security and IT teams access to accurate information on the state of endpoints, helping it to realise new levels of business resilience.

Tanium added a former US Defence Secretary to its Board in 2021. A collaboration with Salesforce provided a platform that supports IT service management, remote monitoring and management, and cybersecurity capabilities. In the same year, the appointment of CFO Mark Levine could signal an IPO in the near future.
