What are we looking for & about our team
At S1 were building towardsautonomous AI SIEM - helping SOC analysts achieve cybersecurity outcomes with greater accuracy and speed. To build it as an engineering organization we solve non-trivial scale and data problems with a unique blending of cloud distributed systems and SW optimization techniques and services. Our mission is to enhance customer safety by advancing the detection & investigation capabilities and automation across all their security data brought in one place (coming from both S1s security products and normalized from third-party data sources - and actionable in one SecOps platform with one data architecture and one UI). We strive to provide robust efficient and scalable solutions that elevate the overall security posture of our clients.
