We created Falco, the open standard for cloud threat detection, and continue to lead the cloud security market with runtime insights, open innovation, and agentic Al. Creators of technology trusted by over 60% of the Fortune 500, Sysdig gives teams the real-time clarity to move fast and defend what matters most. We believe diversity fuels stronger ideas, and open dialogue drives sharper decisions. Recognized as a Best Place to Work and one of Deloitte's fastest-growing companies for the past 5 years, we're here to raise the standard for what cloud security and workplace culture should be. Reporting to the Director of Engineering, you will lead and grow a team of engineers , owning technical direction plus hiring, growth, and performance for the people on your team who build Sysdig's runtime agent, the software customers install directly in their environments and Sysdog's the primary data source.
You will review designs and code across the team, unblock engineers on the hardest problems, and stay hands-on with the most technically demanding, cross-cutting work yourself.
You will partner with product, detection and security research teams to guarantee new functionality into our runtime agent without regressing performance or stability in production. What You Will Bring With You You have experience leading a team of engineers: hiring, mentoring, and managing performance while staying technical enough to set direction and review the work yourself.
You have extensive experience building and operating low-level, performance-critical systems software (C, C++) that runs continuously in production on customer infrastructure as well as working experience with containerized and orchestrated systems (kubernetes, containerd, familiarity with cgroup). Proficiency on Linux internal is required.
