Tanium | Emeryville, CA (SF) or Morrisville, NC (RTP) or REMOTE

https://www.tanium.com/careers/?gh_src=qprker8f1

Tanium’s product is basically computer security & management software for government and large enterprises. It’s orders of magnitude faster than most competition, and customers love it. Fortune called us the “Usain Bolt of cyber­security” [1], and Forbes put us at #4 on the Cloud 100 list [2].

The former CIO of the US Air Force, said that Tanium is “game-changing … allowing a tremendous amount of automation and reduced workloads for our network operations people significantly, meaning things that used to take them months is now down to seconds, or minutes.” [3] The USAF used Tanium to patch all of their systems for WannaCry in 41 minutes and consider any system without our software as “high risk”. [4]

Fortune featured us as one of the best places to work [5], and the Great Place to Work survey gave us top marks for challenges, atmosphere, rewards, pride, and communication [6].

Benefits include healthcare, 401k match, self-directed/unlimited vacation time (most folks take 4-5 weeks), paid time off for volunteering, extensive parental leave, fertility and adoption benefits, and more.

Compensation is near FAANG levels with strong base pay, large annual bonuses, and equity in the form of RSUs. The recruiting team can share more details there.

We get everyone together 4 times a year to keep the remote staff from feeling too remote, and most teams do zoom calls for standup 2-3 times a week.

We have roles open in Engineering, Technical Account Management, Security, Sales, Legal, Marketing, Finance, HR, Accounting, and more. I called out a few interesting positions below.

Feel free to ask me about anything, reply here or email nathan.friedly@[company site].

Senior Software Engineer – Tanium’s Product Engineering is an all-star team with a quality-focused culture. I’ve never felt like I was the smartest guy in the room here.

Every PR requires a code review and passing of automated testing before merging, and the ticket is later followed up with a verification to ensure the changes actually met the requirements.

No one says “not my job”, and depending on what you’re doing, you might find yourself writing C++, JavaScript (Node.js, React, AngularJS), Python, Go (golang), or Rust – I did all but one of those within the past year. (95% of my work is JS, though – you do mostly stick to your job 😉

Engineering Services Engineer – This is a new role in response to customer demand, where we’re managing Tanium software directly for customers instead of only training and advising their employees.

In particular, we are looking for a number of IT Professionals with Top Secret or Sensitive Compartmented Information clearance (TS/SCI) in support of one of our Federal customers in the Ft. Meade area.

US Remote or on site in Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Fort Meade, San Antonio, Scottsdale, or Tampa.

Associate or Director of Technical Account Management – The TAM organization is central to our company, and doesn’t have any real parallels that I’m aware of. As a TAM, you’d be expected to set up a home lab with a network of machines (or VMs) running our software, and you’d be primarily responsible for advising 2~5 customers on how best to use Tanium. However, TAMs come from all kinds of backgrounds including sysadmin, ops, programming, and security, and really work together as a team to support each other and meet the needs of each customer.

(Note: “Director” is indicative of the responsibility level, but Director TAM is not a people-managing role.)

The organization also has open roles for Customer Success, Solutions Architect, and Enterprise Integration Developer.

On site or remote in Austria, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, UK, or USA.
