Tenable | SF / Bay Area | ONSITE or REMOTE
Software Engineer, Sr. Software Engineer, Principal Engineer, Engineering Manager
We're hiring at all skill levels.
Tenable is a rapidly growing network security company. We’re expanding our engineering team to keep up with our rapid customer and revenue growth.
Tenable.io is the first comprehensive cyber exposure platform. You will be joining a team that is building a streaming data pipeline using Kafka and Java/Kotlin. This is a great opportunity to have a significant impact.
In terms of skills, you should be able to develop, deploy and maintain a microservice written in Java/Kotlin or another language that runs on the JVM, that exposes a REST API, calls other REST APIs, parses and produces JSON, reads/writes to/from a data store (PG/Aurora, or whatever). If you're applying to one of the more senior roles, then you should also understand how to instrument your code (telemetry, logs, etc.), and ideally understand retries with backoffs, ideally circuit breakers, etc. If you already know Kafka that's a plus. AWS, GCP or Azure experience is needed.
Interview process
We interview quickly. Our goal is 5-10 business days for the entire process.
- Cultural fit with Director Engineering (i.e. me)
- Technical interview with 2 peers
- Coding challenge (practical exercise similar to what you'll actually do)
- Decision
I'm the Director of Engineering, Ingest and Pipelines. You can reach me at aahmed @ tenable.com. Please put "HN" in the subject line.
