You will be expected to mentor other team members, and to actively participate in knowledge transfers both internal and external to the team. In addition, this role will require you to take initiative to identify and solve important issues facing our customers. Ultimately, you will work alongside the leaders within the team to set the technical direction and influence decision making that would have a direct impact on the product.

You have a passion for stopping criminals and making this a safer cyber world
