Technical Marketing Engineer

Do you want to help make the world safe from cyber attack? 

At Corelight, we believe that the best approach to cybersecurity risk starts with the network.  Attackers can evade endpoint detection, firewalls and many other technologies - but they can’t avoid leaving digital footprints on the networks they traverse.  Built on open-source innovations from Zeek, Suricata and YARA and refined through years of real-world use,  Corelight transforms network footprints from physical, virtual and cloud networks into actionable insights.   Our customers use these insights to speed incident response and proactively hunt for threats.  

We are seeking a very talented, resourceful and collaborative person to join our Technical Marketing Engineering (TME) team.
