This Role

Recorded Future is a guardian of the internet. We defend against cyber attacks by analyzing the open web, deep web, and dark web.

We implement crucial harvesting capabilities, manipulate our data structures to obtain solutions and insights, and explore new use cases and capabilities for the data. We’re looking for smart and ambitious people with a strong engineering foundation and a quantitative mindset to help us take this on. In this role, you will implement new techniques for extracting high fidelity information from our vast collection of data, and what you build will become part of our Threat Intelligence product to help our customers stay protected. You will join a team of motivated people working on a tough problem, and help us shine a light into the dark corners of the internet.
