Job Description

Your Career

As a Senior Infrastructure Software engineer within our On-Prem platform team, you play a pivotal role in building a new on-premise platform for running Cortex products. You will design and develop an infrastructure that supports billions of events per second, storing, processing and making them accessible and visible to the user while collaborating with the industry’s leading cyber products.

Your crucial role goes beyond development, involving cross-organizational impact collaboration to ensure success. The great majority of the Cortex engineering group is located in the TLV office allowing us to operate at a high pace with short decision-making loops. In this role, you will need to be creative, innovative and demonstrate deep knowledge in Kubernetes, conducting research to find new technologies, with a can-do approach, and an internal drive for excellence and improvement.
