Senior Software Engineer

About Us

Malanta is redefining enterprise security for the pre-attack era. As the perimeter disappears and AI.Attacks accelerate, Malanta focuses on what happens before the breach: identifying and dismantling the infrastructure adversaries build to target enterprises. Instead of chasing alerts, security teams use Malanta to see what’s coming, act earlier and stay ahead of AI.Attackers that never make the news.

Expect cutting-edge tech, meaningful work, and a collaborative culture.
