Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom Darktrace Full time

Founded by mathematicians and cyber defense experts in 2013, Darktrace is a global leader in cyber security AI, delivering complete AI-powered solutions in its mission to free the world of cyber disruption. We protect more than 9,000 customers from the world’s most complex threats, including ransomware, cloud, and SaaS attacks.

Our roots lie deep in innovation. The Darktrace AI Research Centre based in our Cambridge, UK headquarters, has conducted research establishing new thresholds in cyber security, with technology innovations backed by over 130 patents and pending applications.

What will I be doing:

You will join the significant R&D teams in Cambridge that create and improve the products behind the company’s rapid growth. Our software engineers work across a wide variety of projects and with a diverse toolset.

• Contributing to projects ranging from the rapid prototyping of new ideas,

• Working to the solid structured development of existing platforms,

• Working towards the aim of furthering our unique methodology in defending against unknown cyber-attacks,

• Innovation is of paramount importance and as such, creativity in approach is encouraged as much as traditional project-based development,

• The role requires the core competency of python development but will expand to become more specialised in one or more areas of technology.

This is a hybrid role, and the expectation would be to work a minimum of 2 days a week in the Cambridge office.

What experience do I need:

• Experienced with statistical analysis of static or dynamic systems,

• Familiar with Docker,

• Knowledgeable about cloud computing environments would be beneficial.

Benefits we offer:

• 23 days’ holiday + all public holidays, rising to 25 days after 2 years of service,

• Additional day off for your birthday,
