Competitive Compensation Packages
We offer competitive compensation packages with equity, depending on position, along with a generously matched retirement plan, PTO, paid sick time, and holidays.


The Role:

Halcyon’s goal is to deliver an anti-ransomware solution that breaks new ground as to what a security product can deliver.  Aligned with this goal, Halcyon is looking for an experienced engineer to contribute to the development of our Linux agent.  Our Linux agent is the main endpoint communications hub and analysis engine that is used to help ensure our customers are protected from the threat of ransomware.

Responsibilities:

  • Write code that can transform messages, process data, communicate over IPC channels, interface with components in different languages, and interact with Linux APIs and Web APIs

  • Diagnose code and create performance enhancements or improvements when the code incurs unacceptable overhead or when incompatibilities are identified

We understand it takes a diverse team of highly intelligent, passionate, curious, and creative people to develop the exceptional product we are building. Our dynamic team has incredible perspectives to share, just as we know you do, and we take great pride in being an equal opportunity employer.
