Associate Counsel

Reports to: Director of Legal Affairs

Location: Remote

Compensation Range: $125,000 to $150,000 base plus bonus and equity

What We Do:

Founded in 2015 by former NSA cyber operators, Huntress was built on a simple premise: to force hackers to earn every inch of their access. 

Today’s cyber-attacks aren’t limited to large organizations with the security tools that can ward off threats. Hackers don't discriminate and will find a way to penetrate any vulnerability in any size business.  

Huntress enables IT providers and resellers to stop hidden threats that sneak past preventive security tools. 

Through a combination of expert human threat hunters, a comprehensive platform, and a desire to make the world a safer place, we’re working to deliver cybersecurity to the 99%—those small to midsize businesses that make up the backbone of our economy.  

Join the hunt and help us stop hackers in their tracks!
