Summary  
Data has never been more valuable and vulnerable. As cybercriminals become more sophisticated and regulations more strict, organizations struggle to answer one key question: “Is my data safe?”

We’ve built the industry’s first fully autonomous Data Security Platform to help our customers dramatically reduce risk with minimal human effort.
 
At Varonis, we move fast. We’re an ultra-collaborative company with brilliant people who care deeply about the details. Together, we’re solving interesting and complex puzzles to keep the world’s data safe.

As a key contributor, you will closely collaborate with our global DFIR, and engineering teams, actively participating in product development and reinforcing our global team operations.

  • Strong technical foundation of standard Information Technology concepts and services, including active directory environment. 
  • Experience working with multiple enterprise security solutions (e.g., SIEMs, Firewalls, IDPS, AV/EDRs, IAM, DLP, etc.)
