Join our team...

The Threat Research team collaborates with all GoDaddy cybersecurity teams to surface actionable intelligence to foster rapid triage of security risks, threats and incidents and enables data-driven decisions that improve our prevention and detection posture.

We’re looking for a passionate software developer / threat researcher who loves to dive into technology and pull it all apart to see how it works, then put it back together again better than it was before. We treasure curiosity, communication, passion for security, a bias towards collaboration and action and the desire to embrace and extend standard methodologies and patterns. You can develop novel new software libraries, features and entire services or applications from scratch with little direction and can design and socialize important software updates across the team and organization. If you’re the kind of person who can’t see something that isn’t right without a compulsion to make it at least just a little bit better before you put it back, we want to talk to you!

• Learn and apply Threat Intelligence tradecraft leading to well informed cybersecurity and business decisions
• Design and deliver cloud security product technologies for our threat intelligence platform

• Knowledge of programming languages may include: Python, Go, Java, C, Javascript (NodeJS), etc.
• Knowledge of CI/CD tools and standard methodologies (Jenkins, Pipelines)
• Familiarity with Agile (Scrum) software development, Git/GitHub, and related tools

We've got your back...
