Senior Backend Engineer at Truffle Security

About us

TruffleHog is a popular open source tool used by security researchers all over the world to find leaky API keys and responsibly disclose them to affected companies. This provides income through bug bounty platforms like HackerOne to individuals that may otherwise have a hard time finding employment. This also prevents breaches from occurring, which can be very costly for companies to resolve.

When we founded Truffle Security Co in February of 2021, we committed to continue to grow a community with security researchers around the world, and continue to provide free and open resources to support those that make the world more secure. We have a strong commitment to open source and to the community. We’re looking for help supporting our mission to prevent leaking credentials and build the best products for machine identity protection.

At Truffle Security, you’ll have the opportunity to join a fully remote, collaborative team contributing to meaningful advancements in cybersecurity.

We’re looking for folks who are interested in being part of the journey to make the internet more secure. The internet is for all, and we believe that diverse experiences and people from all walks of life can contribute to this mission. That said, if what we’re doing resonates with your values, we’d love to have you apply even if you don’t check all of the boxes or match the job description to a tee.

Truffle strives to promote an equitable, inclusive, and psychologically-safe workplace for all who are interested in working with us. All job applicants will be considered throughout the employment process without regard to race, color, ethnicity, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender perception/identity, age, pregnancy or parental status, disability status, or any other basis prohibited by law. If you are an individual with disabilities and reasonable accommodation is needed throughout the interview process, or to perform essential job functions, please let your recruiter know.

Lastly, we ask that all applicants consider the opportunity to answer a few voluntary demographic questions on the job application. This helps us track the inclusivity of our recruiting initiatives. Answering these questions is entirely optional and your answers will not be shared with the hiring team and will not impact the hiring decision.

Note: Our organization participates in the US federal E-Verify program. We will provide the Social Security Administration, and if necessary, the Department of Homeland Security, with information from each new employee’s Form I-9 to confirm work authorization. We do not use this information to pre-screen job applicants.
