Why join us?

  • Experienced team + YC backed

    Our founding team has nearly 20 years of combined experience in cloud security at places like Vimeo, PlanGrid, and Autodesk. We're also a YC S20 company looking to build an amazing product that changes the way cloud and SaaS security is done.

  • Ownership and impact

    You will influence and drive technical and product decisions that will leave a lasting impression on the company - and the industry - for years to come. What amazing thing will you build next?

  • People first. Period.

    One of our values we share with pride. We lead with empathy and reflect with humility. We know our customers and coworkers equally as well. Attending a coworkers Thanksgiving is mostly normal.

Engineering team and processes

We work in 2-week planning sprints but sometimes change it up. We concisely sync every morning as a small company and ideas flow freely (but we don't ramble into nothingness). We let the best idea win and thrive by being able to disagree and commit.

Nothing is impossible but we know our limits so we can push them. Once a week, we have a company all-hands where we discuss top priorities like specific customer requests and hear more detailed updates from the wider group.

We are continually improving our processes around code reviews, documentation, testing, and dev tooling. We aim to ship code daily. Everyone contributes - the CEO asking for someone to review his PR is mostly normal.

Technical Challenges

Maintaining a modular platform that normalizes scanner code from outside developers while supporting integrations to eventually hundreds of cloud services and APIs (all while maintaining quality, availability and security). A single scanners code may be responsible for millions of scan across customer environments.

An ongoing, exciting engineering challenge we love getting right consistently!

Working at Vectrix

We're an experienced team of thinkers and doers with a passion for bringing security and people together. We value new ideas and find that learning everyday is just as essential as breathing. Some of our values include:

Do the right thing, always - Even when it's hard. Even when no one is watching. Even when it may hurt or be uncool. We value the legacy we'll leave on people we interact with and reflect on such impacts often.

Cohesion over correctness - We win together. And when we get it wrong, we do so together. And then we fix it. Together. When we don't see eye to eye, we disagree and commit.

Default to action - We will have won or lost not by what we did not do, but by what action we took. We strike the perfect balance of knowing when to pause to think critically and shipping with haste. We value growth over perfection. Speed is an ally. We celebrate our wins, but for just long enough. Momentum, momentum, momentum!
