Senior Software Engineer - InsightIDR

SECURE ADVANCEMENT FOR ALL - This is the central guiding principle for each member of the Rapid7 team: What more can we do to help all of us live in a more secure world? With new technologies and environments seeming to emerge every day, keeping our networks secure has become more challenging, and more critical, than ever before. As a senior software engineer on the Boston InsightIDR team, youll be joining a smart, passionate team dedicated to this mission.

What Youll Be Building

InsightIDR is a cloud-based, microservice-designed architecture built with the mandate to ingest, monitor, and analyze log data from an organizations environment in real time in order to raise the alarm if and when attackers hack their way into their network. In security terms, we are committed to providing Blue Team defenders the best tools in the industry to detect and respond to attacks. Weve achieved a lot - InsightIDR is already acknowledged as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for our industry - but the threat landscape is always evolving, and we must continue to grow and improve our product along with it.

Our microservices are built on top of AWS technology designed to scale horizontally as our data processing requirements continue to grow. Youll be working at scale from the start. We are a successful product with heavy adoption, so any code we deploy will immediately be responsible for handling massive amounts of data from the moment it is turned on. And youll be deploying a lot: our CI/CD tools deliver new features into production multiple times a day; our Slack channel for release notifications is never quiet.

Our Terraform-described stack is mostly Java-based built over various data persistence and queue technologies, such as SNS/SQS, Kafka, ElasticSearch, MySQL-flavored RDS, Cassandra, MapReduce, and Athena.

What You Should Bring

To be a good fit for our team as a Senior Software Engineer, you should have:

  • A demonstrable passion for the craft of software development

  • Comfort with tools such as GitHub and Maven for building, storing, and reviewing code

  • A history demonstrating a team-based approach to problem solving

  • Experience defining contracts for coordinating development of software projects across multiple teams

  • A strong sense of ownership and responsibility for the quality of the software you create

  • Empathy for our users and the Rapid7 mission

  • 5-8 years of experience in software development, including active or recent Java experience

Even better if you have:

  • Interest and/or experience in the security industry

  • Interest and/or experience in cloud-based architecture

  • Experience with Spring and/or SpringBoot

  • Passion to collaborate with our wider teams (e.g. product, UX, support) to think strategically about how to solve problems for our users

We value diversity in our team and we are eager to accept applications for our engineers across all backgrounds and life experiences.

Employee Testimonials

"My favorite memory of being a 'Moose' is our first ever company-wide hackathon in Cambridge. After a fun–filled week for the company kick-off, we still managed to deliver, through the night, on some amazing ideas."

James Green   –   Senior Director, Software Engineering

"From my first onsite interview, it was clear that everyone on the Rapid7 Business Development team valued a strong team dynamic and all wanted to work together. This was something that aligned strongly with my values and expectations for my next opportunity and company."

Alexander Jordan   –   Sales Development Representative
Aniket Menon Rapid7

"I love the infectious energy and fast–paced nature of the job. Unrelenting progress towards becoming the #1 company in Cyber Security. The sheer number of Products and Services we have launched in the last two years is a staggering achievement."

Aniket Menon   –   Director, Product Management

"Rapid7 is truly unique. The culture here is like nowhere else; you are treated like a member of the team from the beginning. Everyone is invested in helping you learn and grow. The most exciting experience is getting to have a real world impact on customers."

Tara McAllister   –   UX Design Intern

“It’s not just the customer who benefits from the culture of compassion. Internally, Rapid7 employees look out for each other and work together to solve problems. Oftentimes, this ends up helping all parties. ”

Becky Anzalone   –   Senior Manager, Customer Success Management

"After 8 years, I’d expect to see growth opportunities to slow down. Rapid7 has always given me everything I need to take on new challenges. From intern to team lead, I’ve seen so much growth and the culture always puts us first."

Erran Carey   –   Lead Software Engineer
