Do you want to help make the world safe from cyber attack?
At Corelight, we believe that the best approach to cybersecurity risk starts with the network. Attackers can evade endpoint detection, firewalls and many other technologies - but they can’t avoid leaving digital footprints on the networks they traverse.

Our customers use these insights to speed incident response and proactively hunt for threats.As the Technical Lead - SRE you will collaborate with development and quality engineering to build and maintain our continuous integration pipeline from development to production.
