Job Description
Why Rumble?
Rumble brings together the best of IT, security and networking technology to deliver amazing network discovery and asset inventory capabilities for modern enterprises.
An accurate network inventory is a fundamental building block of all security programs, yet most inventory products do a poor job of network-based discovery because they only see it as a stepping stone to the ârealâ product features. Legacy products work by sending sensitive credentials to every asset on the network and fail to handle todayâs hybrid environments. Without a solid inventory, most companies struggle with attack surface reduction, network management, and incident response.
Rumble Network Discovery is a product of Rumble, Inc. We are a fully virtual, high-growth startup based in the United States. Our founders each have over 20 years of experience growing companies in the information security industry, including Rapid7, Veracode, BreakingPoint Systems, and PGP.
Rumble has already proven its market fit. Rumble appeals to companies of all shapes and sizes; we have customers that range from museums to Fortune 500 technology companies. We serve the low-end of the market through eCommerce and the mid-market and enterprise segment through inside sales.
The Opportunity
Weâre building the engineering team to lead Rumble into the future. Our work is a mix of Go development, low-level protocol research, standard web technologies, PostgreSQL, and a mix of cloud technologies and integrations. Our platform is cloud-agnostic, can be self-hosted, and builds from a single repository. We ship daily and focus on incremental delivery with fast turnaround for customer requests and bug fixes. We bootstrapped to product market fit and recently raised a $5m venture capital round to accelerate our growth. The company was cash-flow positive in 2020.
Weâre looking for senior engineers that are excited about research-driven product development and want to help build a company focused on happy customers and product-led growth.
Position Summary
Weâre searching for senior engineers to grow our team! You will contribute to all stages of development, deployment, support, operations, and product planning. This position reports directly to the CEO today and will split into functional teams once the team expands. This is a growth opportunity for future engineering leadership as well as long-term individual contributors.
What Success Looks Like
Contribute your skills and knowledge to building, supporting, and operating an amazing product experience for our customers.
Learn as you go to understand customer needs, product structure, fingerprinting techniques, and network protocols.
Self-task and coordinate with the rest of the engineering team to move the product forward, solve customer challenges, and keep the platform running smoothly.
Work with customers to identify bugs, understand gaps in product functionality, and flag opportunities for improvement.
Work closely and communicate effectively with functional teams across the company to keep our customer experience aligned with product and sales operations.
To be successful in this role, you ideally have
A strong track record of building products that customers love.
5+ years of experience in programming-heavy engineering roles with a demonstrated ability to ship quality results, frequently.
Go programming experience is preferred, but if you have deep experience in other languages and are excited about learning Go, we can make that work too.
Extensive experience with web development (HTML, CSS, plain JS) and a solid understanding of the HTTP protocol and the web browser security model.
PostgreSQL database experience, but other SQL database experience is also applicable.
A solid understanding of standard development tools and processes, including Git and issue-management systems.
Confidence working with Linux instances for deployment and diagnostics.
Weâre a fully remote company but you need to be located in the US, with US citizenship or permanent residency for healthcare, payroll, and legal reasons.
Rumbleâs Benefits
We offer an extensive set of benefits including:
Competitive salaries and a stock option plan.
Top of the line medical, dental, vision, life and disability coverages with Rumble paying for 99% of the premium.
A flexible vacation policy.
401(k) match program.
Applying
To apply for this role, please send your resume and information about the products you have worked on to careers@rumble.run.
We encourage under-represented applicants to apply, even if you donât think you fit 100% of the criteria (nobody ever does)!

About HashiCorp
HashiCorp is a fast-growing startup that solves development, operations, and security challenges in infrastructure so organizations can focus on business-critical tasks. We build products to give organizations a consistent way to manage their move to cloud-based IT infrastructures for running their applications. Our products enable companies large and small to mix and match AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and other clouds as well as on-premises environments, easing their ability to deliver new applications for their business.
At HashiCorp, we have used the Tao of HashiCorp as our guiding principles for product development and operate according to a strong set of company principles for how we interact with each other. We value top-notch collaboration and communication skills, both among internal teams and in how we interact with our users.
Engineering at HashiCorp is largely a remote team. While prior experience working remotely isn't required, we are looking for team members who perform well given a high level of independence and autonomy.
About the Role:
On the Consul team, we help organizations automate network configurations, discover services, and enable secure connectivity across any cloud or runtime. The customers and large community of users of our tools are operators, infrastructure engineers, and software developers that encounter novel performance, scaling, and usability challenges that we help them solve.

Interface directly with internal teams, users and HashiCorp customers, as well as the larger Consul community.
Participate in user research studies and discussions with product managers and customers to better understand the network topologies, challenges, and constraints for which operators are trying to solve, and leverage those insights when approaching feature design and implementation.
Propose new functionality or substantive changes through written documents in an async process, describing the problem background, proposed implementation and example UX, then iterating on peer feedback collaboratively.
Own the full lifecycle of feature development from design through testing, release and support.
You may be a good fit for our team if you have:
Experience in a lower-level language like Go.
Familiarity with service-oriented architectures, and ideally have worked on an infrastructure or platform team building internal tooling to deploy, connect and monitor them.
Empathy for the people operating, learning, teaching and supporting software you write, and consider their experience when making design decisions and performance, security or complexity tradeoffs.
Awareness of the broader service mesh ecosystem and an interest in contributing to a full-featured product offering while reducing complexity and barriers to adoption for practitioners.
Curiosity for academic computer science research, particularly distributed systems papers such as Raft and Paxos variants, and enjoy learning more about the challenges of consistency at global scale.
Collaborate with peer engineers in discussions around performance, user experience, security and other constraints when designing complex systems.
What is our hiring process like?
The below serves as a basic outline; we may choose to add or remove steps based on the information that we gather during the process.
