  • Experience with vulnerability management tooling and remediation SLA programs
  • Comfortable operating independently in a distributed team; strong written English
  • Demonstrated experience leveraging AI tools and technologies to improve workflows, enhance decision-making, or drive innovation

Nice to have

What you get

  • Performance bonus opportunities and employee referral rewards
  • Flexible Time Off (FTO) and 13 paid public holidays aligned with the Czech calendar
