Job Description
We’re looking for a Developer 3 to be part of making this happen.
You’ll work on the software stack that runs inside Arctic Wolf’s network sensors — physical appliances and
virtual sensors deployed across customer environments. The team owns everything from the on-sensor Go
services and Python tooling, to the AWS infrastructure that manages, monitors, and upgrades sensors at
scale. You’ll write code that ships inside customer networks, runs 24/7 without human intervention, and
needs to be correct the first time.
• Build and maintain on-sensor Go and Python services — daemons, config managers, upgrade
pipelines, and tunneling infrastructure
• Own AWS infrastructure used for sensor management: ECS services, CloudFormation stacks, EC2
instances, S3 artifact pipelines, and CloudWatch observability
• Improve and extend the CI/CD platform: Jenkins pipelines, Docker build environments, Robot
Framework cell tests that spin up virtual sensors on AWS/Azure/VMware and validate end-to-end
behaviour
• Debug hard problems: kernel networking (eBPF/XDP, Suricata, iptables), multi-platform VM
orchestration, Ansible-based sensor provisioning, and production incidents traced through
CloudWatch Logs Insights
• Contribute to sensor upgrade and deployment automation (Ansible, Debian packaging,
manifest-driven rollouts)
• Work across the full stack — from BPF maps pinned on a sensor’s kernel to ECS services in AWS
serving REST APIs to the portal
• 3–5 years of professional software development experience
• Strong AWS hands-on experience: EC2, ECS (Fargate + EC2 launch types), S3, CloudWatch (Logs,
Metrics, Alarms), CloudFormation or CDK, IAM
• Proficiency in Python — writing production services, CLI tooling, and test automation (Robot
Framework or pytest)
• Comfort with Linux systems programming: systemd, networking (iptables, interfaces, routing),
Debian packaging, shell scripting
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or equivalent) and Docker-based build
environments
• Strong debugging skills — able to trace a production problem from a CloudWatch log through to a
root cause in code
• Ansible for fleet configuration and provisioning
• Networking depth: VLANs, SPAN/TAP modes, DHCP, tunneling protocols (FRP, WireGuard)
• eBPF/XDP or kernel networking (Suricata, nmap, packet capture)
• Experience with VMware, Hyper-V, or Azure for infrastructure testing
• Familiarity with sensor/appliance software or embedded Linux
