Surefire Cyber is redefining the incident response model by delivering a swifter, stronger response to cyber incidents such as ransomware, email compromise, malware, data theft, and other threats. Our client-centric approach reduces stress and provides clients the confidence needed to prepare, respond, and recover from cyber incidents – and fortify their cyber resilience after an event.
Surefire Cyber’s approach and delivery are designed by industry veterans who have worked shoulder-toshoulder with law firms, insurance carriers, brokers, law enforcement, and impacted organizations in responding to cyber incidents. We are marshaling this experience to address the industry’s persistent challenges of efficiency, predictability, and transparency
Surefire Cyber is looking for a Senior Software Engineer (AI Software and Ops) to build greenfield applications in Python using agentic methods, own critical infrastructure, and ship production software across the full stack. Reporting to the Head of Engineering, you will write code, make architecture calls, and operate the systems you build. This is a startup, and the right person thrives in ambiguity, prototypes fast, iterates in tight loops, and ships working software every sprint.
The right person is a full-stack generalist who writes production-quality code, has strong opinions on how to build and run infrastructure, and is genuinely excited about what agentic AI makes possible. You will work across the entire engineering surface: Python backends, React frontends, AWS infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and AI-driven workflows. Surefire is AI-native by design, and you will operate with the teamwork, tenacity, and empathy that define how we work.
You will serve as an individual contributor across engineering projects in flight, including support of existing Python/React applications in active use by customers and new builds. The team operates on a 2-week sprint cadence.
Agentic Engineering and AI-First Systems
Full-Stack Development, APIs, and Integration
Infrastructure, DevOps, and Security
You have code in production by the end of your first sprint. Within 30 days, you have a working mental model of the environment and have started closing the highest-leverage gaps. You ship consistently, ask good questions, and make the systems around you better every week.
Required
Strongly Preferred
Expertise in all these areas is not required, but you should be excited by the opportunity to learn new things and comfortable working with other team members to expand your knowledge base and experience. We at Surefire Cyber invite you to apply even if you do not feel you have mastery in all the requirements listed on the job description and welcome a further discussion.
Note: Internship roles are not eligible for Surefire’s full-time benefits package. Internship-specific details will be shared during the interview process.
