Staff Technical Community Engagement Writer

Reports to: Sr. Director, Adversary Tactics

Location: Remote US

Compensation Range: $180,000.00 - $200,000.00 base plus bonus and equity

What We Do:

Cybercrime is growing, and more businesses are getting hit by threats that used to target only the biggest organizations. That pushes defenders like us to operate at the highest level, and it deepens our need for good people who want to make a meaningful impact.

Founded in 2015 by former NSA cyber operators, Huntress is a remote-first team working to make enterprise-grade cybersecurity accessible to businesses of all sizes. We work closely with security teams and service providers protecting complex environments, often without the time or headcount to handle it all. That’s why we build our technology in-house and back it with a 24/7 human-led Security Operations Center (SOC). As a result, our platform is never disconnected from the experts who manage it, ensuring our customers' protection.

Huntress now secures more than 5M endpoints and 11M identities worldwide. Those numbers keep growing because more businesses rely on us to help carry the load and operate with more confidence. Every day, you can see that commitment in how we stand with our customers and how we show up for each other.

What You’ll Do: 

The Huntress Security Team wakes up every morning knowing we make hackers regret targeting our partners and customers. As a Staff Technical Community Engagement Writer, you are the technical conscience of our marketing engine. You will sit at the intersection of deep security research and community education, ensuring that every piece of content we ship is both technically bulletproof and impossible to ignore. You will act as a force multiplier for our mission by taking raw intelligence from our researchers and turning it into high-impact narratives that help the community stay ahead of emerging threats.

In this role, you will give more than you take by delivering extreme value to the community through free, educational content that builds lasting trust. You will exercise candor to ensure our messaging remains authentic and free of corporate fluff, keeping our voice grounded in reality. Because the threat landscape moves fast, you will embrace perfect imperfection - iterating quickly on technical findings to get accurate, actionable information into the hands of practitioners while it matters most.
