We are establishing a pair engineering team that collaborates closely with the US-based TippingPoint group to support and enhance our on-premises intrusion prevention solutions - Threat Protection System (TPS) and Security Management System (SMS).

In this role, you’ll take ownership of the end-to-end case-handling process - from triage and investigation to root cause analysis, code fix, verification, and release. You’ll work in a global environment that values technical depth, teamwork, and initiative, applying your skills to maintain and improve world-class network security products. As the team matures, you’ll also have opportunities to participate in new feature development.

Responsibilities:

  • Handle customer cases end-to-end: triage, reproduce, investigate, identify root causes, implement fixes, verify, and release patches
  • Collaborate closely with US TippingPoint engineers and global support teams for knowledge transfer and issue resolution
  • Work on C/C++ code base for TPS and Java code base for SMS, under Linux environments
  • Analyze logs, core dumps, and network traces to pinpoint defects or performance issues
  • Develop diagnostic tools, automation scripts, or internal utilities to improve triage efficiency
  • Maintain and enhance test coverage and release quality through automated testing
  • Contribute to documentation and share technical insights across global teams
  • Participate in future feature development once the team transitions beyond the sustaining phase

Qualifications:

  • BS/MS in Computer Science, Information Technology or related field
  • 3+ years of experience in software development or sustaining engineering
  • Proficiency in C/C++ (for TPS) and Java (for SMS), with solid understanding of Linux systems and networking fundamentals
  • Familiar with troubleshooting, debugging, and root cause analysis of large code bases
  • Experience with source control (Git), build systems, and CI/CD pipelines
  • Knowledge in network protocols (TCP/IP, VLAN, IPSec etc.) or intrusion prevention technologies is a plus
  • Strong communication skills in English for global collaboration

Personality & Mindset:

  • Self-motivated and curious learner who takes initiative to seek knowledge and clarify ambiguity
  • Analytical thinker with a problem-solving mindset and attention to detail
  • Proactive in cross-team communication and sharing findings
  • Resilient, responsible, and eager to grow in a fast-moving cybersecurity domain
