Help build the foundation of Abnormal's next generation of security products. The Abnormal Data Platform (ADP) is the core data organization layer that powers our ability to understand and secure enterprise behavior across cloud and SaaS environments. We're looking for a technical leader who can scale both our platform and our teams across global development centers.

You will join as a Director of Engineering reporting to our Senior Director of Engineering, David Hagar. In this role, you'll lead multiple engineering teams across US, Singapore, and Bangalore while building the platform that serves as the backbone for Abnormal's entire product portfolio.
