Do your proudest moments come from seeing your teams pull together to deliver something outstanding? Are you excited by the challenge of bringing order to the galaxy by driving a solid data platform strategy? If so, read on!
At Expel, we help businesses bridge the cybersecurity talent gap by providing transparent managed security.

We delight in using technology and solid design to make security accessible (nay, even enjoyable) for our customers.
We're looking for that special someone who loves to lead and inspire engineering teams to deliver clean, secure, and sustainable solutions. Your considerable engineering and management experience has given you a deep understanding of what it takes to build software and feel satisfied doing it. You recognize the importance of balancing efficient, cost-effective, scalable delivery with productive collaboration and experimentation.
Our engineering leaders value intelligent execution over heroics, innovation through rapid iteration, and being actively inclusive and supportive. We deliver consistently, and we use data to measure quality and drive us to always get better at what we do. If this sounds like the kind of team you'd like to join, we'd love to hear from you!
