Careers

Help patch up the internet

Heist replaces the annual pentest with continuous testing. We are a lean team building it in Europe. This page explains how we think, how we work and who we are looking for.

How we think

Principles we hire for

01

Intellectual honesty

We say what we think and we show our reasoning. When the evidence changes we change our minds.

02

A high bar for quality

We hold our work to a high bar. When something falls short we say so and fix it.

03

Scandinavian ethics

Flat, direct and fair. Everyone sees the full picture and gets a real say. We treat customers with the same honesty.

04

Show up with candor

We care enough about each other to be truthful and clear. We show up for our customers like we're part of their team.

What we build

Product pillars

We want to raise the bar for security everywhere. That only happens when every team can have it. Four pillars follow from that.

Pillar 01

Build for confidence

We combine deterministic verification with methodical use of intelligence. Confidence is built through an always up-to-date baseline and audit ready evidence for every endpoint.

Pillar 02

Make it effortless

We have our customers' backs, remove noise and otherwise get out of the way. We integrate thoughtfully and never create overhead or bloat by optimising for theoretical findings.

Pillar 03

Take on accountability

We are accountable for our customers. We show up fast, follow up and follow through. We treat our customers' security as our own.

Pillar 04

Price for the masses

Heist is priced for our mission to patch up the internet. We optimise for security per unit of currency, and happily leave money on the table for stickiness. Heist should always feel like more than you paid for.

Open roles

We're hiring for two tracks

Track 01

Engineers

The infrastructure behind continuous security is hard engineering. Thousands of tasks run concurrently without stalling or making noise. Checks must be deterministic and leave verifiable evidence. Our systems must explore and understand complex applications with minimal prior context. All of it has to feel simple to use.

Track 02

Security

Starting with pentesting, we build and deploy tooling that can save millions from exploitation. Attack scenarios grow more complex with every capability we add, and benchmarks keep the system honest about what it can and cannot find.
