Job description

FireMon delivers Network Security Policy Control for the Modern Enterprise.

Most enterprises run firewalls from multiple vendors alongside cloud security groups and microsegmentation platforms, and no single console can say whether it all works together. We believe policy is the control plane for network security: it defines what the environment should do, and the infrastructure carries it out. FireMon gives security teams one place to see, govern, and prove that their policy is doing what they intend, across on-prem, cloud, and hybrid environments 

The Device Engineer will work with Product Management and other Engineers to design, develop, and maintain network device integration software.
