GreyNoise Careers

In September 2021, the Operations team at GreyNoise held individual chats with each Company employee to better understand, & identify with, the employee experience. These insights were only meant to be communicated internally. But then we thought..

What if we shared the same presentation publicly, giving people outside of the Company an unfiltered, honest lens into what life is actually like at GreyNoise?

At GreyNoise, you get:

Equity in a high-growth, Series A startup.

100% covered health, dental, vision, and life plans for all employees.

Competitive 401k employer match of 6%. This will be 100% matched and vested from day 1.

Unlimited paid time off. To encourage time off from work and ensure overall employee health and wellness, GreyNoise strongly recommends each employee to take at least 120 hours of PTO (3 weeks) annually, including at least five consecutive business days.

Remote-first culture. While we are headquartered in the Washington DC area, we have a distributed workforce – with the majority of our team working remotely from across the country.

Equipment budget. Every new employee gets $3,000 to spend on equipment, so you can pick whatever works best for you.

Paid family leave for all employees. We offer 4 months of paid leave (birth or adoption), plus 2 months of optional unpaid leave, so new parents have time to adjust to the new life (and work) schedule.

Learning & development budget. All employees receive an annual $1,500 towards professional development related to their job function. The stipend can be applied to tuition, books, conferences, and more.

Company offsites and monthly local hangouts to encourage team bonding.

Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

GreyNoise culture is rooted in transparency, communication, and community. We believe these core tenets enable diversity, equity, and inclusion.

We also believe in leadership by example and delivering impact to the communities of which we are a part. As we grow and learn, we are focused on creating and maintaining an inclusive environment through our hiring, retention, and recognition processes for all GreyNoise employees. To learn more about our culture and the work we’re doing, we encourage you to check out our principles.

Salary negotiation 101

Here at GreyNoise, we pride ourselves in offering an exceptional candidate experience from the moment you first learn about us. One integral part of that experience is a healthy discussion around salary/compensation, which is addressed in the first conversation you have with us.

While we always strive to ensure our salary/compensation ranges are within, or exceed, market expectations for our company's size and stage, to be honest -- we don't always get it right. And that's where we invite you to know that negotiating salary/compensation is absolutely on the table at the time we extend an offer, if necessary. Here are some resources you can utilize to help prepare for these conversations:

‍At the end of the day, we are always looking for dedicated, passionate folks with exceptional talent, good hearts and an interest in building a fantastic, sustainable company. If that sounds exciting and is something you want to be a part of, we encourage you to apply today!

GreyNoise tells security analysts what not to worry about. We collect, analyze and label data on IPs that saturate security tools with noise. This unique perspective helps analysts confidently ignore irrelevant or harmless activity, creating more time to uncover and investigate true threats.
