About Netskope

Today, there's more data and users outside the enterprise than inside, causing the network perimeter as we know it to dissolve. We realized a new perimeter was needed, one that is built in the cloud and follows and protects data wherever it goes, so we started Netskope to redefine Cloud, Network and Data Security.

Since 2012, we have built the market-leading cloud security company and an award-winning culture powered by hundreds of employees spread across offices in Santa Clara, St. Louis, Bangalore, London, Paris, Melbourne, Taipei, and Tokyo. Our core values are openness, honesty, and transparency, and we purposely developed our open desk layouts and large meeting spaces to support and promote partnerships, collaboration, and teamwork. From catered lunches and office celebrations to employee recognition events and social professional groups such as the Awesome Women of Netskope (AWON), we strive to keep work fun, supportive and interactive.Visit us at Please follow us on and Twitter.

About the role

The Platform R&D organization builds new applications and enhancements to develop Netskope's security cloud infrastructure and networking, emphasizing software-defined networking, automation of provisioning and configuration, as well as resiliency and performance. The innovations originated within Platform R&D make new capabilities available to Netskope's Platform and Engineering teams, and contribute to the world class products we offer to our customers.
