Work In Tech

At Flare, we are a mission-driven team, passionate about empowering companies to protect themselves against cybercrimes.

It's in the moments when someone is pleasantly surprised by how seamlessly a product fits into their daily life and realize how faster and more efficiently they can manage triage, investigate and remediate cyberthreats. We believe that moment is the start of truly remarkable design.
