Are you passionate about building high-performing teams and shaping a hiring culture that drives success?
Join Hadrian as a Talent Acquisition Specialist and help us hire the top talent that will help shape the future of offensive security.
We are Hadrian - an offensive cybersecurity startup. We are reshaping the future of cybersecurity through the power of agentic AI injected with the hacker’s perspective. Founded in August 2021, we've secured funding and the backing of ABN AMRO Ventures and Cherry Ventures, propelling us into a new era.
Our goal is to provide companies with an autonomous Threat Exposure Management platform. At Hadrian, we view security through a hacker's eyes because hackers understand hackers best. We continuously map the digital footprint of organisations, discover risks, and prioritise remediation for security teams to harden their external attack surfaces.
Located in Amsterdam's buzzing Leidseplein and by London's famous Paddington Station and our most recent US HQ in the heart of New York City, our diverse team from 25+ countries is on a mission to shake things up in offensive security. Join us in making waves and securing over 700 businesses, and be at the forefront of automated offensive security.
As a Talent Acquisition Specialist at Hadrian, you will play a key role in helping us build the teams that shape the future of offensive cybersecurity.
