About HackerOne
What is HackerOne?
HackerOne is the global leader in hacker-powered security, helping organisations find and fix critical vulnerabilities before they can be exploited. The platform connects companies with the world's largest community of ethical hackers, who continuously test for and identify security flaws across web apps, APIs, mobile apps, and AI systems.
Founded in 2012 in San Francisco, HackerOne pioneered bug bounty programmes for the modern enterprise. Customers include the U.S. Department of Defense, Goldman Sachs, GitHub, General Motors, Hyatt, and Microsoft. The company has paid out over $300 million in bounties to hackers worldwide.
Where will I work?
HackerOne is digital-first with a fully distributed, remote workforce across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. Hubs include San Francisco, Washington DC, London, and the Netherlands, with team gatherings hosted regularly for collaboration and connection.
What is the HackerOne team like?
The team is mission-driven, global, and shaped by the company's hacker culture — curious, transparent, and security-obsessed. HackerOne's annual Hack Week, where employees adopt the hacker mindset to improve internal systems and processes, is widely credited with helping the company win Fast Company's Best Workplace for Innovators award.

HackerOne offers a flexible, async-friendly working environment built around its digital-first culture.
