- Partner directly with enterprise customers to understand requirements and drive successful deployments.
- Build and maintain integrations with APIs, webhooks, identity providers, SIEM/SOAR platforms, and other enterprise systems.
- Troubleshoot authentication and enterprise integration issues (OAuth, SAML, SCIM, etc.).
- Own multiple customer projects simultaneously, coordinating across engineering, product, and customer-facing teams.
- Translate customer feedback into scalable product improvements.
- Build internal tooling that accelerates onboarding, deployment, and operational workflows.
- Create and maintain documentation, dashboards, and best practices for customer deployments and integrations.

## What we’re looking for

- Strong software engineering background with experience building production applications (Python preferred).
- Familiarity with AI application development, LLM APIs, or workflow automation is a strong plus.
- Comfortable working directly with enterprise and non technical customers to solve technical problems.
- Strong understanding of enterprise authentication and integrations (OAuth, SAML, SCIM, webhooks, REST APIs).
- Proven ability to manage multiple projects and stakeholders simultaneously.
- Excellent communication and organizational skills, with the ability to bridge technical and non-technical teams.
- Product-minded, highly autonomous, and comfortable working in a fast-paced startup environment.

## About Doppel

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Doppel is an AI-native platform for social engineering defense, protecting organizations from AI-powered impersonation, phishing, fraud, and multi-channel attacks.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series A/B stage)
- **Headquarters**: New York, NY, USA
- **Founded**: 2022
- **Founders**: Not publicly disclosed on company materials

## Core Business
- **Primary industry/industries**: Cybersecurity (Social Engineering Defense, Digital Risk Protection, Email Security)
- **Target customers**: B2B — Security Operations Centers (SOCs), enterprise security teams, executive leadership
- **Mission or purpose statement**: "Protecting the world from social engineering attacks every day."

## Products & Services
- **Digital Risk Protection (DRP)**: Detects and eliminates external threats across social media, domains, marketplaces, and beyond, using autonomous action to disrupt attacks before they reach executives, customers, or revenue.
- **Human Risk Management**: Strengthens employees against real attacker tactics (deepfakes, vishing, multi-channel pretexting) via training and simulation.
- **Email Security**: Agentic detection and response powered by the Doppel Threat Graph — catches what traditional filters miss and stops campaigns in their tracks.
- **Phishing Triage**: Uses agentic AI to turn employee-reported signals into machine-speed remediation and defense.
- **Security Awareness Training**: Tailored, deepfake-enabled, threat-informed training and personalized coaching.
- **Simulation**: Realistic phishing simulations that reveal real vulnerabilities and build response readiness.
- **Executive Protection**: Continuous monitoring of personal data exposure and threat activity across open and dark channels for high-risk leaders.
- **Brand Protection**: Continuous detection and disruption of impersonation and fraudulent activity across digital channels.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Total Funding**: Not disclosed. Backed by prominent investors including **Bessemer Venture Partners**, **Andreessen Horowitz (a16z)**, **Amex Ventures**, **NTT DOCOMO Ventures**, **Strategic Cyber Ventures**, **9Yards Capital**, **Sozo Ventures**, **SVAngel**, and others.

## Competitive Advantages

- **Doppel Threat Graph**: Graph-driven intelligence continuously ingests billions of signals, linking disparate incidents into a single attack story, enabling faster, more accurate detection.
- **Agentic AI automation**: Autonomous disruption of attacker infrastructure, not just detection — allows SOC teams to scale without adding headcount.
