## Job description

About Nightfall: Nightfall is the AI-native, unified data loss prevention and insider risk management platform that protects sensitive data across SaaS apps, GenAI tools, email, endpoint devices, and more. Hundreds of customers, spanning AI innovators to top 10 banks, trust Nightfall to detect and stop data exfiltration at scale. Nightfall enables organizations to innovate freely without the risks of losing intellectual property or exposing customer data. Our agentic platform helps security teams regain their time by putting data loss prevention on autopilot. With automatic remediation, security violations can be resolved automatically before they become incidents, and end-users can be automatically trained and coached in the moment to self-heal violations that they introduce. Nightfall is backed by leading VC firms including Bain Capital Ventures (Enrique Salem - former CEO of Symantec), Venrock (early investors in Cloudflare), WestBridge Capital, Pear VC (early investors in Dropbox and Doordash), and a cadre of cybersecurity leaders including Frederic Kerrest (founder of Okta), Maynard Webb (former COO of eBay), Ryan Carlson (President of Chainguard), Kevin Mandia (founder of Mandiant), and many others. About the role: The Technical Support Engineer is a customer-facing role responsible for troubleshooting, supporting, and optimizing SaaS platforms, as well as assisting with endpoint deployments. This role combines technical knowledge and customer service, ensuring issues are resolved within SLA, while helping our customers be successful.

## What You’ll Do

- Resolve customer issues across SaaS apps, APIs, and integrations
- Troubleshoot Nightfall integrations across SaaS platforms, such as Google Workspace, Gmail, M365, Slack, Salesforce, and more.
- Diagnose API issues including authentication, request/response errors, and data flow
- Support SIEM/SOAR integrations, webhooks, and automation workflows
- Troubleshoot endpoint deployments - MSI, PKG, macOS profiles, and scripts
- Support and troubleshoot deployments via MDM (Workspace ONE, Jamf, Kandji, Intune)
- Collect and analyze logs across system, application, and security layers
- Create and maintain knowledge base content using KCS practices
- Support customer deployments and onboarding engagements, including endpoint rollout, SaaS integrations, policy configuration, and detector setup.
- Support installs and help configure, and integrate the Nightfall platform within complex customer environments, including access controls and encryption.
- Partner closely with Engineering and Product to diagnose issues, provide clear repro steps, and drive platform improvements.
- Collaborate with Customer Success, Sales, and Solutions Engineering to retain our customers and grow the customer relationship through successful support.

## What We’re Looking For

- 4+ years of experience in a Technical Support, Technical Account Manager, or a similar SaaS role.
- Hands-on experience with security or data platforms such as DLP, SIEM, SOAR, CASB, or cloud security solutions.
- Strong troubleshooting skills and comfort working with APIs, integrations, logs, and SaaS/cloud architectures.
- Experience with macOS and Windows systems and installing endpoints and extensions
- Knowledge of PowerShell, Bash, or command-line tools
- Experience with integrations, and endpoint troubleshooting
- Ability to analyze logs and perform root cause analysis
- Experience in not only solving problems for customers but educating them clearly
- The desire to spin up a Zoom call with a customer instead of direct-messaging
- Have a contagious drive for working with an exciting DLP product from its infancy.

## Nice to Have

- Familiarity with AWS, GCP, or Azure environments.
- Proven startup experience of being successful in a fast-moving environment.

## Core Business
- **Industry**: Cybersecurity – Data Loss Prevention (DLP) & Insider Risk Management
- **Target Customers**: B2B, mid-market to enterprise (50-person startups to Fortune 500 companies)
- **Mission**: “Data protection has to work intelligently and invisibly, or it won’t work at all.” Nightfall aims to enable any company to secure sensitive data across every SaaS app, AI tool, and endpoint without disrupting workflows.

## Products & Services
- **AI-Native DLP Platform**: SaaS-based platform using 100+ AI models, LLM-based file classifiers, and computer vision to classify content with 95% accuracy. Includes data lineage tracking that traces information from source to destination.
- **API-Based SaaS Integrations**: Deploys in minutes across Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Slack, Salesforce, Atlassian, Zendesk, Notion, and more.
- **Endpoint Agents**: Lightweight agents for macOS and Windows (deployed via MDM) that monitor data movement and enforce policies.
- **Browser Plugins**: Real-time protection for AI apps (ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, DeepSeek, Claude, Perplexity, etc.) – blocks sensitive data from being pasted or uploaded.
- **Shadow AI Security**: Purpose-built to prevent data leaks to generative AI tools, including both prompts and file uploads.
- **Automated Remediation**: Context-aware actions such as blocking, redacting, revoking access, quarantining, or encrypting data. 80% of incidents resolved via automation or self-remediation.

## Market Standing
- **Total Funding**: $60.3M (as of CB Insights)
- **Latest Round**: $40M Series B (raised ~4 years ago)

## Competitive Advantages

- **Data Lineage**: Tracks data as it moves, transforms, or is copied – catches exfiltration that regex-based tools miss.
- **Rapid Deployment**: API-based integrations in hours; no network architecture changes; zero productivity disruption.
- **Continuous Learning**: Models improve automatically, reducing false positives over time.
- **Vendor Consolidation**: Replaces multiple legacy tools (regex DLP, CASB, endpoint DLP, etc.) with a single platform.

## Strategic Focus
- **Securing AI Adoption**: Blocking data leaks to generative AI tools (ChatGPT, Copilot, etc.) while enabling safe innovation.
- **Expanding MCP Visibility**: Monitoring data movement across AI agents, MCP servers, and new attack surfaces.
- **Reducing Operational Overhead**: Using automation and employee self-remediation (80% of incidents) to lighten security team workload.
