Palo Alto Networks Principal Software Engineer (Product Security) in Bangalore, India
Our Mission
At Palo Alto Networks® everything starts and ends with our mission:
Being the cybersecurity partner of choice, protecting our digital way of life.
Our vision is a world where each day is safer and more secure than the one before. We are a company built on the foundation of challenging and disrupting the way things are done, and we’re looking for innovators who are as committed to shaping the future of cybersecurity as we are.
Our Approach to Work
We lead with flexibility and choice in all of our people programs. We have disrupted the traditional view that all employees have the same needs and wants. We offer personalization and offer our employees the opportunity to choose what works best for them as often as possible - from your wellbeing support to your growth and development, and beyond!
At Palo Alto Networks, we believe in the power of collaboration and value in-person interactions. This is why our employees generally work from the office three days per week, leaving two days for choice and flexibility to work where you feel most effective. This setup fosters casual conversations, problem-solving, and trusted relationships. While details may evolve, our goal is to create an environment where innovation thrives, with office-based teams coming together three days a week to collaborate and thrive, together!
Your Career
Think about it, security for an information security company. Working in a global leading cybersecurity company within the Information Security team is a once in a lifetime opportunity. You’ll be joined with the brightest minds in technology, our global teams on the front line of defense against cyberattacks with automation and intelligence, in the cloud and on the premises.

Join a dynamic and fast-paced team that feels excitement at the prospect of a challenge and feels a thrill at resolving security gaps that inhibit our privacy. We hold the ground on the most challenging attack surfaces, block kill chains, and protect our customers globally.
Developing industry-leading security tools is tough, and ensuring they are built securely is just as tough, especially when operating at scale. It takes a lot of effort, coordination, and often custom tooling on top of the already industry-leading tools that are used to secure some of the largest companies in the world.

You will be technically hands-on and help lead the development of solutions for all of the amazing Security Engineers in InfoSec.
