Companies should be able to ask any question of any real-world data set, even massive ones, and get an answer effectively instantly. That's the future we're building.

We're starting with security teams, who face this problem most acutely: searching massive log volumes to detect threats, investigate incidents, and hunt for compromised systems. We're expanding to infrastructure teams, DevOps, and SREs with similar challenges across observability data and system logs. Ultimately, any team dealing with large-scale data should have instant answers.

Scanner is a Security Data Lake that lets teams search and detect across petabytes of data in seconds, retain everything forever, and maintain full custody of their data.

Ramp, Notion, Confluent, and BeyondTrust use Scanner to analyze security logs faster, and on more data, than ever before. Our customers span fintech, healthtech, AI, and banking. At conferences like AWS re:Invent, we run 30+ demos over four days. The demand is real and scaling up.

We're also the Security Data Lake built for AI. More than a third of our customers have built agents on Scanner since we launched MCP support weeks ago, for automated investigation, detection engineering, and alert triage. Traditional systems are too slow and expensive for AI to iterate on. Scanner isn't.

We're 25 full-time, funded by Sequoia, CRV, SVCI, and Mantis VC, and growing fast. You'll join a high-trust team where your work shapes our story, pipeline, and revenue trajectory.

 

We're looking for a Director of Talent & People Operations to own how Scanner attracts, hires, develops, and retains exceptional people as we enter our next stage of growth. You'll take over the Talent and People foundation currently managed by our Head of Operations including recruiting, HRIS, payroll, benefits, and employee operations and build the strategy and systems we need as the company scales.

 

You'll own recruiting across Engineering, Product, Sales, and Marketing, alongside workforce planning, People Operations, performance, manager enablement, employee experience, and culture. This is a hands-on builder role: you'll develop the strategy while still running critical searches, closing candidates, coaching managers, solving People issues, and building the processes that help Scanner grow without lowering our talent bar or adding unnecessary bureaucracy.

What We Offer

~1 min read
✓Experience joining a company around 20–50 employees and helping scale it through 100+.
✓Experience building an internal recruiting function that previously relied heavily on agencies.
✓Experience recruiting deeply technical infrastructure, distributed systems, database, or security engineers.
✓Experience building compensation, leveling, or manager-development frameworks.
  • You'll help build the company itself. Few roles have more influence over who joins Scanner, how we operate, and what kind of company we become.
  • The timing is unusually impactful. We're small enough for you to shape the foundation and growing quickly enough that what you build will immediately matter.
  • This is a builder role, not a caretaker role. You'll turn a working foundation into the Talent and People strategy, systems, and organization required for our next stages of growth.
  • Culture is part of the job. You'll have meaningful ownership over how Scanner's culture and employee experience evolve as the organization gets larger.
  • Stay hands-on. Work directly with founders and functional leaders while continuing to recruit, build programs, solve problems, and do the work.
