Why Rapid7?

Rapid7 is leading the information security industry as a top provider of security products and services that help customers defend against everyday threats. Not only is Rapid7 on the forefront of the security revolution, but we are also known for our great company culture. We recently moved our Boston headquarters into a brand new office in the Hub by North Station (you can even take a virtual tour here!) and it's a "physical manifestation" of our Moose culture. You can learn even more about our sales org, some successful career trajectory stories, and what we typically look for when he hire new Moose, directly from one of our sales leaders, Lauren Lynch.
