About Panther
Panther makes security teams smarter and faster than attackers.
We're building the AI SOC platform that modern security teams need. Our Detection-as-Code approach, cloud-native architecture, and powerful security data lake help teams detect and respond to threats at scale. Security teams at leading companies use Panther to protect their organizations without the overhead and costs of legacy SIEM solutions.

Our culture is built on flexibility, transparency, and collaboration. We operate by three core values: Create Customer Love, Be an Owner, and Take Care of the Team. We believe diverse perspectives make us better, and that building great security technology should also mean building a rewarding place to work.
