# Our Story\n\nIn short, Security Roots helps make the Internet safer. We work with IT security professionals and ethical hackers to help them find security holes and vulnerabilities in systems before the bad guys do.\n\n\n\nThere is a lot of creativity and innovation involved in findings those holes. Unfortunately, itโs not all fun and games, in order for their โfindingsโ to be useful, they need to document their results, track progress, notify stakeholders, review mitigations implemented, verify, re-test, etc. There is a lot of overhead involved in the process.\n\n\n\nSurprising no one, IT Security experts like the fun and games but donโt like the overhead/ back-office stuff. Thatโs where we come in, we exist to make the life of IT Security professionals easier, better, more enjoyable by making all of these overhead tasks easier and more painless.\n\n\n\nWe've been in business for 5 years, completely self-funded and profitable. Today, we serve over 440 Infosecurity teams across 37 different countries.\n\n\n\n\n\n# Whatโs the opportunity?\n\nWeโre looking to hire our 6th full-time employee, a well-rounded Rails developer.\n\nIn this role, you will learn a ton and be part of a small, global, and user-centered company.
