Real-time threat intelligence platform indexing the open web, dark web, and technical sources
Recorded Future operates a large-scale internet scanning and threat intelligence platform, serving over 1,600 organizations globally. The tech stack reveals a hybrid architecture—Python and Go for core services, Elasticsearch and Splunk for data ingestion and analysis, AWS/GCP/Azure for cloud infrastructure—paired with heavy adoption of security orchestration tools (Palo Alto XSOAR, Splunk Phantom, Swimlane) indicating integration-first positioning. Actively hiring across sales and engineering with accelerating velocity, while engineering projects focus on scan engine scaling, infrastructure-as-code hardening, and platform reliability—pain points around maintaining high availability on a global scanning platform and managing long, complex enterprise deals.
