Cisco Security Business Group (SBG) is at the forefront of developing solutions for addressing the security challenges of our customers. With annual revenue exceeding $2B, it is one of the fastest-growing businesses at Cisco. As Cisco is redefining its business model aggressively to a software and recurring revenue model, the security business is leading this journey with 40% YoY growth in software recurring revenue.

The Cloud Security group within SBG focuses on developing cloud-delivered security solutions (SaaS based) in a platform-centric approach. This group values and nurtures innovation in an incredibly powerful and high-growth domain. The group was formed by combining some of the existing cloud assets Cisco had with two hugely successful acquisitions - OpenDNS and CloudLock. Our vision is to build the most complex security solutions in a cloud-delivered way with utmost simplicity - reinvent the industry's thinking around how deep and how broad a security solution can be while keeping it easy to deploy and simple to manage. We are at an exciting stage of this journey with 100% YoY growth, and looking for a hard-working, innovative, and productive engineering leader for our Product and Infra Engineering group to help us scale our business.

Why is cloud security-relevant? Because today's world has changed. The way we work has fundamentally changed. There are more roaming users than ever with the rapid growth of BYOD. Business applications have migrated to the cloud. Enterprise's critical infrastructure has been moving to the public/private cloud. At the same time, the threat landscape has drastically changed with the increased sophistication of attacks. The notion of traditional perimeter-based security is being disrupted. Since users, apps, and infrastructure have all moved to the cloud, security must too. Welcome to the team of geeks passionate about solving this very problem and making the world a better place...a secure place.

We have a highly scalable cloud infrastructure, spread across 40 data centers where we run our cloud security applications that operate at a substantial scale - 200B requests per day from 65M daily active users.
