  • What We Are Looking For

    We’re looking for someone who checks off most, but not all, of the boxes listed in “skills and experiences”. It’s more important to us to find candidates who can display indicators of success through skills they have developed and experiences they have been a part of, than to find folks who have ‘been there, done that”. We want to be part of your development journey, and we’ll learn as much from you as you learn from us.

    The Most Important Thing

    CARE

    We care about each other and our mission to make a difference in the world.

    OWN

    We are accountable for our results – while never forgetting to act with integrity, empathy, and respect.

    DEDICATE

    We put our heart and soul into meeting the needs of our customers and helping them serve the people they protect.

    EVOLVE

    We are constantly innovating and exploring new ways to work together to make an impact with our work.

    Here at Magnet Forensics, we are committed to continuous learning and are focused on building a diverse and inclusive workforce. This commitment will be reflected in our hiring processes and embedded in our values and how we treat one another. If you’re interested in this role, but do not meet all of the qualifications listed above, we encourage you to apply anyways.
