About The Product

Ivanti Neurons is our cutting-edge, cloud-based platform that powers intelligent IT workflows

for enterprises around the world. At the heart of this ecosystem is the Neurons Agent—a

lightweight, cross-platform application deployed to customer endpoints on Windows, Mac, and

Linux platforms.

The Neurons Agent communicates seamlessly with our cloud platform, receiving work

instructions and deploying functional Engines provided by feature teams. The agent framework

also provides the infrastructure foundation for these feature engines, enabling advanced

automation and orchestration on endpoints. Our mission is to deliver agents that are secure,

robust, and highly performant, ensuring minimal impact on endpoint resources while maintaining

maximum reliability. By orchestrating endpoint activity and powering our cloud features, our

agents are critical to the delivery of Ivanti Neurons’ value to our customers.

About The Team

You’ll be joining a highly skilled, globally distributed DevOps team driven by a passion for

quality, security, and customer impact. As the stewards of the Neurons Agent, our team takes

end-to-end ownership—designing, developing, and maintaining agent code that must work

seamlessly across Windows, Mac, and Linux platforms running on both Intel and ARM

architectures.

As the providers of critical infrastructure for functional engines, our team also frequently

cooperates with other teams to analyze their needs and identify required changes and

improvements. Collaboration is critical in our remote-first environment, and personal

responsibility is high: every team member is entrusted with solving complex problems and

delivering features that matter to our customers. We prioritize stable releases, continuous

monitoring, and rapid iteration, ensuring our agents meet the highest standards of performance

and reliability while minimizing their footprint on user devices.

Join us and help shape the core experience of Ivanti Neurons for millions of endpoints

worldwide.
