Cybersecurity & Compliance Lead

Company Description SenseNet Inc. is an international wildfire risk resilience intelligence company focused on strengthening operational certainty and decision-making for municipalities, emergency responders, and critical infrastructure operators in wildfire-prone areas. The company delivers a multi-layer wildfire intelligence ecosystem covering the full wildfire lifecycle, from proactive risk awareness and early ignition detection to situational awareness and post-incident analysis. Leveraging AI-powered monitoring stations, satellite-based fire risk mapping, and ground sensing networks, SenseNet reduces blind spots and provides earlier visibility during the first critical minutes of ignition. Rather than selling devices, SenseNet operates as an infrastructure-level capability integrated into existing emergency response workflows, enhancing risk identification, response confidence, and community resilience.
