Requirements

  • Have 5+ years of relevant experience in security engineering or software engineering.
  • Use a risk-based approach and sound judgment to prioritize security efforts.
  • Have experience partnering with cross-functional teams to deliver security improvements and help engineers choose practical fixes.
  • Write production-quality code for security tools and automation, review pull requests, and navigate large, unfamiliar codebases.
  • Understand secure software design, application and API security, authentication and authorization, threat modeling, and code review.
  • Have experience assessing cloud and infrastructure security and contributing beyond a primary application-security specialty.
  • Be able to quickly understand complex engineering systems and architecture.
  • Apply practical software engineering habits, including testing, observability, version control, peer code review, continuous integration, and blameless postmortems.
  • Write design documents, proposals, runbooks, and post-incident reviews that support engineering decisions, and explain security risks and tradeoffs clearly.
  • Share the security team's on-call and incident-response responsibilities, including occasional off-hours response.
  • Experience with Go, Python, Clojure, or JavaScript is desirable; ability to work across languages matters more than a specific language.
  • Experience securing GenAI applications, designing sandboxes, or evaluating AI-assisted security tools and their output is desirable.

Responsibilities

  • Establish secure software development standards and integrate security into engineering design and development.
  • Create documented review workflows, reusable tools, and secure design patterns that help engineering teams build and deploy securely.
  • Perform design and code reviews, threat modeling, and security assessments for GenAI, Creative GenAI, and emerging businesses, including sandbox design and isolation.
  • Triage security issues, prioritize vulnerabilities by risk, and work with engineering teams on timely remediation and verification.
  • Assess vendors and AI tools to determine whether their security controls and product features support secure employee use.
  • Build maintainable security tools and automation, including an AI-assisted code-security triage pilot.
  • Share the security team's on-call and incident-response rotation, including occasional off-hours response.
  • Conduct blameless post-incident reviews, document findings, and follow through on remediation.
  • Partner with Detection & Response to turn application-security findings and threat models into detection improvements and response guidance.
  • Contribute across application, cloud, and infrastructure security as priorities change, including support for Accelerate and MX.
