Application Security Engineer [Remote-US]
Quanata, LLC
Prelim builds digital account-opening infrastructure for community banks and credit unions. We've sustained over 100% ARR growth for four consecutive years on seed funding, and our platform sits in the critical path of how banks onboard their customers. When our system is down, a bank can't open accounts for its customers.
We're a small team. You'd be our first dedicated security hire and help define the security program for the next generation of banking.
Secure SDLC: dependency scanning, static analysis, security review of high-risk changes, and coordinating annual penetration tests. Teach engineers to catch issues before you have to.
Partner with DevOps on IAM, secrets management, network architecture, logging, and detection.
Policies, risk assessment, and roadmap. Decide what a company our size and risk profile actually needs, and defend that reasoning to auditors, bankers, and internally.
Own security questionnaires, vendor risk assessments, and customer security reviews. Banks conduct rigorous third-party risk management (often against FFIEC guidance).
Endpoint management, access reviews, phishing resistance, offboarding hygiene. The unglamorous stuff that questionnaires ask about first.
Own SOC 2 Type II end to end: control design, evidence collection, auditor management.
Owning incident responsne, from writing the plan, run the tabletops, and lead if it's ever real. Banks have breach-notification expectations in their contracts. You'll know them cold.
5+ years in security engineering, with breadth across appsec, cloud security, and compliance.
Hands-on: you can read code, write scripts, and configure cloud controls yourself
You've owned or heavily contributed to a SOC 2 audit (or ISO 27001 / equivalent)
Experience answering enterprise or financial-institution security reviews.
Judgment about proportionality: you know which risks matter at our scale and which controls are theater
Fintech or banking-vendor experience; familiarity with FFIEC, GLBA, or bank third-party risk management
Experience as a first or early security hire
Familiarity with core banking integrations or handling of PII/KYC data flows
Prelim is a San Francisco and New York City-based startup that operates with fully remote positions across the US, helping banks onboard their customers.
