Job Summary

As a hands-on Security Engineer, you will play a crucial role within the infrastructure engineering team. Your responsibilities include defining and building core security engineering efforts to create a foundational security infrastructure used across the entire company. Success in this role requires leveraging a deep understanding of security infrastructure, strong system software development skills, and empathy for other developers. Your goal is to ensure security serves as a shared guardrail, never a bottleneck, regardless of the project.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, implement, and work with other engineering teams to operate security tools and programs across the organization, including access control & workflows, vulnerability management, and detection/response systems.

  • Collaborate with other engineers and with the business to identify the highest priority needs of the organization, and maintain a roadmap to address those needs.

  • Actively participate in design reviews, threat modeling, and incident analysis.

  • Help teams make high-quality security decisions, especially in ambiguous situations.

  • Set the bar for security, ownership, and quality across engineering.

Qualifications

Required Qualifications

  • 7+ years in security or infra-focused engineering roles with meaningful security ownership.

  • The ability to independently own projects from inception to delivery.

  • A systematic problem-solving approach, coupled with strong communication skills and a sense of ownership and drive.

  • Empathy for the problems faced by developers, and a passion for building tools and systems that address those problems.

  • Built vulnerability management systems that actually drive risk down.

  • Led security incident response efforts and postmortem improvements.

  • Strong interest in how things work. Curiosity and persistence is key to building the understanding needed to apply.

  • A flexible, collaborative working style. We’re a small team working in a rapidly evolving space, and we’re looking for people who will help build a positive, supportive environment.

  • 3+ years of experience building infrastructure software in Go or Python.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience building foundational security programs at growth-stage companies.

  • Familiarity with compliance frameworks, but a healthy skepticism of security theater.

  • An outstanding ability to communicate risk with both technical and non-technical audiences.

  • Experience working with C++ or Rust.

  • Proven experience championing DevSecOps within a product organization. You have lived on the security-engineering side of the house, successfully acting as a bridge between development, operations, and security to embed a 'secure-by-design' culture without sacrificing agility.

Compensation Disclosure

The compensation offered for this position will depend on qualifications, experience, and work location. For candidates who receive an offer at the posted level, the starting base salary (for non-sales roles) or base salary + commission target (for sales/com-missioned roles) is expected to be the annual range listed below. The offered compensation may also include restricted stock units and a bonus. A description of our employee benefits may be found here.

$147,000.00 - $237,500.00/yr
