  • Drive vulnerability management, particularly across Kubernetes and container images
  • Triage and validate vulnerabilities, including developing PoCs where appropriate
  • Manage IAM and key management controls
  • Support product security incident response, root-cause analysis and remediation
  • Develop detection engineering capabilities, IDS/IPS rules and technical runbooks
  • Monitor emerging threats and continuously improve security controls
  • Work across engineering, security and compliance teams to drive security improvements

Requirements

  • Knowledge of HTTP, REST, TLS and TCP/IP
  • Strong understanding of OWASP, NIST, ISO 27001 and CIS
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to work closely with developers and technical stakeholders

Desirable

Experience with:

  • Vulnerability research / exploit development
  • Manual penetration testing
  • Cloud, web, embedded or mobile security
  • Splunk / OSQuery
  • AI/ML security
  • Distributed systems
