Job description

  • The Security Engineer will join an operational security pod acting as the crucial bridge between automated security scanning/remediation systems and product code owners. The mission of this role is to streamline threat modeling, eliminate triage noise, validate exploitability through reproduction, verify automated/agentic patches, and shepherd open security issues through to verified production resolution., * Document trust boundaries, data flows, and architectural entry points to maintain up-to-date threat profiles for high-priority services.
  • Filter and triage findings from automated source and endpoint scanners, classifying severity and evaluating exception requests.
  • Construct minimal test environments and reproduction harnesses to validate exploitability and eliminate false positives.
  • Supervise and QA code patches generated by automated/agentic remediation tools, running unit and integration tests to check for regressions.
  • Route validated patches to product team code owners and coordinate end-to-end deployment verification within strict SLAs.
  • Conduct code reviews and ensure all fixes comply with secure coding standards (e.g., input validation, memory safety)., * Map trust boundaries, data flows, and architectural entry points to maintain standardized threat profiles.
  • Triage findings from automated static and endpoint security scanners, classifying severity and managing exceptions.
  • Build minimal reproduction harnesses and test environments to confirm exploitability and eliminate false positives.
  • Review, test, and QA automated code patches generated by AI/agentic remediation engines, preventing regressions and ensuring compliance with secure coding standards.

Requirements

  • Understanding of architectural trust boundaries, attack surfaces, and data flows.
  • Familiarity with structured threat modeling frameworks (e.g., STRIDE, PASTA).
  1. Triage & Policy Management * Working knowledge of common vulnerability classifications (CWE, CVE, OWASP Top 10). * Ability to interpret vulnerability scoring matrices and map findings to strict remediation SLAs.

  2. Vulnerability Reproduction * Proficiency in reading and writing code in at least two core languages (C++, Go, Java, Python). * Ability to set up local test harnesses, mock dependencies, and build minimal PoCs.

  3. Automated / Agentic Fixer QA * High attention to detail during code reviews (spotting hallucinations, regressions, off-by-one errors). * Understanding of secure coding standards (input validation, boundary checking, safe memory access).

NICE-TO-HAVES

  • Experience conducting threat model reviews for large distributed / microservice systems.
  • Ability to translate abstract system designs into concrete threat scenarios.
  • Experience managing vulnerability queues and reviewing compliance exception requests.
  • Familiarity with automated static/dynamic scanning tools.
  • Practical experience with fuzz testing, unit test frameworks, and sandbox execution.
  • Debugging complex runtime or logic errors across service boundaries.
  • Experience debugging and prompt-tuning automated code generation tools.
  • Familiarity with automated patch validation and differential testing., 1. Threat Modeling
