Security Engineer

• Support and continuously improve the vulnerability management program - defining processes for identifying, prioritizing, tracking, and driving remediation of security findings across infrastructure and applications. This includes working closely with engineering, operations, and IT teams to ensure findings are understood, assigned, and resolved in a timely manner, and reporting on program health and trends to security leadership.
• Participate in incident response activities, including triage, investigation, containment, and post-incident documentation.
• Support application security initiatives, including automated code scanning, dependency analysis, and working with engineering teams to address security findings early in the development process.
• Help configure, monitor, and improve security tooling across areas such as endpoint protection, email security, identity and access management, and cloud security posture.
• Contribute to security automation and orchestration workflows that reduce manual effort and improve response times.
• Collaborate with engineering, operations, and compliance teams to embed security thinking into development workflows and infrastructure changes.
• Document processes, runbooks, and findings to support team knowledge sharing and continuity.
• Participate in access reviews and support identity and access management processes in line with established policies.
• Stay current with the evolving threat landscape and contribute ideas for improving the team’s detection and response capabilities.

• A solid understanding of cybersecurity fundamentals - including networking, operating systems (Linux, macOS, or Windows), and cloud environments - gained through any combination of formal education, self-study, bootcamps, or professional experience.
• Hands-on experience in at least one security domain, such as vulnerability management, incident response, application security, endpoint security, or identity and access management.
• Experience working with security tooling (e.g., vulnerability scanners, endpoint detection and response platforms, SIEM systems, or similar); familiarity with specific tools is a plus, but willingness to learn our stack matters more than exact tool experience.
• Familiarity with AI tools and how they can be applied in a security context - whether for automating workflows, triaging alerts, or improving detection and response. Experience working with AI models or building AI-assisted workflows is a plus.
• The ability to communicate clearly in writing and in conversation - our team is globally distributed and works primarily in English (professional working proficiency is sufficient; native fluency is not required).
• A collaborative approach to problem-solving - you ask questions, share what you learn, and support your teammates.
• Comfort working with some degree of autonomy on assigned tasks and projects, while knowing when to ask for input.

Bonus points if you have:

• Familiarity with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework or similar security frameworks.
• Experience with cloud environments (AWS or GCP) or container security.
• Exposure to security automation or scripting (e.g., Python, workflow automation tools).
• Experience working in a regulated environment (e.g., SOC 2, PCI).
