Job description

The Product Security team builds and operates engineering-driven security capabilities embedded directly into the software and platform lifecycle. The Product Security Engineer will report to the Senior Director, Product Security. In this role you will design, build, and operate security as code across application, data, cloud, and infrastructure environments, ensuring secure-by-default outcomes through automation and developer-native platforms. You will play a key role in securing AI-enabled systems and leveraging AI to scale security engineering, detection, and response capabilities., * Design and operate security controls embedded in CI/CD pipelines using policy-as-code and automation-first approaches

  • Build and maintain developer-native security platforms covering SAST, SCA, API validation, and IaC security
  • Implement data protection controls to detect and prevent exposure of sensitive data including PHI, PII, and secrets
  • Develop secure application and API patterns including authentication, authorization, and encryption standards
  • Engineer reusable libraries for encryption, tokenization, and data redaction
  • Define and enforce cloud and infrastructure security using Infrastructure-as-Code and GitOps workflows
  • Build identity, access, encryption, and network guardrails using automated controls
  • Implement software supply chain security including SBOM generation, artifact signing, and provenance validation
  • Develop detection-as-code and automated response capabilities to reduce reliance on manual security operations
  • Design and enforce controls to secure AI systems and prevent misuse, data leakage, and model risk
  • Leverage AI to improve detection, analysis, and automation across security operations
  • Translate regulatory requirements into enforceable technical controls and automated evidence generation
  • Eliminate manual security processes in favor of scalable engineering-driven solutions
