 * Strong grounding in security fundamentals: IAM, application security, data protection, credential management, endpoint and cloud security
 * Deep experience designing and delivering RESTful APIs and service-based architectures
 * Practical expertise with containers, orchestration, and infrastructure abstractions (Docker, Kubernetes, API gateways, service meshes)
 * Strong programming skills in Python, Java, C++, or similar (polyglot experience is a plus)
 * Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions) and modern DevSecOps practices
 * Cloud-native delivery experience on AWS, Azure, and/or Google Cloud Platform
 * Awareness of threat modeling, security architecture reviews, and risk analysis
 * Familiarity with security data analysis, ML, or AI-enhanced security workflows is a bonus

Successful candidate will

 * You multiply the effectiveness of the team through clear technical direction and strong execution
 * You challenge assumptions and improve how the Security Platform is designed and operated
 * You take ownership-from idea to production to steady-state operations
 * You stay curious, continuously learning, researching new threats, and experimenting with better approaches
 * You thrive in fast-moving environments where priorities evolve and impact is tangible

## Description

The Digital Information Security Engineering team is seeking a deeply technical Security Engineer to join our team to help build and evolve the Security Operating System- a foundational platform that powers security services, automation, and data-driven decision-making across the enterprise., * Design and implement core security platform services that expose reliable, well-instrumented APIs consumed by internal teams and security products

 * Translate security and product requirements into architecture and code-from proof of concept to hardened, production-ready services
 * Design automation-first workflows, integrating security services and telemetry from diverse tools and data sources
 * Build integrations, plugins, and hooks across the security ecosystem (IAM, app sec, endpoints, cloud, data protection)
 * Evaluate and adopt emerging technologies, including AI-driven and open-source security tooling, where they add measurable value
 * Define and evolve service APIs, ensuring they are scalable, secure, and aligned with platform capabilities
 * Ensure platform reliability by designing for SLA/SLO compliance, observability, and fault tolerance
 * Own technical delivery end to end: architecture, implementation, testing, deployment, and operational readiness
 * Proactively identify technical risks and bottlenecks, driving resolution before they impact delivery or reliability

Technical Leadership Characteristics

 * Lead through architecture, code quality, and technical decision-making, not hierarchy
 * Influence cross-functional teams by clearly articulating tradeoffs, constraints, and long-term impact
 * Set a high bar for engineering rigor, security design, and operational excellence
 * Anticipate where the security landscape is headed and build platform capabilities ahead of demand, Equinix is committed to ensuring that our employment process is open to all individuals, including those with a disability.
