If you're ready to make a tangible impact, this is your chance to lead the charge in securing our innovative platform.

The Mission: Your Impact
As a Senior Security Engineer, you'll be at the forefront of protecting our platform and data, ensuring the integrity and confidentiality of sensitive information. You will be instrumental in evaluating and implementing security solutions, both building and buying, to meet our evolving needs. Dive deep into our code, infrastructure, and AI models to proactively identify and mitigate vulnerabilities.

Risk Management: Proactively identify, assess, and mitigate security risks across the organization.
Code and Network Security: Fortify our platform through secure coding practices and robust network security measures, preventing unauthorized access and data breaches.
Incident Response: Lead the charge in developing and executing incident response plans, conducting forensic analysis, and implementing preventative measures to minimize impact.

Continuous Monitoring: Establish real-time monitoring systems to detect and respond to emerging threats, conducting regular security assessments to stay ahead of the curve.

Documentation and Reporting: Maintain detailed documentation of security protocols, incidents, and improvements, providing regular reports to stakeholders to keep them informed.

What You'll Bring: Your Arsenal
We're looking for a seasoned security professional with a passion for problem-solving and a deep understanding of modern security threats and mitigation techniques.

8+ years of hands-on implementation experience in a security-focused role, emphasizing secure technical architecture, implementation, and team oversight (e.g., conducting solution security reviews).
Proven expertise in SAST/DAST, application security, and CI/CD pipeline integration.
Deep understanding of AI-specific threats, including prompt injection, model poisoning, membership inference, adversarial perturbation, and output manipulation.
In-depth knowledge of information security principles, policy enforcement, operating systems, web application security, OWASP Top 10, and common hacker techniques.
Experience designing and implementing next-generation security technologies like SASE, CASB, or RASP.
Hands-on experience with application patch management, software supply chain security, or artifact repositories like JFrog and Snyk.
Strong fluency in at least one programming or scripting language: Python, Ruby, NodeJs.
Cybersecurity certification (e.g., CISSP, CISM, CISA, CRISC, GIAC or other relevant certification).
Up-to-date knowledge and regular monitoring of evolving technologies and vulnerabilities to identify solutions and measures necessary to secure cloud computing applications and ecosystems.
Hands-on experience with application and infrastructure-level design security, including modern mitigation techniques and good practices (e.g., DNS-SEC, OWASP Top 10 mitigations, cryptographic fundamentals).
Strong hands-on skills with creating automations using Python.

These skills aren't required, but they'll definitely give you an advantage:
Fluency with at least one infrastructure-as-code or configuration management language.
Experience in the design and implementation of security controls.
Hands-on experience with GCP security architectures.
