À propos
In this role, you'll operate as a hands-on security engineer with broad influence across the enterprise, embedding security into solution design, deployment, and modernization efforts. This is not a siloed Information Security role-you'll partner directly with engineering, platform, and business teams to shape secure outcomes across a diverse technology landscape.
Day to day, you'll provide practical security guidance, assess risk in real-world implementations, and help ensure that new tools, platforms, and integrations are designed and deployed securely. You'll contribute across multiple areas including security tooling, cloud security, and emerging domains such as AI, helping the organization adopt new technologies safely and confidently.
This role is intentionally broad and dynamic. Success requires the ability to context switch, balance advisory and engineering responsibilities, and deliver practical, scalable solutions rather than theoretical guidance.
To be successful, you'll bring strong security engineering fundamentals and the ability to operate across a wide range of technologies. We're looking for candidates who:
Have experience securing solutions in at least one major cloud platform
Understand data and database security concepts and their real-world implications
Can assess and secure architectures without being tied to a single technology stack
Are comfortable navigating ambiguity and partnering with diverse teams
Experience with AI security, particularly evaluating risks across different vendors and platforms, is a strong plus.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex problems, influencing technical direction, and building security into systems as they are designed, not after the fact.
