About the role

At Agora, our mission is to transform how money moves. We believe stablecoins will underpin a new financial fabric, one that is faster, more global, and more efficient than today's siloed systems. That is why we are building AUSD and the Agora stack, a full service platform that makes issuing, managing, and integrating stablecoins seamless, whether you're a developer, fintech, or institution. With AUSD, stablecoins become programmable, composable, and ubiquitous by default.

What they're looking for

  • Partner with Engineering and Product throughout the development lifecycle, from early design and threat modeling through launch and ongoing operation
  • Perform security reviews of system designs, application code, APIs, infrastructure as code, cloud environments, Kubernetes workloads, deployment pipelines, and production configurations
  • Identify vulnerabilities and design weaknesses, communicate their impact clearly, and work with engineers on pragmatic remediation
  • Develop reusable security guidance, secure patterns, review checklists, and engineering standards that make the secure approach easier to adopt
  • Integrate security controls into developer workflows and CI/CD pipelines, tune rules, reduce noise, improve coverage, and ensure findings lead to action
  • Translate threat models and known attack paths into concrete logging, monitoring, and detection requirements
