## About the role

In this role, you'll be a hands-on security engineer defending and hardening a platform that regulated companies build their businesses on. This is an engineering role first; you'll design security-by-default infrastructure, run our vulnerability management program, drive our pentesting program (including working with tools like XBOW) from finding to fix, and lead incident response when things go wrong.

## What they're looking for

- General Experience
- 5+ years of experience in security engineering, with a track record of owning security-critical systems in production
- You have experience as a hands-on security engineer, not just a security reviewer or policy writer — you can read and write code, operate infrastructure, and get into the weeds of a system under attack
- You communicate extremely well — clear, effective, and proactive, both in writing and live during an incident
- Developer tools or platform engineering experience is a plus
- Technical Expertise
