About the role
Secure SDLC & CI/CD Automation: Own, design, and drive the end-to-end integration of automated technical security requirements and validation tools into high-velocity engineering pipelines. Build custom internal tooling, wrappers, and automated controls to maximize development velocity without friction.
What they're looking for
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Cyber Security, Software Engineering, or a related technical discipline (or equivalent experience)

- Advanced Exploitation & Defense: Proven track record of independently performing deep manual penetration testing, web application exploitation, and incident containment without relying solely on commercial automated scanners
- Cloud & DevOps Stack: Strong practical knowledge of AWS or public cloud topologies, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), network security, and building/maintaining GitLab CI pipelines
- Programming Languages: Foundational proficiency with modern web development frameworks and programming languages including Python, Ruby on Rails, Java, or Node.js
- AI & Security Domains: Solid understanding of the OWASP Top 10 for LLMs framework, applied cryptography, cloud network isolation, and federated authentication architectures (OAuth2, SAML, OIDC, Zero Trust IAM)
More about this role
At Flywire, we are looking for a Security Engineer II to join our global Security Engineering team. In this role, you will serve as a technical authority owning secure software design, cloud-native infrastructure defense, offensive penetration testing, and real-time incident detection across Flywire’s global footprint. You will combine a "breaker" mindset with a builder’s engineering empathy, operating fluidly across the entire product and infrastructure security lifecycle.
This role demands an "automation-first" approach embedded within a high-velocity fintech ecosystem. You will actively partner with software engineering and SRE squads to integrate security controls directly into our public cloud and GitLab CI/CD pipelines using AI workflows. Simultaneously, you will serve as an operational responder for threat detection engineering, red team penetration testing, and live incident containment.
