## About the role

LaunchDarkly's Product Security team is hiring a Product Security Engineer II to strengthen how we secure the platform engineers build with every day. You'll bring depth in security fundamentals and program design as a member of a small, high-leverage team with strong engineering instincts.

## What they're looking for

- 2 to 4 years of full-time experience in a security-focused role. AppSec, ProdSec, or cloud security preferred
- Comfortable reading and critiquing pull requests in a modern stack. You don't need to ship production services, but you should follow the code, ask sharp questions, and write small tools when it helps
- Experience participating in or leading threat modeling exercises. Familiar with at least one structured approach (STRIDE, attack trees, or equivalent)
- Working knowledge of cloud security posture. Exposure to a CNAPP is a strong plus
- Strong fundamentals: OWASP Top 10, authentication and authorization patterns, secrets management, common cloud misconfigurations
- Hands-on experience applying AI tooling to security or engineering work. You can point to specific examples where it changed how you operated
