## About the role

Sardine makes risk and payment decisions for banks and fintechs. Our customers audit us closely, and application security is a large part of what they examine. Money moves through this platform, so real adversaries study it. Your job is to find what they would find, especially authorization flaws and business logic abuse, and then make the whole class of bug go away.
