About the role

YipitData is looking for a Product Security Engineer to help build security into the products and services we deliver to customers. In this role, you will partner closely with Engineering and Product teams throughout the development lifecycle. You will assess new products and technologies, lead threat modeling and security design reviews, identify vulnerabilities, and help teams implement practical fixes before issues reach production.

What they're looking for

  • You have worked in product security, application security, software engineering, penetration testing, or another role that taught you how applications are built and broken
  • You can look at a complex system, follow the data, identify trust boundaries, and quickly understand where the real risks may be hiding
  • You know how to threat model, review architecture, and assess applications without relying entirely on a checklist
  • You can validate a vulnerability, determine whether it is actually exploitable, and explain why it matters to both engineers and business leaders
  • You are comfortable working across APIs, cloud services, containers, serverless technologies, and CI/CD pipelines
  • You have worked with tools such as SAST, DAST, dependency scanning, secret scanning, or infrastructure-as-code scanning, and know that getting useful results takes more than simply turning them on
