The Security Engineer is a fully qualified, career-level engineer who independently owns defined security workstreams across operations and engineering. You will own the day-to-day health of assigned security tools, investigate security events end to end, and drive vulnerability and risk outcomes within your area.

You receive little instruction on day-to-day work and general direction on new assignments. You break down moderately complex problems, decide the right approach, and make sound decisions with incomplete information, escalating issues that fall outside your domain or carry high business impact.

You will partner with Cloud Operations, Engineering, IT and business teams, building working relationships with senior personnel in your area to strengthen our security posture through reliable execution, continuous improvement and risk-based judgement.

Key responsibilities

Security tooling and engineering

- Own the deployment, configuration, testing, monitoring and maintenance of assigned security tools, which may include SIEM, EDR/CNAPP, DLP, ZTNA, WAF, CASB, Secure Web Gateway, URL filtering, email security and application/vulnerability scanning platforms.

- Lead medium size security initiatives end to end; gather requirements, choose the technical approach, then test, pilot and implement.

- Run proof-of-concepts and product evaluations, assess fit against our security standards and recommend a decision to the team.

- As service owner for your tool(s), identify and implement enhancements, keep runbooks current and resolve operational issues without needing direction.

- Document procedures, workflows, architecture diagrams and playbooks for the tools and processes you own.
