We are seeking a Sr. Security Engineer to lead the integration of security across the software development lifecycle (SDLC). This role sits at the intersection of engineering, cloud infrastructure, and application security, driving automation, scalability, and secure-by-default development practices. You will design and implement security-first CI/CD pipelines, embed automated security testing, and partner with engineering teams to ensure applications are built, deployed, and operated securely—at scale.

Requirements

7-10 years in software engineering, DevOps, or cloud engineering.
3+ years in a DevSecOps focused role
Deep mastery of cloud security, vulnerability analysis, and incident response.
Demonstrable expertise in the AWS ecosystem
Highly proficient in securing Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and containerized environments.
Hold top-tier industry certifications (such as CISSP, SANS GIAC, or CASP)
Firm grasp of compliance frameworks like PCI and ISO 27001.
Familiar with OWASP
Proficient with modern security tooling
Ability to secure complex API integrations and data protection layers.
Understand the evolving landscape of AI regulations
Technical curiosity to investigate how threat actors use AI to bypass traditional controls.
Natural collaborator who can translate complex InfoSec projects into simple, maintainable tasks for Engineering teams.
Can propose strategic methodologies to tackle legacy security debt and convince stakeholders of the business value of security-first design
Deep expertise in CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins)

Responsibilities

Embed security controls and scanners (SAST, SCA, DAST, IaC, Container Security) into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps)
Design and maintain automated security workflows across build, test, and deploy stages
Implement security gates, policy enforcement, and compliance checks within pipelines
Secure cloud-native architectures across AWS (IAM, VPC, ECS/EKS, Lambda, S3, API Gateway)
Integrate and operationalize CNAPP/CSPM tools (e.g., Wiz, Prisma Cloud)
Enforce least privilege access, secrets management, and runtime protections
Define and maintain security policies for our AWS environment, specifically focusing on containerized workloads (EKS/ECS) and serverless architectures (Lambda).
Move beyond manual checks by building real-time monitoring and automated remediation for AWS resources, ensuring we stay "audit-ready" for frameworks like PCI and ISO 27001.
Perform deep-dive threat modeling exercises on applications and designs, turning theoretical risks into actionable engineering plans.
Develop security standards for Generative AI.
Leverage AI-powered tools to explore our attack surface while defending against AI-driven threats.
Secure our Infrastructure as Code (IaC) templates (Terraform/CloudFormation) and manage cloud primitives like IAM, KMS, and WAF to ensure a "least privilege" environment.
