About The Position

Canopy is looking for a Security Engineer to join our growing security team and help execute on our security roadmap. In this role, you will focus on detection engineering, compliance operations, and customer-facing security activities. You will write and tune detection rules in our SIEM, support SOC 2 audits and Trust Services Criteria expansion, respond to customer security questionnaires, and assist with endpoint security operations. This is a great opportunity for someone who thrives on operational security work and wants to grow within a collaborative, fast-moving SaaS environment. This can be a hybrid position in South Jordan, Utah (M, W, F in-office) or fully remote based from Utah, reporting to the Director of DevOps, Security & IT.

Experience working at a SaaS company.
Practical detection engineering skills, including writing and tuning rules in a production SIEM (Datadog preferred, Splunk, Elastic, or similar).
Hands-on experience with a GRC platform (Drata, Vanta, or equivalent), not just theoretical SOC 2 knowledge.
Experience responding to customer security questionnaires and supporting external audits.
Familiarity with compliance frameworks such as SOC 2, CIS Controls, or NIST CSF.
Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple compliance and security workstreams simultaneously.
Clear written and verbal communication skills, particularly for customer-facing compliance work.

Experience with endpoint security tools (JAMF Pro, SentinelOne, CrowdStrike Falcon, or Cloudflare Zero Trust).
Familiarity with macOS MDM/fleet management and endpoint hardening.
Exposure to DLP policy authoring, secure web gateway deployment, or CASB configuration.
Relevant certifications (Security+, GSEC, CCSK, or similar).
Experience with AWS security services or cloud security fundamentals.

Responsibilities

Write, tune, and maintain detection rules in Datadog (SIEM) to identify threats, reduce false positives, and improve alert quality across the environment.
Support SOC 2 audit cycles, including evidence collection, control mapping, and auditor coordination within Drata.
Drive progress on Trust Services Criteria (TSC) expansion and CIS Controls v8 implementation, mapping controls and documenting compliance evidence.
Respond to customer security questionnaires and support customer-facing compliance activities.
Assist with endpoint security operations under the direction of a Senior Security Engineer, including JAMF Pro, SentinelOne or CrowdStrike Falcon, and Cloudflare Zero Trust (DLP, SWG, CASB).
