As a Senior Security Engineer, you'll harden the security posture of our AWS environment, our public-facing perimeter, and our software development pipeline. Cloud Security is the primary focus and Application Security is a secondary focus.
You'll partner with DevOps, Engineering, and our Application Security Engineer to build preventative controls across infrastructure, identity, CI/CD, and applications. The work is hands-on: configuring tooling, writing and tuning detection and blocking rules, reviewing architecture, hardening pipelines, and supporting application security work where your range is needed.

- Own cloud security posture across our AWS environment using a CSPM or CNAPP platform alongside AWS-native security services.
- Reduce risk across IAM, network segmentation, ECS and container security, secrets management, and data exposure.
- Establish secure defaults in our Infrastructure as Code through reusable modules, guardrails, and policy as code.
- Harden CI/CD pipelines and the secrets that flow through them in partnership with DevOps.
