As an Engineer in the Product Security team, you will work closely with the cybersecurity and product engineering teams to ensure that our applications are developed securely and vulnerabilities are managed.

This role is perfect for someone who demonstrates a deep passion for cybersecurity, whether through personal projects, community involvement, or staying up-to-date with the latest trends and threats. About the job

  • Custom Tools & Scripts: Contribute to the development and maintenance of custom internal tools and scripts to enhance our security posture.
  • Developer Support: Be a go-to resource for our developer community, offering advice and support on security best practices.

    Passion for Security: You should have a genuine passion for cybersecurity and a strong desire to stay current with the latest trends and threats.
  • Programming Skills: Demonstrable programming knowledge is essential. Experience with Python, Javascript and/or PHP is a bonus.
  • Application Security Knowledge: You have a deep understanding of common web vulnerabilities, such as the OWASP Top 10, and know how to mitigate them.
  • Tools: You have experience operating common application security tools such as Static Application Security Testing (SAST) tools.
  • Problem Solver: You love tackling complex problems and finding innovative solutions.
  • Proactive Learner: You're always looking for ways to improve your skills and knowledge.
