We’re a small, highly skilled security team ensuring our products, integrations, and policies remain rock-solid, compliant, and ship-ready—without slowing innovation down.
Our mission is to be pragmatic partners to product, SRE, and platform teams — finding the safest path to “yes” while helping engineers build securely and confidently.
We work across the stack: from design and code reviews to cloud and network audits, from defining guardrails to mentoring teams on threat modeling and secure development.
As a Security Engineer, you’ll play a pivotal role in ensuring product resilience, compliance, and readiness for release.
You’ll partner closely with engineering and infrastructure teams to make sure security is integrated early — enabling fast, safe, and scalable development across all environments.
Your goal: keep our systems secure and compliant without slowing down builders, while driving a culture of continuous improvement and automation.
Design & change reviews: Assess new features, third-party integrations, and infrastructure changes; identify threats early and propose safe, pragmatic solutions.
Firewall & network audits: Streamline rule bases, segment wisely, and close side doors — then drive remediation to completion.
Policies & reference architectures: Write product-friendly, cloud-first guardrails that engineers actually adopt.
Mentor & facilitate: Lead threat-modeling workshops, code/infra walk-throughs, and brown-bags to grow security literacy across product, SRE, and platform.
Continuous improvement: Turn findings into dashboards, scripts, and CI/CD checks to automate our way to better.
