About the Opportunity

Our Security Team is a dynamic blend of proactive defenders and inquisitive problem-solvers. We're dedicated to fortifying our cloud infrastructure (GCP and AWS) through rigorous security reviews, threat modeling, and automated controls. We actively manage our cloud security posture, ensuring swift response and remediation to identified risks. We leverage cutting-edge tools like DataDog for cloud security monitoring and Terraform for secure Infrastructure as Code. Collaboration is key, as we embed security best practices throughout the infrastructure lifecycle. We are constantly researching emerging cloud threats, crafting effective mitigation strategies, and empowering our engineering teams with comprehensive training. We maintain up-to-date cloud security standards, baseline, implement Just-in-Time (JIT) access controls, and will establish and lead our cloud incident management process.
