Security Engineer

Role overview Build security practice for a cloud platform that operates within customers’ production environments. As the first dedicated security engineer, you’ll assess risks across multi-tenant cloud services, Kubernetes, software delivery, and AI-enabled systems, then work with engineering teams to make practical improvements.

Responsibilities - Learn the platform architecture and engineering workflows to identify material vulnerabilities and attack paths. - Configure and tune cloud security tools so findings are useful, prioritized, and actionable. - Threat-model service boundaries, authentication, customer-cluster access, secrets, and other critical flows. - Evaluate risks using evidence, likely impact, and exploitability; communicate priorities to engineers and leadership. - Guide teams in implementing and maintaining controls for access, identity, secrets, infrastructure, and CI/CD. - Support security monitoring, incident-response practices, and compliance evidence; use scripting or prototypes to validate risks and automate work.

Requirements - At least 5–6 years of professional security experience, with strong practical judgment. - Experience operating cloud security tooling in production and helping teams resolve its findings. - Strong knowledge of cloud infrastructure security, including IAM, networking, compute, storage, and service communication. - Practical experience with at least one major cloud provider and a solid understanding of Kubernetes and cloud-native systems. - Ability to advise engineers, prioritize risks, and drive important remediation work to completion. - Software-engineering fundamentals sufficient to script, prototype, or validate security issues.

Nice to have - Production Kubernetes hardening, identity and secrets management, detection engineering, or incident response experience. - Familiarity with SOC 2, ISO 27001, FedRAMP, software supply-chain security, Terraform, or securing AI agents. - Experience with cloud security platforms, Go or Python, or a relevant security certification.

Benefits and work setup Remote-first work across Europe, equity options, learning and equipment budgets, additional time off, and team events. The role works closely with engineering and platform teams and helps shape security priorities across the organization.
