Security Engineer (Remote - Denmark)

Role overview Lead application security for an AI-powered consumer product, focusing on practical code review, vulnerability discovery, and remediation across the web application. You’ll work with substantial independence to determine priorities and explain risk to colleagues, while also assessing threats related to AI-generated content, such as prompt injection, jailbreaks, and content-filter bypasses.

Responsibilities - Inspect application code regularly and identify substantive security issues before release. - Prioritize vulnerabilities and partner with engineering teams to drive and validate fixes. - Coordinate independent audits and penetration tests, assess reported issues, and track remediation to completion. - Create automation and scripts that scale security work, incorporating AI tools into daily review and testing workflows. - Manage security priorities with limited support, communicate risk in plain language, and maintain basic risk and governance documentation. - Monitor AI security developments and provider incidents, share awareness updates, and cover alerts with occasional night or weekend on-call.

Requirements - At least two years of hands-on security experience, including regular application security reviews. - Evidence of finding and helping resolve a real software vulnerability. - Experience coordinating an external audit or penetration test and following findings through to fixes. - Independent ownership of a security area, clear communication with non-security colleagues, and familiarity with Git-based engineering workflows. - Python or Bash scripting skills and recent work with a modern web stack and cloud or hosting environment. - Daily use of AI tools for security tasks and a willingness to actively test systems for weaknesses.

Benefits and work setup - Fully remote, with the role listed for Denmark. B2B contracting is preferred, with flexibility on contract type. - 20 working days of paid time off per year and an annual in-person gathering. - Monthly health insurance support, access to one-to-one wellbeing sessions, and a coworking allowance for up to two visits monthly. - Professional development funds, a laptop and equipment budgets, and premium AI tool access.
