A day in the life
As a Security Engineer, you will collaborate with application development teams to ensure we keep our customers safe while developing novel services. In a given day, you might be inspecting an application’s code for security issues, building a new framework to help our software developers build faster and more securely, or fine-tuning the design for a new service. The ideal candidate combines technical acumen with an ability to lead by influence and communicate clearly. Technically, this person will be a security specialist with one or more areas of deep expertise within application security. They will clearly articulate risks to technical and non-technical audiences alike. Successful candidates will effectively harmonize disparate opinions while effectively prioritizing risks to guide their partners towards secure solutions.
