About Us
Our mission is simple: we want to set people free to do meaningful work. People love our software--and it turns out that people love working here too. We've been recognized as a "Best Company to Work For", and we're proud of our team for receiving awards for workplace effectiveness and flexibility.
What You'll Do
As our Security Engineer, you'll be responsible for managing our security posture as well as keeping our application safe from external threats. Our ideal Security Engineer will be able to manage IT-related security issues, such as firewall management, HIDS/HIPS configuration, log monitoring, and audit compliance (SOC II). You will ensure that our software application is both manually and automatically pentested for security vulnerabilities (both Red Team and Blue Team exercises), and be a decision maker in all things security management - able to "pull the plug" on a feature, application, or other business function if it represents a significant risk to the company.
You will:
- Conduct penetration tests against web applications infrastructure
- Validate security on new hardware and software infrastructure
- Assist front-line company representatives with security questions
- Manage firewall rules and internal pentesting
- Manage SOC II controls and external pentesting
- Manage priorities through backlog management system (Jira)
- Come to work, do great things, then go home!
