Principal Security Engineer – DevSecOps and Security Architect

As a Principal Security Engineer, you will partner closely with engineering teams to design and implement secure development practices, integrate security into our CI/CD pipeline, and lead security and design reviews.

You’ll bring deep expertise in DevSecOps, application security, hands‑on experience securing web applications and APIs, and a strong understanding of modern development workflows. This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of our security program while working in a high‑ownership, high‑impact environment.

What you will do

• Architect and integrate security tooling directly into CI/CD pipelines to automate the detection and prevention of vulnerabilities, ensuring "shift-left" security at scale.
• Lead threat modeling and secure design reviews for web applications, APIs, and cloud services.
• Oversee the end-to-end product vulnerability lifecycle, from issue triage, prioritization, remediation support, with clear risk communication.
• Drive secure coding standards, develop playbooks, and provide hand‑on training and mentorship to instill a security‑first mindset across the organization.
• Design and scale secure development practices by collaborating cross-functionally with engineering teams throughout the entire software lifecycle.
• Engage with customers during security reviews.

What you bring to the table

• 10+ years in security, with a focus on DevSecOps and security design reviews
• Hands‑on experience with secure coding, OWASP Top 10, threat modeling, and SDLC integration
• Experience with GitHub/GitLab, CI/CD, IaC, and containerized environments
• Experience deploying and working with SAST tooling (e.g. Semgrep, Snyk)
• Experience developing in Python and Go.
• Track record of balancing pragmatism and security rigor in a fast‑paced setting.

Nice to Have Skills

• Understanding of AI security fundamentals and how application security and AI security intersect
• Experience securing cloud infrastructure
• Participation in bug bounty programs and managing security disclosure
• Familiarity with the BSIMM framework
• Experience in cloud security including identity and access management and cloud‑native services.
