We're Looking For
An SRE Security Engineer who takes ownership of security findings from detection through resolution — remediating misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and access issues across AWS, Azure, GCP, GitHub, Okta, and Active Directory. You will join a new SRE Security Engineering team formed to close the gap between what Security reports and what actually gets fixed: you will work hands-on inside cloud and identity platforms to drive issues to closure, rather than simply tracking tickets.

You Are
Analytical, decisive, accountable, collaborative, security-minded, and action-oriented.

You Bring

You Own

You Drive
Execution: Close the loop between security detection and resolution, reducing the backlog of unresolved findings and shortening time-to-remediate for critical issues.

Results: Measurably shrink the population of standing security findings across AWS, Azure, GCP, GitHub, Okta, and Active Directory, and reduce recurrence through root-cause fixes rather than one-off patches.

Team: Contribute to remediation playbooks and runbooks as the team matures, and share platform-specific expertise with Security and SRE.
How You'll Use AI in This Role
AI assistants such as Claude, Gemini, and OpenAI/ChatGPT are a standard part of how this team works, not an optional add-on. Expect to use them daily to triage and summarize scan output from Ox and Upwind, draft and review remediation scripts and infrastructure-as-code changes, and speed up root-cause investigation across unfamiliar systems.

Who You Will Work With
Reporting to the SRE Director, this role sits within Site Reliability Engineering and partners daily with the Security team (who surface findings via Ox, Upwind, Socket, and vulnerability reports), fellow SRE platform teams (who review and approve production-impacting changes), Engineering Leadership and their developers (on remediation affecting their applications and services), and the rest of the SRE Security Engineering team.

Where You Work
Your work is performed as a Remote employee, with occasional team alignment meetings as needed.
