The Senior Security Engineer will be responsible for designing, implementing, and managing enterprise security solutions across a large-scale AWS environment.

The role requires a proactive security expert with deep technical expertise in AWS security services, SIEM, database security, SDLC security best practices, and compliance frameworks.

Key Responsibilities

  • Architect, configure, and optimize security controls across AWS environments, including EC2, ECS, VPC, IAM, WAF, and other cloud-native security tools.
  • Lead vulnerability scanning, file integrity monitoring, database security, and intrusion detection efforts to proactively identify and mitigate risks.
  • Develop and implement threat models to assess security weaknesses and drive continuous improvement.
  • Conduct penetration testing and security assessments to identify and remediate vulnerabilities.
  • Strengthen security within the SDLC, working closely with engineering teams to integrate security best practices into cloud and application development.
  • Deploy, fine-tune, and manage SIEM solutions for advanced threat detection and response.
  • Lead incident response efforts, including forensic investigations, root cause analysis, and remediation strategies.
  • Ensure compliance with industry security frameworks (e.g., NIST, CIS Benchmarks, ISO 27001) and align security initiatives with regulatory requirements.
  • Automate security operations, monitoring, and threat detection using Python and cloud-native tools.

Qualifications & Experience

  • 8+ years of experience in enterprise security, with a focus on cloud security and AWS environments.
  • Deep expertise in AWS security services (EC2, ECS, IAM, WAF, VPC) and cloud-native security solutions.
  • Strong background in vulnerability management, intrusion detection, SIEM, and database security.
  • Hands-on experience with penetration testing, threat modeling, and SDLC security best practices.
  • Proficiency in Python for automation and security tooling.
  • Expertise in incident response, forensics, and security event analysis.
  • Knowledge of security compliance frameworks (e.g., NIST, ISO 27001, CIS Benchmarks).
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to work in a fast-paced, highly innovative environment.

This is an opportunity to make a real impact in securing next-generation home security technology. Interested applicants must include a resume with full name (first & last) and contact information in order to be considered. This is a full-time position; candidates seeking C2C/C2H employment will not be accommodated.
