Sr. Security Engineer - Product & Cloud Security

JR104250

US -Remote

We are looking for a Senior Security Engineer to help solve problems across our product and cloud portfolio. We partner closely with Research & Development teams to ensure that security is appropriately addressed across the HashiCorp suite of cloud, self-managed, and community products.

Security at HashiCorp is largely a remote team. While prior experience working remotely isn't required, we are looking for team members who perform well given a high level of independence and autonomy.

About this team

The Security team is composed of security engineers working to ensure HashiCorp delivers secure software to its customers. We work closely with product engineering teams at HashiCorp, system and business owners of systems, and other security teams to enable them to do their job while keeping the company secure. We are flexible, adapt to situations, and develop innovative solutions to hard problems. 

In this role, your responsibilities will include:

• Contribute to secure architecture and design of HashiCorp products, across our cloud, self-managed, and community product portfolio.
• Work across various R&D teams to prioritize security features and bugs, and ensure implementation and mitigations.
• Monitor threats and vulnerabilities impacting HashiCorp products and services; triage reported vulnerabilities, identify mitigations and assess/communicate associated risk.
• Act as SME in multiple information security areas (e.g. security architecture, application security, threat modeling, data protection,  etc.)
• Develop internal tooling to address security problem areas.
• Contribute to the development of security solutions across the product life-cycle, such as standalone security tools, CI/CD pipeline integrations, product security features/fixes, etc.

We are looking for talented self-starters with 5+ years of security experience. We will consider experienced engineers with less security-specific experience but the desire to learn!

What you’ll need (basic qualifications)

Experience in some of these topic areas:

• 3+ years of experience with a modern programming language like GO or Python
• Modern engineering practices, processes, and tools, particularly related to the Go programming language and ecosystem.
• Product and service architectures in modern, multi-tenant cloud environments (IaaS, SaaS, PaaS).
• Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and/or Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
• Security design / architecture and threat modeling.
• Application and infrastructure security testing methodologies and tools.
• Vulnerabilities (old and new), and options for defense / mitigation.
• Product vulnerability management lifecycle.
• Working with and/or supporting product engineering teams
• Cryptography and cryptographic primitives

We’re looking for a candidate with strong written and verbal communication skills, knowledge of application security topics, a pragmatic approach to security, and the ability to empathize with engineers and product managers across the company.

Please note, as communication is a critical aspect of how we work, a cover letter is a great way to provide a sample of how you communicate. In your cover letter, describe why you're interested in working at HashiCorp, and what draws you to this role in particular.

HashiCorp embraces diversity and equal opportunity. We are committed to building a team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills. We believe the more inclusive we are, the better our company will be.
