Software Security Engineer

Security is something we take seriously. Our products and systems handle sensitive information at a massive scale. The critical nature of our business means that the code we ship and systems we use must abide by strict security practices. We’re looking to add a Software Security Engineer who can improve upon existing security and build new tools and bring fresh ideas from all areas, including distributed computing, large-scale system design, networking, data storage and machine learning. You obviously need to possess a full suite of software development skills but really have a passion and interest in security/privacy related matters. This role will work closely with our Engineering, IT and Business teams but report directly to the VP of Strategy.
