Application Security Engineer

Developers around the world extend Shopify's capabilities by building applications using our APIs. We want those applications to meet the same high security standard as the rest of the Shopify ecosystem. And we want to give application developers the tools and advice they need to make securing their applications as straightforward as possible. We are looking for an application security specialist who will identify and respond to vulnerabilities in applications, and partner with developers to help them build security into their apps.

You'll need to have:

  • Experience testing web applications for security issues such as XSS, CSRF, and insecure direct object references
  • The ability to explain security issues to developers
  • An interest in finding creative ways to make it easy for developers to secure their apps
