Precisely is hiring a Platform Engineer to lead security tooling and enablement within Platform Engineering for their global SaaS environment. This is a senior individual contributor role focused on building platforms, automation, and guardrails that help engineering teams adopt security requirements in practical, scalable ways across the software development lifecycle.

• Lead security tooling across application security, dependency and supply chain security, artifact and container security, cloud security posture, and policy-driven workflows
• Build, integrate, and operate tools such as GitHub Advanced Security, JFrog Xray, Prisma, Black Duck, Checkmarx, and similar platforms
• Design automation for vulnerability detection, dependency hygiene, patch planning, remediation tracking, and governed security workflows
• Partner with Security and Engineering teams to turn defined policies into practical controls, delivery pipeline guardrails, and developer-friendly workflows
• Improve the developer experience of security tooling by reducing noise, improving remediation clarity, and helping teams move faster without weakening security controls
• Drive security-focused initiatives and OKR efforts by defining technical approaches, breaking down work, and leading execution
• Support the ongoing health and improvement of security tooling, including internally built or AI-assisted security automation
• Work with operational teams to support secure adoption of AI-enabled engineering tools and build controls around their use
Required qualifications: 2+ years of experience in security engineering, platform engineering, DevOps, SRE, or software engineering in production environments. Strong programming or scripting skills in Go, Python, Bash, or similar languages. Hands-on experience with security tooling across code scanning, dynamic testing, software composition analysis, secret scanning, container/image scanning, artifact security, and cloud security posture management. Experience with GitHub Advanced Security, JFrog Xray, Prisma, Black Duck, Checkmarx, Dependabot, Renovate, or similar platforms. Strong understanding of vulnerability management, dependency management, and security controls within software delivery. Familiarity with Kubernetes, containers, cloud platforms, Git-based workflows, and infrastructure as code. Ability to lead technical initiatives, run proofs of concept, and deliver solutions from ambiguous requirements. Strong collaboration and communication skills.
