As Senior Security Engineer, you'll be the primary security engineer for the platform technology organization, owning security and compliance across IT and software development practices at the frontier of LLM-agentic product development.

Key responsibilities include: managing SecOps software in GCP and Vanta; continuously monitoring and improving deployed software's security posture; validating software correctness, security, and customer privacy; managing compliance standards and diligence work lifecycle; maintaining a database of core security artifacts and documenting processes; building data and AI governance frameworks for internal operations; selecting and auditing technologies for internal use; and ensuring compliance with contractual obligations and security standards.
You'll need 5+ years of post-university industry experience with strong expertise in Vanta and SecOps platforms, cloud DevOps IaC (preferably Terraform/OpenTofu), auditing cloud-based LLM tools, IT procurement and security vetting, SAML/SSO/SCIM/OIDC/identity management, and security-focused design and code reviews. Experience in high-growth, highly regulated industries (healthcare, finance, or defense) is essential. Nice-to-haves include SOC II and HITRUST audit process leadership, vendor relationship management, Google Security Command Center, Auth0/Okta, and programming experience in Golang, TypeScript, or Python.
