  • Solving security risks with new, organic solutions.

The following experience is relevant to us:

  • Significant experience on an internal application security team
  • Strong understanding of web or mobile application security
  • Experience as a developer, ideally with Ruby on Rails and Java
  • Pentesting, threat modeling, and architecture review experience
  • Strong communication skills (Did you patiently train your relatives and friends how to use Chrome and enable click to play? Awesome, me too.)
  • 5+ years experience in security engineering, or a related discipline
