About the role

Security Operations Engineer

Work at the frontline of security operations in a globally distributed, high-scale developer platform environment. You will triage security alerts, handle sensitive customer security requests, and support internal IT and identity operations across time zones.

Responsibilities

  • Triage security alerts as first responder (threat monitoring outputs, vulnerability advisories) and escalate appropriately
  • Handle customer-facing security operations cases such as:
    • account recovery
    • authentication issues
    • ownership verification
    • access disputes
  • Support incident response via an on-call rotation, following playbooks and escalation procedures
  • Maintain and improve operational documentation, including:
    • runbooks
    • decision trees
    • support macros
  • Triage internal IT and identity management requests, including:
    • SSO
    • access provisioning
    • device-related support issues
  • Ensure clear, accurate communication with customers, engineers, and internal teams during time-critical incidents
  • Identify recurring issues and contribute to automation and workflow optimization across security operations

Requirements

  • Experience in triage-heavy security/support environments, such as technical support, IT helpdesk, SOC analysis, trust & safety, or fraud operations
  • Basic understanding of security principles: authentication, MFA, access control, identity verification, session management
  • Familiarity with SSO and identity providers (e.g., Okta)
  • Comfort with command-line tools and ability to interpret logs, scripts, or structured data
  • Ability to summarize complex/noisy security incidents into clear, actionable insights
  • Strong communication skills; remain calm and precise under pressure
  • Analytical mindset focused on improving processes, documentation, and workflows
  • Ability to work asynchronously across global time zones with strong written communication

Nice to Have

  • Familiarity with cloud/developer ecosystems such as AWS and PostgreSQL
  • Experience with operational tools such as Front, Linear, Notion, Vanta, Kandji, Jamf, or similar
  • Exposure to security activities (e.g., CTFs, bug bounty, open-source contributions)
  • Basic scripting/automation experience for support or security workflows

Benefits / Work Model

  • Fully remote global role with asynchronous collaboration
  • Equity via employee stock ownership program
  • Technology allowance and comprehensive health insurance
  • Flexible, outcome-based working model
  • Learning/professional development budget and co-working allowance
  • Annual international off-site gatherings
