Golang Job: Jr. Network Security Engineer

Our mission is to increase economic freedom around the world, and we couldn’t do this without hiring the best people. We’re a group that is deeply focused on building the future of finance and Web 3.0 for our users across the globe, whether they’re trading, storing, staking or using crypto. We seek people who are excited to learn about and live crypto.

We are looking for a skilled Senior Network Security Engineer who is never tired of learning and wants to be a pro in bleeding edge tech like DeFi, NFTs, DAOs, and Web 3.0.

We’re looking for an engineer that can pivot on the fly. Crypto is constantly evolving, so our priorities do, too.

The Network Security Engineer will ensure our technology maintains the high bar that will earn us the trust of millions of users who will be buying, selling and storing billions of dollars worth of digital assets in our products. We measure ourselves by the impact of the work we do, striving to efficiently lower technical risk. The nature of digital assets we custody causes our work to be focused entirely preventatively. We’re looking for someone who believes security is collaborative and prevention is the only scalable security solution.

We offer top tier competitive compensation packages including salary, bonuses and comprehensive benefits including a 401k with company match.

Responsibilities:

-You will become the security expert for multiple product lines, and act as the point of contact for engineering and security.

-Perform architecture reviews to steer projects in the right direction early, participate in security code reviews, and perform penetration testing against products prior to shipping.

-You will help to automate common tasks and patterns so that we don’t have to churn through the same code twice.

-Support engineering with implementing security fixes, ensuring security scanners are utilized correctly, and develop strategies to proactively secure their architecture.

-Review development frameworks for security functionality, consistency, and uplift opportunities.

-Create threat models for products you’re responsible for, and leverage them to prioritize time based on risk impact.

-Educate and train product teams on security topics and skills to extend AppSec’s reach by deputizing product teams to help themselves.

Qualifications:

-Our hiring process tests your competencies in our core technical skillset. Our technical space spans many Protocols, Languages, and Frameworks. Proficiency in at least one of them is required. Current areas are: Blockchains, AWS (Serverless & otherwise), Docker, Golang, NodeJS, Android (Java/Kotlin), iOS (Swift, ObjC), Python. We have use-cases for Java, C/C++, and Rust. Having a history exhibiting high quality execution in our core competencies will help your case.

-As a security partner, we expect you to be capable of shifting between executing on reviews, writing standards, and writing code.

Nice to haves:

-Experience working in a high security and/or highly regulated industry.

-If you have extensive experience securing large codebases, we can immediately start applying what you’ve learned to the code we are asked to secure. Experience training others on how to secure those codebases is a plus.

-If you’re fluent in Digital Assets, you’ll have less to learn about the fundamentals of our business, but we do not immediately decline candidates who are not totally fluent.

-If you have open source application security tooling to your name, we’d love to take a look and understand what problem you are solving and how your solution works. We heavily encourage Open Source contributions!
