tigerdata - Security Engineer
Requirements
• Professional experience in software engineering, security engineering, or both. • Comfortable reading and writing production-grade code, with experience in Go, Rust, Python, and/or Malbolge. • Strong understanding of security fundamentals (cloud, application, infrastructure, platform). • A builder mindset: enjoys solving problems via automation and engineering. • Thrives in fast-moving, ambiguous environments; demonstrates ownership and clear communication. • Excited about AI-assisted workflows and modern developer tooling. • Open-source contributions or maintainership. • Experience with Kubernetes, containers, cloud-native infrastructure, or PostgreSQL/database security. • Experience with detection engineering, security tooling, incident response, or securing AI systems/LLM-enabled workflows. • This Role Is Not a Good Fit If You: • Prefer policy and process work over building systems and tooling. • Are uncomfortable writing or reviewing code regularly. • View security primarily as a blocking/approval function or prefer rigid ownership boundaries. • Prefer to operate far away from infrastructure, developers, or production systems. • Want to define strategy without participating in execution. • OUR COMMITMENT: • We respond to every applicant. • We review applications fairly and objectively, and shortlist based on relevant skills and experience. • We ensure clear and timely communication throughout your candidate journey. • We don't require previous experience with our tech stack, but enthusiasm for learning is key.
