You’ll collaborate with multi-functional teams to integrate leading security practices throughout the organization and mentor junior engineers, sharing your passion and expertise to cultivate a strong, forward-thinking security culture.
Additionally, you'll actively shape product direction, security strategy, and innovation initiatives, staying ahead of emerging trends and providing guidance on new technologies and effective methodologies to maintain our security.
