As a Senior Security Engineer, you will be a key contributor in leading security initiatives for PagerDuty’s SaaS offerings, focusing on application security through architecture reviews, threat modeling sessions, and defining secure-by-design product standards and protections that support PagerDuty’s security mission. Since we own and operate what we build, you’ll collaborate closely with engineers across many product development teams. You will work closely with our internal development teams to ensure we deliver secure, highly reliable, and scalable solutions to our customers.

  • Work with loosely defined requirements where you exercise your analytical skills to clarify questions, share your approach, and collaborate with the team to design and implement effective security frameworks.
  • Participate in the team’s On-Call rotation, triaging and addressing security issues as they arise, and implement measures to prevent future occurrences.
  • Enable service team security implementations by developing security-as-code constructs, including infrastructure-as-code (IaC) modules, libraries and frontend components.
  • Establish and uphold baseline standards and hardened configurations for platform components.
  • Continuously enhance security frameworks by focusing on product security standards and software supply chain protections, tailored for application security in cloud-native, microservices environments.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

  • SIEM (e.g., SumoLogic, LogRythm, or Splunk)
  • Container Security (e.g., Kubernetes, EKS)
  • CI/CD Discipline (e.g., CircleCI, Buildkite, Helm, Terraform, Chef)
  • Security Incident Response & Risk Management
  • 4 years of experience and proficiency in at least one programming language and framework (e.g., Python, Bash, Phoenix/Elixir, Java, Ruby on Rails).
  • Exceptional written, oral communication, and interpersonal skills.
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to successfully manage multiple priorities and deadlines.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

  • Strong hands-on experience in deploying secure coding practices, automation, threat modeling and application security solutions.
  • Strong understanding of modern application architectures, including microservices, containerization, and cloud-native applications.
  • Experience with obtaining and maintaining FedRAMP authorization.
  • Experience working at a SaaS company larger than 1,000 employees and $100M in revenue.
  • Ability to analyze complex problems, and implementing these solutions with a growing proficiency in change management.
