WHAT YOU'LL NEED

- 2+ years at a regulated fintech/bank/payment company
- Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure security (AWS, Kubernetes)
- Working knowledge of SIEM platforms and detection engineering - you've written detection rules, not just consumed alerts
- Familiarity with application security practices: threat modelling, secure code review, CI/CD pipeline hardening, and API security testing
- Experience with endpoint security tooling (EDR/XDR) and identity & access management in a SaaS-heavy environment (Google Workspace, Okta/Cloudflare Access, SSO/SCIM)
- Ability to assess and secure emerging AI/agentic tooling - you understand the risks of LLM integrations, MCP servers, and automated workflows, and can define practical guardrails
