- Continuous Learning: Stay up to date with the latest security threats, tools, and best practices to drive continuous improvement in security practices.
Who you are:
- Self-Starter: You are comfortable working autonomously in a team of one for now but have the potential to mentor junior hires in the future.

- Collaborative Team Player: You thrive in a fully remote environment and value communication, teamwork, and the exchange of ideas.

- Familiarity with serverless architectures (AppEngine, S3).
- Experience securing CI/CD pipelines with tools such as GitLab CI/CD, including automated testing (SAST/DAST).
- Experience with Datadog, Sentry, and other monitoring or vulnerability management tools.
