Staff Product Security Engineer

Job Description

We are Atelio by FIS, and our mission is to empower developers across all verticals to easily imagine, create, and monetize financial products to profoundly transform the way the entire financial industry consumes services. Today, it's difficult for many businesses to build the financial products they imagine. Whether that's launching a new credit or debit card, a savings account, a lending business, or anything else — there are barriers in the way that require excessive time and effort. We make it easy for businesses to compliantly offer financial products and innovate on their key differentiators rather than spend their time building and maintaining financial infrastructure. 

Given the criticality of the data we handle for ourselves and our client brands, we need to set and exceed fintech / banking standards for cybersecurity and data protection. To achieve that goal, we are looking for a Staff Product Security Engineer to help us secure our future.

You will be a strong contributor to both the strategic and the tactical initiatives of our organization. You will help us work backwards from the big picture, balancing the speed of a startup with high security standards. You will identify potential problems and develop proactive solutions to mitigate them while enabling us to stay innovative and agile.

In our team, technical contributors at this level are both visionary leaders and hands-on builders. They work on our hardest and most ambiguous problems. They have strong technical judgment and the communication skills to influence at the CTO and executive level as a key technical advisor. They provide both architectural guidance and detailed technical direction while nurturing a culture of continuous delivery.

If you are a software or infrastructure engineer with a strong interest in security, you are encouraged to apply. If you’ve written your own tools to perform security assessments, have insight into the latest breaches and vulnerabilities, build or want to learn to build for high scale, understand the tradeoffs between security and agility, exploit web and/or network vulnerabilities for fun, and continually seek to improve your skill set, we want to hear from you.

Note: We have a hybrid work environment in our Seattle/Bellevue, office unless the role or business dictates otherwise.

What you will be doing

• Develop and implement security solutions, architectures, and tools to ensure regulatory compliance.
• Collaborate with product teams to threat model features, and identify and mitigate risks.
• Design, build, and own security and privacy features supporting product engineering and customer operations.
• Help drive the direction of the organization by operationalizing common security patterns and advancing our roadmap.
• Proactively identify and remedy potential security risks to customer data.
• Enhance the security reasoning and knowledge of the greater engineering team, including executive leadership.

What you will need

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or a related field; or equivalent experience.
• 10+ years of relevant experience, preferably in a financial services or technology company.
• Proven experience designing, implementing, and assessing secure architectures.
• In-depth knowledge of security best practices, including secure coding, vulnerability assessment, and penetration testing.

• Experience writing software in Python, GoLang, and/or Java; or equivalent.
