Job Details - this job has expired, please see similar jobs below
Netflix has an innovative culture that often guides us to solve problems differently. One example is that we give employees tremendous freedom, along with the corresponding responsibility that comes with it. This helps keep engineering velocity high, but also means that our security teams cannot operate as you have seen in more traditional companies. Instead of controlling engineers with process and security gates, we enable engineers to create secure code without slowing things down.
We aren’t your typical Application Security team. Our culture only works when we have a diverse and collaborative team of security experts that are equally at home breaking and building systems. You will have an opportunity to work and grow in a variety of areas including:
• threat modeling,
• security assessments and code reviews,
• and providing architectural guidance.
While the engineers we work with take responsibility for fixing their own system, you will have plenty of opportunities to write code. You will develop tools and frameworks to support engineers throughout the company with a variety of security-related tasks. Ideally, you’d be excited about helping with our open source projects in these areas such as Scumblr (https://github.com/Netflix/Scumblr).
We understand that candidates may come from all different education levels and backgrounds. We encourage this! If you enjoy working on the kinds of problems outlined above, then we should talk.
Finally, here’s a few more reasons why we love this work and think that you will too:
• You would have the opportunity to facilitate big changes here at Netflix.
• You would be working with a relatively new team with many fun existing projects and opportunities for you to identify the need for and create new ones.
• You are a big fan of open source software and sharing information. For example, this may include presenting at conferences or working collaboratively within Netflix. We share when it makes sense and are always researching new ideas from across the community.
• You enjoy learning and working closely with subject matter experts in diverse areas such as microservice architectures, big data, content delivery networks, and a production studio.
We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity of thought, culture, background, and perspective at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.<!---->
