# Security Engineer

TL;DR We sell trust, and security is core to that promise. We're looking for someone to lead how we think about code and operational security as we scale. You'll help design the systems, practices, and safeguards that enable us to grow without compromising on that trust. About us We believe stablecoins are better money and will be the backbone of better payments. We see key structural problems hindering stablecoin adoption, and we’re going to fix them - starting with building a clearinghouse. We’re a small, scrappy team based in NYC, we’ve raised $10M from a16z crypto and other excellent partners, and we’re going to bring better money to the world. What you'll do: Own our security posture across application security, infrastructure security, and operational security. Conduct code reviews, threat modeling, and penetration testing to identify and remediate vulnerabilities. Design and implement security controls, monitoring, and incident response processes appropriate for a regulated payments environment. Establish security policies, procedures, and compliance frameworks (SOC 2, PCI-DSS, etc.) as we scale. Hire, manage, and supervise specialist contractors or future security hires
