Through compassionate, individualized care, a culture focused on compliance and ethics, supportive user-centric technology, and customized financial solutions, we've helped over 1 million clients on their path to a brighter future.\nWhile we're proud of what we've already accomplished, we're searching for new collaborators to help us get to the next level! If you're looking to join a forward-thinking, rapidly growing organization with helping people as its number one goal, we want to hear from you.\nThe Role\nAs a Senior Security Engineer, you'll harden the security posture of our AWS environment and our software development pipeline. Cloud Security and vulnerability management in Wiz are the primary focus.\nYou'll partner with DevOps, Engineering, and our Application Security Engineer to build preventative controls across infrastructure, identity, and CI/CD. The work is hands-on: configuring tooling, reviewing architecture, hardening pipelines, and supporting application security work where your range is needed.\nKey Responsibilities\nOwn cloud security posture across our AWS environment using Wiz and AWS-native services, reducing risk across IAM, network segmentation, container security, secrets, and data exposure.\nEstablish secure defaults in our Infrastructure as Code through reusable modules, guardrails, and policy as code.\nHarden CI/CD pipelines in partnership with DevOps.\nRun vulnerability management across cloud and application findings: intake, prioritization, SLA tracking, and remediation with engineering.\nBuild automation that scales the program: ingestion, deduplication, prioritization, and developer-facing workflows.\nInstrument telemetry, alerting, and runbooks for the systems you own.\nOperate and tune our WAF: managed and custom rules, rate limiting, and bot mitigation.\nRequirements\n5+ years of hands-on security engineering across cloud security and vulnerability management.\nStrong AWS security background: IAM, networking, container orchestration, and logging and audit.\nHands-on experience securing CI/CD pipelines and Infrastructure as Code; Terraform required.\nExperience running or substantially contributing to a vulnerability management program.\nWorking knowledge of OWASP Top 10 and threat modeling.\nOperates independently and drives projects without day-to-day oversight.\nNice to Have\nExperience with our stack: Wiz, Cloudflare (WAF, Gateway, Zero Trust), GitHub Advanced Security, Spacelift, and AWS-native services.\nHands-on WAF experience in production: writing and tuning rules, managing false positives, responding when something gets through.\nAI/ML security exposure: prompt injection, data poisoning, model abuse, and the controls that mitigate them.\nSecrets management platforms (AWS Secrets Manager, Keeper, Infisical).\nIdentity security across human and non-human identities.\nPCI-regulated or financial services environment.\nFamiliarity with Ruby on Rails, Python, or Go.\nThe Ideal Candidate\nThe ideal candidate measures success by reduced risk, not tickets closed, and reaches for secure design and simplicity before another control. They think like an attacker but bring a developer mindset to their partnership with engineering, connecting the dots across cloud, identity, and pipeline rather than treating each as a separate domain. Engineers trust their technical judgment, and when something is blocked, they come with a proposed path forward.\nThe base annual salary range is listed below. This role is eligible for additional incentives, including an annual bonus.\nBase Salary Range\n$140,000—$165,000 USD\nWhy Join Us?\nWhile you make a difference for others, we’ll work to make a difference for you, providing an uplifting, collaborative work environment and benefits that reflect your value to us. For eligible full-time employees, we offer:\nConsiderable employer contributions for health, dental, and vision programs\nGenerous PTO, paid holidays, and paid parental leave\n401(k) matching program\nMerit advancement opportunities\nCareer development & training\nAnd finally, our team spirit and culture! Wecultivate an environment of community, connection, and belonging across our entire organization.\nBeyond Finance does not accept unsolicited resumes from individual recruiters or third-party recruiting agencies in response to job positions.
