What You’ll Do:

We are seeking a Senior Security Engineer to own key technical work in CoreWeave’s Vulnerability Management program. You will build and improve triage, prioritization, and remediation-tracking systems across application, infrastructure, and hardware domains. You will deliver well-scoped projects, contribute to technical standards, and work closely with senior engineers and stakeholders to drive execution.

About the role:

• Own VM technical projects end to end and contribute to architecture decisions for your areas of the program
• Build and maintain triage automation, including integrations, decision logic, and production hardening
• Implement workflow components from assessment and detection to ticket routing and remediation tracking
• Investigate and triage hardware-adjacent vulnerabilities (GPU firmware, DPU firmware/BlueField, and BMC surfaces) alongside senior engineers
• Support response to embargoed disclosures and zero-day events, working with owner teams that deploy fixes
• Contribute to prioritization logic, severity models, and exception workflows through code, design reviews, and technical proposals
• Build technical metrics and risk reporting that inform program and leadership decisions
• Take part in root-cause analysis for vulnerability incidents and implement technical improvements
• Share knowledge through code reviews and documentation, and help onboard new teammates
• Partner with security, engineering, and operational stakeholders to improve workflow reliability and speed up remediation

Who You Are:

• 5+ years of relevant experience in vulnerability management, application security, platform security, or cloud security engineering
• Experience building security automation (SOAR workflows, AI/ML systems, detection pipelines) in production environments
• Solid working knowledge of vulnerability management best practices: CVSS, EPSS, CISA KEV, threat intelligence integration, and risk-based prioritization frameworks
• Strong development background, with coding skills in Python, Go, or similar languages for building production-grade security systems
• Hands-on experience with modern vulnerability management tooling (for example Wiz, Semgrep, Rapid7, Tenable, or equivalent)
• Familiarity with specialized infrastructure (GPU/DPU environments, firmware security, hardware vulnerabilities, or high-performance computing) is a plus
• Track record of collaborating across teams to deliver technical projects
• Understanding of how security decisions affect engineering velocity, customer trust, and business outcomes

Preferred:

• Experience building AI/ML-powered security systems (LLM integration, automated decision-making, human-in-the-loop validation)
• Exposure to hardware vendor security work (embargoed disclosures and pre-release collaboration)
• Experience with security automation platforms such as TINES and serverless frameworks (AWS Lambda, GCP Cloud Functions)
• DevOps, DevSecOps, or SRE background with experience in AWS/GCP/Azure cloud services and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation)
• Working knowledge of Kubernetes security (container scanning, admission controllers, supply chain security, runtime protection)
• Experience working in fast-growing startup or cloud-native environments
• Experience managing vulnerabilities in a FedRAMP-certified environment or under similar regulatory frameworks
