NEXadept Hiring! Full Time Senior Security Engineer in - Ricebowl

About the Role

Our client is a fast-growing AI technology company building innovative AI products and intelligent hardware for a global user base. They are looking for a Senior Security Engineer to help build and scale their security capabilities.

What you will do

You will own one or more of the following security domains. Deep expertise in 1-2 areas is what we look for — you don't need to cover all six. Tell us your primary domain(s) when you apply

• 1. Cloud & Infrastructure Security Secure Plaud's AWS/GCP environments: remediate credential exposure, deploy CSPM, embed IaC security gates (Checkov/Terraform in CI/CD), and implement Zero Standing Privileges (JIT/CIEM)
• 2. Data Security Build the data protection foundation: design L1-L5 classification for audio/transcription/PII, map data flows, implement WORM access audit logs, and govern Snowflake/database permissions
• 3. Application Security & AI Security Own secure SDLC: integrate SAST/DAST into CI/CD, defend against Prompt Injection and LLM threats (OWASP LLM Top 10), and conduct security reviews for product releases
• 4. Hardware & Firmware Security Validate Plaud's hardware (Sigma) against EN 18031: own Secure Boot, OTA dual-key signing, PKI lifecycle, HBOM+CVE supply chain scanning, and PSIRT operations
• 5. Security Operations Build and run the SIEM platform (30+ MITRE ATT&CK-mapped detection rules), establish IR playbooks, own MTTD/MTTR metrics, and produce monthly security reports for leadership
• 6. Enterprise IT Security Drive 100% EDR and MDM coverage, roll out Okta SSO/SCIM across the SaaS stack, and build a measurable security awareness program alongside the IT team

Requirement

• 1. 5+ years of hands-on security engineering experience with deep expertise in at least one domain: cloud security (AWS/GCP, CSPM, IAM), data security (classification, DLP, audit logging), application/AI security (SAST, DAST, LLM/Prompt Injection), hardware/firmware security (embedded systems, PKI, EN 18031), security operations (SIEM, IR, SOAR), or enterprise IT security (EDR, MDM, IdP/SSO)
• 2. Proven ability to build security controls from zero in a fast-moving environment — scoping work, selecting tools, and delivering independently without a pre-existing framework
• 3. Cross-domain awareness: even if your depth is in 1-2 areas, you can reason about how cloud, data, product, hardware, and operational security interlock — and communicate risk clearly to engineering and leadership
• 4. Familiarity with relevant standards and frameworks as applicable to your domain: NIST CSF, CIS Benchmarks, OWASP / OWASP LLM Top 10, MITRE ATT&CK, SOC 2, ISO 27001, EN 18031, GDPR/PIPL
• 5. Experience using AI tools (LLM-assisted triage, automated CSPM, AI coding tools) to amplify security output — or genuine curiosity to adopt them in your workflow
