🏢 About Teads

We’re hiring a Senior Security Engineer to help shift security left across product and platform teams, while also supporting internal corporate security needs. You’ll drive impact through enablement, automation, and practical risk reduction.

🎯 The Role

You’ll secure both what we build and how we work. That means embedding security into our products and CI/CD, and also supporting internal teams.

Security here is not a gate; it’s a force multiplier. You’ll help engineering teams move faster safely, and ensure our colleagues have a secure foundation to do their best work.

Success means faster, safer releases and fewer reactive security escalations.

✅ Key Responsibilities

• Partner with developers to embed security into design, build, and deploy stages
• Automate vulnerability triage and mitigation flows
• Secure CI/CD pipelines (GitHub, Jenkins) and execution environments (Kubernetes, Docker)
• Tune WAFs, manage cloud security (AWS, GCP, Azure), and evolve Terraform practices
• Support internal teams with secure production accesses, endpoint hardening, and access policies
• Lead security reviews across app, infra, and corporate environments
• Advocate for security standards with clarity and empathy

📌 Required Qualifications

• See security as an enabler of speed, not an obstacle
• Are comfortable in cloud and on-prem worlds
• Value autonomy, and naturally take ownership from idea to execution
• Can zoom out to prioritize risks and zoom in to fix root causes
• Communicate clearly with devs, ops, and business teams alike
• Eager to work in a technically challenging environment

⭐ Desirable Experience

• Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes
• Modern security tools
• GitHub Actions, Jenkins
• AWS, Azure, GCP
• Teams building external-facing services (web apps, APIs) and internal platforms (CI/CD, admin tooling) to embed security by design.
• Supporting a public company environment with compliance requirements across multiple standards, including SOC 2 and ISO 27001
