Senior Security Engineer at January, enhancing security for consumer finance. Architecting systems to protect sensitive data and drive security-first culture.
Responsibilities
Embed security as a competitive advantage: Transforms January's security into product capabilities that banks choose us for, not just a compliance checkbox they tolerate. Unlocks Tier 1 partnerships and enterprise deals competitors can't close.
Drive security-by-design across product and application development: Partners with product and engineering to identify and elevate critical risks before production, with deep focus on application security (frontend, Flask services, database). Embeds security into discovery and design while building secure-by-default patterns into development workflows. Accelerates product development through early engagement and clear guidance, not late-stage gate-keeping.
Architect systems for bank-grade data protection: Designs and implements data classification, encryption, and access control meeting regulated client requirements. Establishes automated controls ensuring sensitive data never leaves authorized boundaries.
Cultivate a security-first engineering culture: Influences engineering teams to adopt security-first thinking without sacrificing velocity. Leads incident response with clarity and urgency, ensuring January emerges from security events stronger through rigorous post-mortems.
Scale compliance with minimal overhead: Maintains SOC 2, PCI-DSS, and financial compliance through automated systems. Builds infrastructure that auto-generates audit evidence and eliminates compliance bottlenecks.
