The Purpose:
At PPRO, Lead Engineers (m/w/x) make significant decisions for the company. As Product Security Lead Engineer, you’ll play a pivotal role in driving PPRO’s mission to provide robust, secure, scalable and resilient systems. You’ll have a significant impact on our technical strategies, our system landscape, and on our culture, spirit and ways of working.
This role gives you the opportunity to showcase your deep, all-round security skills, combined with robust software engineering expertise. You’ll solve complex technical problems relating to security, compliance and resilience, participating in decisions on architecture and technical direction, supporting and mentoring other teams to embed a “secure by design” philosophy and working alongside engineers in the code.
You’ll be adept at switching between high-level strategic thinking and hands-on coding. You’ll develop secure solution architectures and build Security as Code solutions that can be leveraged by developers, ensuring seamless, consistent controls which enable robust, high-velocity delivery. You’ll conduct threat modelling, designing and building repeatable solutions and patterns to address key findings. You’ll provide application and product security support, interfacing across Engineering and Product teams. If you have an interest in how security and counter-fraud controls can work together to better support robust financial services and safeguard customers, this will be a great opportunity for you to have a positive impact at scale across the payments ecosystem.
What you’ll do:
* Design and deliver strategic, cross-team/cross-domain security and compliance projects, architectures and initiatives.
* Build consumable Security as Code artefacts and patterns to allow developers seamlessly integrate security and reduce friction.
* Collaborate with Product and Engineering teams to ensure security principles, practices and controls are embedded into the software development lifecycle and into PPRO’s software development culture, agile methodologies and mob/pair programming approaches.
* Establish company-wide security standards and share best practices.
* Conduct threat modelling exercises to identify and mitigate potential security risks; maintain threat models for critical systems and applications; provide guidance and support on threat mitigation strategies to development and operations teams.
* Provide expert advice and support on product and application security issues.
* Drive strategic security assessments and penetration testing of applications.
* Identify emerging security threats and trends, and develop proactive measures to address them.
* Collaborate and grow in a dynamic and autonomous environment, providing cross-functional support in a lean, agile environment.
* Evaluate and recommend the latest technologies to solve security problems and meet customers at significant scale and velocity.
* Drive innovation and efficiencies, providing thought leadership on emerging best practices that can support PPRO as market leaders.
What we look for in you:
* Results-oriented, highly collaborative, pragmatic and proactive, and with a continuous improvement mindset.
* Expert experience in security architecture and application/product security, with a strong background in software development.
* Experience designing and building scalable security controls, architecture and services, taking strategic decisions and having a wide impact.
* Strong expertise in cloud (preferably AWS, and GCP) and container security (Kubernetes, Docker).
* Deep understanding of designing and building DevSecOps and CI/CD security controls, in line with best practices.
* Great problem solving abilities.
* Developer mindset and empathetic approach to find innovative “win-win” solutions.
* Security qualifications a bonus.
* Excellent communication and collaboration skills and fluent proficient in English.
