About the Role
Role
- Our first product security-focused engineer
- Takes high-level direction (e.g., "identify top five security-related gaps for AX") and drives to results
- Success looks like a LanceDB platform that follows security-related best practices, and an ongoing partnership with other engineers to continuously enhance our security posture in all areas of the product
Day-to-day
- Drive new security-related functionality such as key rotation, user-managed API credentials, RBAC, and the like
- Select, deploy and tune security tooling across all relevant repos and environments, ensuring full coverage
- Apply relevant industry trends, best practices, and specific vulnerabilities to our product
Qualifications
- 8+ years as a software engineer, with a significant portion of that time working on appsec-related work
- Experience working on large-scale data platforms (e.g., databases, data infra, ML/AI systems), including work on concurrency and multitenancy
- Demonstrated ability to code in Rust and/or C++
- Experience building encryption, authentication, and/or authorization features for shipping products at high throughput
- Previous experience working at an early-stage startup
- Demonstrated ownership of ambiguous projects with minimal guidance
- Strong written and verbal communication (can drive alignment across teams)
- Comfortable using data (metrics, experiments, usage) to guide decisions
- Experience contributing to or working with open source communities
Please apply for this role only if you meet all of the above qualifications, and agree with the day-to-day responsibilities. Of particular note: qualified candidates for this role will have day-to-day coding responsibilities - this is an appsec and devsecops role, not an infosec or platform security role.
