M&T BankFull Time
Senior (5 to 8 years), Expert & Leadership (9+ years)
Candidates should possess experience supporting engineering and product implementation efforts through threat assessments, assurance activities, and advisory roles, including implementation work across distributed systems with web, API, and client/server assets. Strong knowledge and experience with cloud service providers like AWS, GCP, or Azure, Kubernetes, and Cilium are required. Experience implementing and operating engineering security tools and processes such as static/dynamic code analysis, software composition analysis, SBOM, OWASP SAMM, and fuzzing tools is necessary. Significant development and automation experience, with the ability to work with C++ code and a security-as-code mindset focused on automation and scale, are essential. A BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science or a related field, previous contributions to open-source projects, and security or cloud-related certifications are considered bonus points.
The Product Security Engineer will collaborate with engineering and product teams to enhance existing and develop new product features, focusing on threat modeling, assurance, and secure implementation, including secure key management, passwordless authentication, sandboxing, and isolation. They will identify security gaps and vulnerabilities in ClickHouse Cloud and OSS, triage reported vulnerabilities from bug bounty programs and responsible disclosure, and improve security assurance activities like pentests, vulnerability assessments, bug bounty programs, and fuzzing. The role involves driving the implementation and usage of engineering security tools for static/dynamic code analysis, dependency checks, and code licensing compliance, nurturing the engineering-security relationship, and handling information security events and incidents. Additionally, they will develop processes, tooling, and automation to scale security processes and mitigate business risks.
