The Problems You'll Solve

At Carta, our employees set out on a mission to unlock the power of equity ownership for more people in more places. We believe that the problems we solve today unlock the opportunities of tomorrow. As a Senior Application Security Engineer, you’ll work to help us solve problems including:

  1. How do we build tooling, automation, and infrastructure that empowers our engineering organization to move fast while simultaneously improving product security?
  2. How do we improve the software development lifecycle to make security the path of least resistance?
  3. Which tools and what guidance can we provide developers to ensure that they are able to peer review code in the most effective manner?
  4. How do we encourage developers to seamlessly consider and continuously think about security?

The Team You'll Work With

You'll be joining the Product Security team within the Information Security organization. The Product Security organization protects our customers’ data, investments, and livelihood by ensuring Carta’s products are designed and implemented to the highest security standards.

You will be working with the team to take on projects which identify security vulnerabilities from many sources, automatically build security into our product, and provide a paved road for engineering teams to produce secure software. Our risk model puts teams in charge of owning risk which makes us a trusted partner. To complete this mission, we need people who share our passion for creating engineering solutions to complex security problems.

The Impact You’ll Have

You will leverage your ability to improve Carta’s product, pipeline, and developer experience in order to pave the way for security ownership by all product teams across the company. You will be a key partner for engineering teams releasing high-quality and secure software.

About You

We are looking for a proactive individual who is able to:

  • Advise on risks related to application, container, and cloud security vulnerabilities.
  • Automate tasks for themselves or developers.
  • Understand threat modeling, general software development practices and the components of a modern product security program.
  • Be an empathetic security consultant on new and existing products, perform code reviews, and conduct penetration tests to proactively identify vulnerabilities.
  • Educate Product and Engineering teams on relevant security topics.
  • Experience with a variety of product security testing tools (e.g. Burp Suite, OWASP Zap, Semgrep, CodeQL, etc).
  • Have 6+ years of experience implementing scalable security programs.
  • Have software development experience with several interpreted or compiled programming languages.
  • Be a team player who is considerate of others.
