More about our mission.
About the role
We are looking for a Security Engineer with a focus on the SDLC, with interest in all aspects of cyber security.
You will be joining in an embedded role in the Developer Enablement Squad, working within our CI, CD and Engineering Experience teams. The role will also involve being a conduit to various Security teams (e.g. Application Security, Security Engineering, amongst others).
As Wise continues to grow, our systems and complexity increases. We face an increasing need to ensure that malicious attackers or threats are mitigated with best-in-class technology, tooling and processes. The SDLC is how we deliver changes quickly to our customers, and ensuring this is done securely is an increasingly important part of managing cybersecurity risk.
Wise operates globally, and our working practices must meet the standards of the various regulatory requirements of the jurisdictions in which we operate. But that does not mean we have to do exactly what larger and older banks do. Security will always have trade-offs, and we need to make sure that we also balance this with developer productivity and teams’ understanding of best practices..
How we work
We operate on a strong belief in automation, programmatic implementation and reusable design. We’re looking for people who can step back and think holistically about the ecosystem but also follow through and help implement the design, drawing on the resources across the rest of the platform tribe.
Initially, you will be working in an individual team within the squad. As we grow, the role will expand and you will work across all teams in the squad. focusing on long-term projects aimed to improve our security posture in the SDLC. We want you to be able to consider parts where we need better guardrails, automation or processes, where we make it easy to do the right thing for all of our engineers at Wise. We’re looking for an engineer that is looking to work at the intersection of cutting-edge software supply-chain technologies, such as SLSA and OpenSSF standards, and rolling that out across Wise’s large engineering estate. As you get more familiar with Wise, we expect you to be able to analyse complex requirements and deliver simple solutions to help our teams achieve our mission with speed and confidence.
What will you be working on?
Working closely with Platform and Security engineers, in order to secure the SDLC;
Able to threat model across various CI/CD systems and processes;
Design, build and collaborate on technologies and solutions for improving software supply chain posture;
Understand how teams use various languages (Java, Python, nodejs), what best practices look like when developers use build chains, tooling and ecosystem;
Understanding security requirements from regulators and compliance at a global level, and designing/help build scalable solutions
