Software Engineer 3, Security
About the role
You must be work authorized in the United States without the need for employer sponsorship. This is a hybrid role requiring 3 days a week in a CJ office location (www.cj.com).
Responsibilities
- Triage and respond to vulnerabilities identified through tools such as Wiz, Veracode, and penetration tests, and help drive them to resolution
- Analyze infrastructure and codebases to produce evidence-backed answers about real risk - exploitability, reachability, and impact - rather than relaying scanner severity alone
- Partner with engineers to articulate the actual threat (or lack of one) behind a code or infrastructure finding
- Remediate findings directly when you have the context - whether in EngExp's own infrastructure or another team's - and drive remediation through partnership where you don't
- Integrate security checks (SAST/DAST) into GitLab CI/CD pipelines so issues are caught at build and merge-request time, not only in point-in-time scans
- Contribute to security standards and best practices, and coach teams through adopting them
- Help verify AI-proposed fixes and risk assessments against the actual code, config, and runtime context before they're accepted
Qualifications
- 3+ years of software or infrastructure engineering experience, with hands-on exposure to application or infrastructure security
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
- Can read code and infrastructure config, not just interpret scanner output
- Understands common vulnerability classes and how to reason about exploitability and impact
- Enough AWS/Kubernetes fluency to have credible technical conversations with the teams that operate them
- Comfortable translating technical findings for non-security stakeholders and driving fixes through influence rather than authority
- Nice To Have: Experience wiring automated security scanning into CI/CD pipelines, familiarity with threat modeling and secure-by-design review, interest in emerging threats, including AI systems, and willingness to learn fast
