The Problems You'll Solve

As a Senior Infrastructure Security Engineer, you'll help solve problems such as:

  • How to build a program that ties application security, container security, and cloud security together rather than treating them as separate specialties
  • How to change the application framework to make security the easiest path
  • What tools and information can be provided to ensure developers can effectively peer review code themselves
  • How to encourage developers to continuously think about security using gamification and showing results in the pipeline

The Team You'll Work With

You will be a Senior Infrastructure Security Engineer within Carta's Security Engineering organization, collaborating with application, platform, and other infrastructure security engineers. We partner with product teams to design security solutions that are maintainable and resilient while continually improving our risk posture. Our culture emphasizes blameless problem solving and teamwork at the intersection of infrastructure, security, and DevOps, enabling the business to grow securely. We work in an environment that uses infrastructure-as-code, Kubernetes, and role-based access, with engineers who care about the integrity and security of our data.

The Impact You'll Have

With the power to influence the product, pipeline, and developer onboarding, you'll help continue our security ownership program and have the opportunity to build something new through your research. We are the partner to the engineering organization releasing quality software and we need curious minds to keep paving the way.

About You

  • You have 5+ years of experience applying an engineering-driven approach to solving infrastructure and platform security problems at scale.
  • You thrive in autonomous environments, driving security improvements from idea to implementation.
  • You can analyze vulnerabilities affecting Carta's infrastructure/platform, assess business impact and risk, implement fixes, and prioritize remediation based on severity and exploitability.
  • Proficiency in automations using higher-level scripting languages (Python, Go, Ruby, JavaScript, etc.).
  • Bonus: experience securing containerized environments with practical skills in Docker and Kubernetes.

Salary and Benefits

Carta's compensation package includes a market-competitive salary, equity for full-time roles, exceptional benefits, and, where applicable, commissions. Our minimum cash compensation (salary + commission if applicable) range for this role is:

  • $191,250 - $225,000 in San Francisco, CA; Santa Clara, CA
