About the Role
We are looking for an Infrastructure, Security Engineer to own security across our platform, from cloud infrastructure to application code. You will be our first dedicated security hire and will shape how we think about and implement security at Slash.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Own Slash’s security posture end‑to‑end — from threat modeling to incident response
- Harden our cloud infrastructure (AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform) with secure configurations and least‑privilege access controls
- Implement and maintain security tooling : vulnerability scanning, SIEM, intrusion detection, secrets management
- Lead security reviews of code, architecture, and third‑party integrations
- Own and execute against PCI‑DSS, SOC 2, and other compliance frameworks — not just audits, but actually building the controls
- Build automated security guardrails into our CI / CD pipeline
- Monitor, investigate, and respond to security events; run incident response when needed
- Partner with engineering to fix vulnerabilities and ship secure code — you’ll write patches, not just tickets
- Define and iterate on our security roadmap as we scale
