Senior Software Engineer - Edge-Services Security
StubHub is on a mission to redefine the live event experience on a global scale. We’re dedicated to delighting fans and sellers from search to the gate, offering a safe, convenient way to buy and sell tickets to millions of fans worldwide. Join StubHub's Edge Services team as a Software/Security Engineer and help shape the global infrastructure that keeps millions of users connected, secure, and engaged at the edge. You’ll work on state-of-the-art CDN architecture, bot mitigation, and real-time fraud defenses, collaborating with security and platform teams to drive innovation at massive scale. Location: Hybrid (3 days in office/2 days remote) – New York, NY or Santa Monica, CA or Aliso Viejo, CA About the team:
The Edge Services team powers StubHub’s global content delivery and edge security. The team is responsible for CDN infrastructure, bot management, DNS, and traffic-layer protections that keep our customers safe and our site performant. The team treats edge infrastructure as a product—standardizing interfaces, applying zero-trust principles to edge security, and building scalable tooling to enable internal teams. The team collaborates with Security Engineering, SRE, and product development teams to ensure availability, reliability, and security of StubHub’s edge services. What You’ll Do: Design, implement, and operate CDN infrastructure using AWS CloudFront, Global Accelerator, bot management, and related services. Develop scalable systems for detecting and mitigating malicious automated traffic, using commercial bot management platforms and homegrown controls. Codify reusable Infrastructure as Code (IaC) modules to enable other teams to deploy edge services safely and consistently. Integrate with fraud detection pipelines to inform real-time blocking or scoring decisions at the edge. Collaborate with security and platform teams to enforce zero-trust controls, request validation, and origin shielding. Drive edge observability strategy using metrics, traces, and logs to detect anomalies and optimize performance. Evaluate and implement new technologies (e.g., edge compute, rate limiting frameworks, multi-CDN failover strategies). Participate in incident response and root cause analysis for edge service outages or abuse-related escalations. What You’ve Done: Expert-level experience with AWS edge and networking services (CloudFront, WAF, Route53, Shield, Global Accelerator). Expert-level proficiency with Terraform and infrastructure-as-code patterns in production. Deep experience with enterprise-grade bot management platforms (e.g., HUMAN, AWS Bot Control, Cloudflare Bot Management, Akamai Bot Manager). Advanced knowledge of HTTP protocol, CDN caching, edge compute functions (e.g., Lambda@Edge), and TLS management. Strong software development experience in modern languages (e.g., Python, Go, TypeScript, Java). Track record of building safe, observable, and performant infrastructure at scale. Familiarity with building and scaling fraud prevention systems or integrating with fraud intelligence platforms is a plus. Preferred Skills and Qualifications: Experience authoring real-time request evaluation logic at the edge. Familiarity with HTTP/2, QUIC, and emerging transport protocols for low-latency content delivery. Familiarity with custom device fingerprinting, rate limiting, and CAPTCHA orchestration. Experience supporting traffic segmentation, geo-steering, or multi-CDN architecture. Background in high-scale event collection and processing for edge analytics. Proficiency in defense-in-depth mechanisms for Layer 7 attacks. Proficiency in building distributed rate-limiting or request scoring systems. Familiarity with secure system design and zero-trust architectures. Contributions to open-source projects in edge, networking, or observability spaces. What We Offer: Accelerated Growth Environment: autonomy to lead experiments and tests at scale. Top Tier Compensation Package: stock incentives aligned with contributions. Flexible Time Off: unlimited Flex Time Off for work-life balance. Comprehensive Benefits: 401k and premium health, vision, and dental insurance. Team-Building Events: activities that foster collaboration and growth. The anticipated gross base pay range is below for this role. Actual compensation will vary based on qualifications, skills, experience, and competencies. Base annual salary is one component of StubHub’s total compensation and benefits package, which includes equity, 401(k), paid time off, parental leave, and comprehensive health benefits.
