What We Do
The Security Engineering team ensures that Mapbox is a secure and privacy-minded location platform.

You will be responsible for enabling the security of the Mapbox platform, a surface area that ranges from the Mapbox SDK installed on millions of end-user devices worldwide, to a fleet of Docker-based and serverless applications running on AWS.

- 5+ years experience building and hardening complex microservice-based systems in Serverless and Kubernetes environments using infrastructure-as-a-code GitOps approach
- 3+ years experience running successful internal and external pen-testing programs
- Expertise in threat modeling, secure coding, and various security tools such as SAST, DAST/IAST, SCA, IDS/IPS, WAF, SIEM/SOAR
- Experience building secure infrastructure by architecting network configurations, implementing network scans and threat detection frameworks, implementing privileged access management platforms (PAM)
- Strong Security incident handling, remediation and customers communication experience, including 0-day response process
- Deep and Broad experience with AWS
- Experience with cloud-native security frameworks
- Experience with security, compliance, and privacy standards such as SOC, GDPR, ISO27001, ASPICE, FedRAMP is ideal
- Personal drive for continual growth, both as an engineering leader and security expert
- Clear and persuasive communication of complex information to a broad audience, and a commitment to fostering and growing cross-team relationships
- Previous experience building and leading a high-performing team that delivered high-impact and high-value work
- Ability to take on a business ownership role, and be able to ramp up quickly and operate independently
- Commitment to recruiting, building, and retaining a diverse team
