New York, New York, United States Radar Full time
Job Overview

Position Summary

We are seeking a talented Engineer to spearhead our Security and Compliance initiatives. Our infrastructure is designed to manage a variety of workloads, processing a staggering volume of API calls daily. Given that we handle sensitive location information gathered from mobile devices, ensuring the security and compliance of our systems is critical. We have made significant investments in this area, yet there remains ample opportunity to enhance our security framework. This role is perfect for an individual aspiring to eventually become a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO).

Technical Environment:

Our infrastructure operates on AWS, utilizing Terraform for management.

We employ AWS Security Hub for comprehensive cloud monitoring, AWS Inspector for vulnerability assessments, and AWS GuardDuty for detecting intrusions and preventing malware.

Our servers and employee devices are fortified using CIS benchmarks and secure images.

We utilize Snyk and GitHub Advanced Security to monitor our codebase and libraries for vulnerabilities, ensuring timely patches.

Our Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system is AlienVault, complemented by PagerDuty for alert management.

Most engineers participate in an on-call rotation to address medium and high-severity security alerts.

Employee devices are managed macOS systems via JAMF and JAMF Protect.

We track issues using Linear and manage compliance through Vanta.

Our Penetration Testing and Vulnerability Disclosure Program is facilitated by HackerOne.

Work Culture:

Our engineering team comprises many former technical co-founders or past interns from prestigious institutions. Engineers at Radar typically fall into one of two categories: those with specialized expertise in a single technology stack or those with multi-stack capabilities at any level. We emphasize a desire to learn and adapt across various technologies rather than expecting expertise in all areas.

We prioritize rapid delivery and customer engagement. While we are dedicated to our vision of comprehensive location infrastructure, we also recognize that customer insights are invaluable. Although our communication platform is central to our operations, collaborating in person at our headquarters accelerates our progress. Weekly planning sessions occur in small groups, utilizing Linear for task management. Each project is overseen by an Engineering lead, an executive, and a Go-to-Market lead, ensuring that engineers are involved in all aspects from conception to customer success.

One of our most impactful practices is 'Walk A Mile,' which encourages team members to empathize with users by experiencing our SDK in real-world scenarios. We believe that a week is a substantial timeframe, and we aim to deliver significant results consistently.

Responsibilities:

  • Oversee the security and compliance framework of our AWS environment (including Security Groups, IAM, VPC, Flow Logs, SSO, Inspector, Security Hub, GuardDuty, KMS, S3, EC2).
  • Respond to customer information security inquiries during sales processes.
  • Contribute significantly to our SOC 2 audit and engage in ongoing security and compliance activities throughout the year.
  • Coordinate our annual third-party penetration test and vulnerability disclosure program, addressing any findings.
  • Participate in weekly compliance meetings to ensure organizational adherence.
  • Manage the complete lifecycle of security alerts and their remediation.
  • Engage with Radar customers and prospects, gather their feedback, and integrate it into your work to enhance their success.

Qualifications:

  • Experience managing AWS environments with Terraform.
  • Background as a security or infrastructure engineer.
  • Interest in engaging with customers and contributing to their success.
  • A strong curiosity about operational mechanics and the determination to tackle challenging problems.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Previous experience as a technical co-founder.

Team Collaboration:

  • Work closely with the CTO, Director of Engineering, Senior Staff Engineer, and various teams including Customer Success, Sales Engineering, and Sales.

Benefits:

  • Competitive salary and equity plan.
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage with full premium payment.
  • 401(k) plan with a generous employer match.
  • Unlimited paid time off.
  • Paid parental leave.
  • Weekly catered meals at our office.
  • Complimentary CitiBike membership for local employees.
  • Monthly fitness reimbursement and wellness programs.

Compensation:

The salary range for this full-time position is competitive, with performance bonuses and incentives available. Additionally, we offer a robust equity plan, providing employees with a meaningful stake in the company's success.

About Radar:

Radar is the leading location infrastructure provider for various products and services. Our geofencing SDKs and maps APIs are utilized by prominent companies to create location-based experiences across millions of devices globally.

Founded in 2016 and headquartered in New York, Radar has successfully raised significant funding from top venture capital firms.

We are an equal opportunity employer, committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace.
