About the Job

  • Identify business-critical risks across Instacart's cloud accounts, identity stack, AI/agent platforms, and product services.
  • Define remediation strategies that scale: prefer guardrails and platform changes over one-off fixes.
  • Build secure-by-default primitives — policy-as-code, paved-road infra modules, identity and access frameworks — that make the safe path the easy path for product teams.
  • Operate the SaaS and internal security platforms that back those guardrails (CSPM, IAM governance, vulnerability management, AMI/image supply chain, secrets, audit) and extend them with internal tooling when off-the-shelf falls short.
  • Lead investigations, root-cause incidents and findings, and drive variant analysis across the codebase to make sure a class of bug is gone — not just one instance.
  • Coach and mentor engineers across security and other functions.

About You

  • 5+ years in security engineering, with depth in at least two of: cloud security (AWS/GCP), identity & access engineering, vulnerability management at scale, or secure infrastructure platform engineering.
  • 3+ years of experience performing code reviews and design reviews.
  • Proficiency in Python or TypeScript sufficient to build and maintain internal services (APIs, scanners, dashboards) — not just glue scripts.
  • Working knowledge of cloud IAM (roles, trust policies, federation, SCPs/org policies) and the attack paths it enables when misconfigured.
  • Hands-on Infrastructure-as-Code experience (Terraform, CloudFormation, or equivalent).
  • Experience driving a remediation program end-to-end: discovery → ownership routing → fix → measurement → prevention.
  • Understanding of SaaS architectures, common risks, and threat models.
  • Experience with Variant Analysis, Root Cause Analysis, or Secure Frameworks.

About You

  • Track record of security research, competitive hacking, or OSS contributions.
  • Track record building internal security platforms that other engineers actually adopt — IAM attack-path analysis, vulnerability management, supply-chain/AMI pipelines, secrets management, GRC automation, or similar.
  • Policy-as-code authoring at organization scope (OPA/Rego, Terraform Sentinel/equivalent) with disciplined test coverage and rollout/grandfathering strategies.
  • Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) at scale — Wiz/Prisma/equivalent, including remediation programs spanning IaC findings and live threat findings (C2, credential abuse), plus running scan infrastructure across CI fleets.
  • Identity governance experience with a modern IGA stack (ConductorOne, Sailpoint, Veza, or equivalent) including just-in-time access, auto-approval policies, and SoD constraints.
  • Experience securing AI/LLM platforms — model gateways, agent frameworks, MCP servers, prompt injection mitigations — or strong appetite to build that practice from a cloud-security foundation.
