Domain Expertise: Act as the lead subject matter expert for the Kong Cloud Security Operations.
Threat Defense Leadership: Architect and implement next-generation WAF, IDS, and IPS capabilities at the gateway level to protect against OWASP Top 10, zero-day exploits, and sophisticated API abuse.
Multi-Cloud Security: Design and implement "Zero Trust" security models that operate seamlessly across hybrid and multi-cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP, On-prem).
Strategic Roadmap: Partner with Product and Architecture leads to define the multi-year security roadmap for Kong Gateway, balancing the needs of the OSS community with Enterprise requirements.
Incident Resolution: Lead the response to complex, multi-faceted security challenges—from supply chain vulnerabilities in open-source dependencies to high-stakes CVE remediations.
Mentorship & Influence: Champion a "Security-First" culture by mentoring engineers on secure coding practices and influencing the long-term cybersecurity maturity of the entire organization.

8+ years’ experience in Cybersecurity Engineering, with a focus on high-traffic infrastructure or API management.
Extensive experience with Kong Gateway, Nginx, eBPF, or similar technologies.
Cloud-Native & Multi-Cloud: Expert-level knowledge of multi-cloud solution design, specifically securing traffic across disparate cloud providers and Kubernetes environments.
Security Domain Specialist: Proven track record in designing/deploying WAF, IDS, and IPS systems at scale, with an understanding of signature-based vs. ML-based detection.
Programming Proficiency:Python, Go or Rust
Open Source Contributor: Experience contributing to or maintaining open-source security projects is a significant asset.
Design Excellence: Ability to produce high-quality, high-performance security designs that do not compromise the "millisecond-latency" promise of the gateway.
