The Opportunity
We are seeking a full time Security Engineer with deep expertise in Application Security, Identity & Access Management, and Confidential Computing to strengthen the security of our Bitcoin-backed loan platform. Security is fundamental to protecting our customers and business, and this role will drive both the tactical improvements and long-term strategy for securing our applications and authentication systems.
This is a hands-on engineering role with direct impact on product security, infrastructure security, and customer trust.
About the Role
Application Security:
- Lead secure design and code reviews across engineering teams.
- Automate vulnerability detection (SAST, SCA, DAST) within CI/CD.
- Conduct threat modeling and risk assessments for new features.
- Partner with engineers to remediate vulnerabilities and improve secure development practices.
Authentication & Identity:
- Own the roadmap for authentication and identity across customer and internal applications.
- Enhance existing Cognito-based identity architecture with stronger, phishing-resistant MFA solutions (e.g., WebAuthn, passkeys, hardware tokens).
- Collaborate with Product to align usability, compliance, and security in authentication flows.
- Define secure approaches to session management, device trust, and account recovery.
- Design enclave-based architectures to isolate and protect sensitive workloads.
- Integrate Nitro Enclaves with KMS and secure APIs.
- Migrate high-value operations (e.g., cryptographic and financial processes) into enclave environments.
- Ensure compliance, auditability, and resilience of enclave workloads.
Additional Security Domains:
- Harden AWS services (Lambda, API Gateway, SQS, SNS) with least-privilege IAM and secure key management.
- Improve Kubernetes security posture (RBAC, pod security, image scanning, runtime monitoring).
- Deploy and operate a SIEM framework; develop detection rules, dashboards, and incident playbooks.
- Support compliance initiatives (SOC 2, ISO 27001) with security controls and documentation.
What You Bring to Ledn:
- 10 years minimum of proven experience in Application Security with a focus on web and cloud-native applications.
- Expertise with AWS security best practices, particularly in serverless architectures.
- Hands-on experience with AWS Nitro Enclaves for confidential computing.
- Deep understanding of authentication and authorization standards (OAuth2, OIDC, WebAuthn, FIDO2).
- Practical experience with Cognito / Auth0 (MFA, custom flows, secure session handling).
- Background in SIEM design and log correlation across cloud and application layers.
- Familiarity with Kubernetes security (RBAC, pod security, admission controls, image scanning).
- Experience with Secure Code Review.
- Understanding of software supply chain.
- Deep understanding of Linux internals.
- Remediate vulnerabilities identified in the penetration test report.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills, able to influence engineering and product teams.
Nice to Haves:
- Familiarity with Bitcoin custody and key management practices.
- Knowledge of Infrastructure as Code security (Terraform, AWS CDK).
- Prior work on user-facing security features such as passwordless authentication, recovery flows, or device trust.
Culture Fit:
We’re looking for more than just operational excellence — we want a leader who thrives in the startup or tech environment and embodies our values. The ideal candidate will:
- Have a passion for progress by being adaptable and resilient, and is comfortable navigating ambiguity in a high-growth, fast-paced environment.
- Have a builder’s mindset, excited to create, iterate, and scale IS practices.
- Be a collaborative partner, able to influence across functions and cultures with empathy and clarity.
- Demonstrate integrity and accountability, especially in managing confidential information across diverse legal and cultural contexts.
- Have worked in a remote environment before.
A Taste of What We Provide:
- As one of the world’s leading digital asset companies, we provide tremendous growth opportunities.
- Comprehensive, best-in-class total rewards package that starts on your first day
