Overview
Do you want to be part of the team enabling software development teams to do their best work, with the world’s most elegant, secure, reliable, and powerful developer platform?
GitHub is changing the way the world builds software. To accomplish this, we need to ensure employees' use of GitHub’s internal systems is secure. On the Enterprise Security team, we're focused on maintaining conditional access, SaaS security, and how Hubbers access critical tooling. As a Security Engineer, you will work closely with a distributed, diverse, and passionate team of engineers to ensure GitHub remains a secure home for 100M+ developers.
The Enterprise Security team is a fully remote team. We expect you to have the ability to communicate complex technical concepts and be able to create working relationships with coworkers in locations around the globe both synchronously and asynchronously.
We are looking for creative problem solvers and diverse thinkers - people who care about culture as well as customers and features. We believe that how we do things is as important as what we do. Big vision, a common purpose, passion for quality, curiosity, dedication, and investment in fun and collaboration are what lead to great results.
Responsibilities
Required Qualifications:
GitHub is the world’s leading AI-powered developer platform with 100 million developers and counting. We’re also home to the biggest open-source community on earth (and 99% of the world’s software has open-source code in its DNA). Many of the apps and programs you use every day are built on GitHub.
Our teams are dreamers, doers, and pioneers, leading the way in AI, driving humanitarian efforts around the globe, and even sending open source to Mars (and beyond!). At GitHub, our goal is to create the space you need to do your best work. We’re remote-first and offer competitive pay, generous learning and growth opportunities, and excellent benefits to support you, wherever you are—because we know that people flourish when they can work on their own terms.
Join us, and let’s change the world, together.
