The ideal candidate will have demonstrated experience in secure application development, IT and information security, and a deep understanding of cloud environments and their inherent challenges.

  • Manage and maintain security across our applications and infrastructure, including Office365, email gateways, firewalls, and anti-malware systems.

  • Handle internal and external security escalations. 
  • Advocate for and drive the adoption of information security and secure practices throughout FirstConnect, including the Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SSDLC).
  • Perform comprehensive architecture and security reviews on complex Cloud SAAS solutions and software.
  • Participate in and support application security reviews and threat modelling, including static and dynamic code analysis.
  • Identify and map attack surfaces, assess threats, and design and execute penetration tests against our products and infrastructure.
  • Work with developers to ensure security principles are incorporated into engineering design and deployments.
  • Develop mitigation strategies and build tools to automate and integrate security testing, compliance, and remediate vulnerabilities.

Qualifications:

  • Strong knowledge of Windows, Macs and Linux security, Single Sign-On (SSO), and network security protocols (TCP/IP, HTTPS).
  • Hands-on experience with security systems, including firewalls, intrusion detection systems (IDS), anti-virus software, and log management.
  • Proven expertise in the detection, exploitation, and mitigation of common web application security vulnerabilities (e.g., OWASP Top 10).
  • Experience conducting security-focused code reviews of JavaScript (Node, React) codebases.
  • Strong development or scripting experience, with proficiency in JavaScript being essential.
  • Solid knowledge of at least one modern cloud environment (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) and its security controls.
  • In-depth knowledge of web security standards and authentication infrastructure (SAML, OAuth, JWT).
  • Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and troubleshooting skills.

Preferred Qualifications: 

  • Previous startup experience. 
  • Work experience in the insurtech or fintech sectors.
  • Industry certifications such as CISSP, CISM, OSCP, CEH, or GIAC.
  • Familiarity with compliance and regulatory programs such as ISO 27001, NIST, and SOC.
