What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Container Ship Security Officer, and why are they important?

To excel as a Container Ship Security Officer, you need a solid understanding of maritime security regulations, risk assessment, and emergency response procedures, often supported by certifications like the International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code. Familiarity with surveillance systems, access control tools, and incident reporting software is typically required. Strong observational skills, decisive problem-solving, and effective communication are crucial soft skills for preventing and responding to threats. These competencies ensure the safety of crew, cargo, and vessel operations in compliance with international maritime security standards.

What are container ship security jobs?

Container ship security jobs involve protecting cargo vessels, their crew, and goods from threats such as piracy, theft, terrorism, and unauthorized access while at sea or in port. Security personnel may be responsible for monitoring ship access points, conducting security patrols, implementing safety protocols, and coordinating with port authorities. These roles are crucial for ensuring the safe transport of valuable goods across international waters and often require specialized training in maritime security procedures.

What is the difference between Container Ship Security vs Cargo Security Officer?

AspectContainer Ship SecurityCargo Security Officer
CertificationsISPS Code, STCWSecurity certifications, sometimes ISPS
Work EnvironmentOnboard ships, port facilitiesPorts, warehouses, transport vehicles
Employer & IndustryShipping lines, maritime security firmsLogistics companies, ports, freight companies
Job FocusShip security, anti-piracy, access controlCargo protection, theft prevention, inspection

Container Ship Security professionals focus on safeguarding ships and ports from piracy and unauthorized access, often working onboard vessels or at port facilities. Cargo Security Officers concentrate on protecting cargo from theft or damage during storage and transport, typically working in ports or warehouses. Both roles require security certifications and are vital in the maritime and logistics industries, but their work environments and specific duties differ.

What are some common challenges faced when working in container ship security, and how can they be managed effectively?

Professionals in container ship security often encounter challenges such as monitoring large, complex cargo areas, coordinating with multinational crews, and responding quickly to potential security breaches or stowaways. Effective management involves strong communication skills, thorough knowledge of international maritime security regulations (like the ISPS Code), and regular security drills. Building good working relationships with port authorities and maintaining up-to-date training helps ensure prompt and coordinated responses to incidents.

Job description

About Us
Dorsia is at the forefront of hospitality-tech innovation, redefining how the world gains access to the most in-demand restaurants, events, and experiences. By fusing cutting-edge technology with the art of luxury hospitality, we empower our members to secure impossible-to-get reservations while providing operators with unprecedented levels of control, visibility, and revenue optimization.
In 2025, we grew revenue 480% and scaled to 400+ venues across 25 destinations, with the launch of our Culture Calendar extending Dorsia beyond restaurants into the world's most sought-after cultural moments.
Backed by $54M in funding from investors including Index Ventures, Invus, and Red Sea Ventures, and strategic partners including MoonPay, Major Food Group, and The Dinex Group - Daniel Boulud, we are entering our most consequential phase of growth and reshaping the global hospitality landscape. We're adding exceptional talent to drive what comes next, and that's where you come in.
About the Role
Dorsia is seeking a Platform Engineer with a deep security expertise to join our core engineering team. You will own the security posture of a platform that serves some of the most discerning and high-profile members in the world. Discretion, trust, and data integrity are core to the product experience we deliver.
The ideal candidate has strong platform experience first and foremost, with security as a genuine depth area. You have built and maintained cloud infrastructure and shipped production systems in an environment of sensitive member data, payment rails, and integrations with high-end operators.
What You'll DoCloud Infrastructure & Platform
  • Architect, design, develop, deploy and maintain high-quality infrastructure solutions for our Typescript and PHP-based applications.
  • Own and evolve Dorsia's cloud infrastructure across environments in alignment with core business needs and continuously improve to meet business needs and manage cloud costs.
  • Maintain secure-by-default configurations across VPCs, IAM policies, ECS/container services, CDN, and DNS.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve complex technical issues, providing innovative solutions to ensure the stability and performance of the platform.
  • Stay up to date with the latest cloud technologies, industry trends, and best practices.
  • Own observability and incident response including logging, alerting, and on-call playbooks across the platform using Datadog and related tools.
  • Collaborate with product managers, designers, and business stakeholders to understand project requirements and translate them into technical specifications.
  • Foster a culture of continuous improvement through coding standards, code reviews, and knowledge sharing via documentation and training.

Security Architecture
  • Define and enforce authentication, authorization, and access control patterns across services - member-facing, operator-facing, and internal.
  • Lead threat modeling for new product features before they ship; embed directly with product engineers to ship security improvements without slowing down velocity.
  • Own secrets management, certificate lifecycle, and key rotation across environments.
  • Build SAST/DAST tooling into the CI/CD workflow.

The Winning Recipe
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field.
  • 6-8 years of major cloud experience (preferably AWS); 1-2 years of hands-on platform or application security engineering.
  • Deep knowledge of container-build best practices (PHP containers are a plus), container orchestration platforms (ECS Fargate is a plus), and build and deployment automation (Github Actions is a plus).
  • Solid understanding of backend systems, APIs, and web service integration.
  • Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to identify and resolve complex technical issues.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams and stakeholders.
  • Relevant knowledge of Cloud/DevOps trends, emerging technologies, and best practices, with a commitment to staying current on the rapidly evolving AI cybersecurity landscape and latest trends.

Strong plus: prior experience with reservation system integrations (ie SevenRooms, Resy, OpenTable), dining payments infrastructure, or luxury/membership consumer apps.
Compensation & Benefits
  • Flexible PTO
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • FSA
  • Commuter benefits
  • Free membership to One Medical
  • Teladoc
  • Talkspace
  • Kindbody
  • 401(k)
  • In-office lunch 3 days a week
  • Employee Dining Credits
  • Salary ranges are based on paying competitively for our size and stage. We determine our pay by considering skills and experience related to the role, location, and ensuring internal equity relative to other Dorsia employees. Typical base salary ranges are:
    • Junior level: $100,000-$160,000
    • Mid level: $150,000-$200,000
    • Senior level: $190,000-$250,000

Workplace Philosophy at Dorsia
At Dorsia, we believe that culture eats strategy. The best ideas in the world mean nothing without the right people around the table and the right chemistry between them. We are, unapologetically, a people-first organization.
In-Person Matters
We're creating once-in-a-lifetime experiences for the most discerning audience in the world. That doesn't happen over Zoom. It happens through collisions: a spark across a desk, a kitchen-side conversation that unlocks a partnership, the energy of ideas felt, not typed. That's why in-office culture is non-negotiable at Dorsia.
Who We Hire
We don't subscribe to check-the-box hiring. We hire for merit and mindset, which naturally creates a team with varied backgrounds. What unites us isn't demographics, it's a shared vision: to build the social operating system for the cultural vanguard.
Lifestyle Hours
We're not a 9-to-5 company. Our lifestyle mirrors our members. Early flights, after-work events, and late-night sprints when the work demands it. But we love what we do, and we definitely love a good party.
High Performance Culture
Working at Dorsia isn't for everyone-and that's the point. Our culture is designed for builders, not passengers. We move fast, set ambitious standards, and expect people to rise to them. If you have the talent and the drive, this will be a ride to remember.
A Final Word
We're building something special. It will take long hours and relentless effort. It's not for everyone. For those with the metabolism, you'll create something that changes how culture is lived. And that's the kind of work worth your life's energy.
