  • Work with diverse security tools and develop integration points within our product, supporting comprehensive security workflows.
  • Communicate security principles, functionality, and outcomes to non-security stakeholders, helping them understand how the product's security capabilities protect critical assets.
  • Work directly with end users to ensure that Method is meeting operational needs and solving real world problems.

Qualifications
  • Experience working in an infosec organization, with strong familiarity with security workflows, tools, and automation.
  • Proficiency in software development, particularly in automating and expanding security workflows within a product. Experience in Python and Go is preferred.
  • Demonstrated experience working with various security tools, such as networking and penetration testing tools, and integrating these within scalable product solutions.
  • Practical knowledge of advanced security workflows, including vulnerability management, incident response, and threat detection.
  • Ability to effectively communicate security-related features and their impact to non-security stakeholders.
