Security Engineer

Our Security Engineer opening rewards depth over breadth: pick SAML, go deep, and let DE Shaw handle the rest of the stack. Earn $65,000 - $91,000 as a Security Engineer, take ownership of IDS/IPS from day one, and build your career with a collaborative team.

• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to a strong code-review culture
• Investigate, diagnose, and fix bugs reported by users and monitoring tools
• Map data flow across DE Shaw's Prioritization services and spot the leaks
• Spike a SAML proof of concept fast when DE Shaw needs a yes-or-no answer
• Reverse-engineer the unpretentious Digital Forensics format DE Shaw inherited and never documented

• Sharp written and verbal communication, tested under scrutiny
• Cross-functional ease, from Prioritization engineers to Growth Mindset marketers
• A collaborator's reflex to share credit and absorb blame
• Comfort presenting to a KS-wide audience without a script

We started DE Shaw in an Overland Park garage because the technology status quo deserved a fun-loving reckoning. Curiosity outranks credentials on this technology team, so bring questions, not just answers.

You get $65,000 - $91,000, a robust benefits suite, and hands-on mentorship aimed at making you a stronger technology professional.

Stamped current this morning, the full-time opportunity awaits your application.
