Enterprise Security Engineer

What We Do Gecko Robotics is helping the world’s most important organizations ensure the availability, reliability, and sustainability of critical infrastructure. Gecko's complete and connected solutions combine wall-climbing robots, industry-leading sensors, and an AI-powered data platform to provide customers with a unique window into the current and future health of their physical assets. This enables real-time decision making to increase the efficiency and safety of operations, promote mission readiness, and protect the environment and civilization from the effects of infrastructure failure.

Role at a Glance Gecko is seeking an Enterprise Security Engineer to help build and operate the shared systems that protect our people, devices, applications, and sensitive data.

You will sit within Info Sec Engineering and partner closely with IT Engineering. Your primary focus will be workforce endpoint and device security, identity security, SaaS and OAuth governance, enterprise detections, and the protection of regulated data.

Our goal is to eliminate friction: solve shared security and technology problems so everyone else can focus on their unique roles. Security and compliance should create trustworthy paths for the company to move faster and remain in compliance, not unnecessary barriers that teams must work around.

Responsible use of AI tools is an important example. Gecko should be able to benefit fully from emerging technology without misusing sensitive data or creating unacceptable security, privacy, contractual, or compliance risk. This role will help establish the systems, guardrails, and guidance that make responsible adoption possible.

This role supports U.S. Government programs. Its essential functions require regular access to export-controlled technical data, U.S. Government information systems, and customer facilities subject to U.S.

-person access requirements. To satisfy the U.S. Government contractual and customer-access requirements applicable to this role, the selected candidate must qualify as a “U.S. person,” that is, a U.S. citizen or national, lawful permanent resident, or other protected individual, including a refugee or asylee, as defined by 8 U.S.C. § 1324b(a)(3). This requirement applies only to roles with these access needs and is not a general condition of employment at Gecko Robotics or its affiliates.

What You Will Do Build, configure, and operate endpoint-management, device-compliance, browser-security, and endpoint detection and response controls; harden workforce devices and shared enterprise systems.

Own and improve identity security—including Okta policies, MFA, Conditional Access, and lifecycle controls—and establish practical governance for SaaS applications, OAuth access, browser extensions, AI tools, and other third-party technology.

Create clear, usable paths that let employees adopt approved AI tooling and other technology while protecting regulated and sensitive data and meeting security, privacy, contractual, and compliance obligations.

Translate requirements into effective configurations and workflows, partnering closely with IT Engineering to solve shared problems, reduce recurring friction, and make controls easy to operate.

Build and tune enterprise detections; evaluate alerts and control gaps; lead corporate-side incident response; make proportionate risk decisions and coordinate remediation with the teams that own the affected systems.

Partner with Product Security, Cloud Infrastructure, IT, and Facilities when enterprise-security concerns intersect with applications, cloud services, engineering systems, or physical security.

Establish and maintain governance for the adoption and use of AI tools and other rapidly emerging workplace technologies,…
