What You'll Do
You’ll play a central role in strengthening the security of a widely used decentralized network by designing and implementing secure architectures. Your work will involve building internal security tools and deploying controls across systems to harden defenses. You'll contribute directly to public-facing components like the Chainlink core node by developing and integrating new security capabilities.
A key part of your role is ensuring security is embedded early in product development, working closely with engineering teams on upcoming initiatives. You’ll also help establish processes that deter attacks and improve detection, while contributing to the organization’s long-term security strategy.
