Remote (Global) Full-time

Katana Cloud Inventory is hiring a Senior Security Engineer

About the Role

Katana Cloud Inventory is looking for a Senior Security Engineer with a builder's mindset to join our remote-first B2B SaaS company. You will collaborate across Product and Engineering to ship automated guardrails, embed security into the SDLC, and build a lightweight, automated security platform that reduces risk while keeping developers productive.

What You'll Do

  • Enforce cloud and platform guardrails via IaC (e.g., Terraform), admission policies, and CSPM; champion least privilege, network segmentation, and secrets hygiene.
  • Run threat models on new designs; drive secure-coding patterns; implement SAST/DAST/dependency scanning; strengthen supply-chain protections (SBOM, provenance, signing).
  • Own detections for high-risk scenarios; maintain IR runbooks; lead and coach incidents and post-mortems that deliver durable fixes.
  • Orchestrate vulnerability triage, ownership, and remediation; run coordinated disclosure and occasional pentests or bug bounties.
  • Strengthen SSO/MFA, workload identities, and JIT/JEA for privileged operations; reduce long-lived credentials.
  • Classify data and enforce encryption, key management, DLP, and egress controls.
  • Assess vendors and AI tooling for prompt, privacy, and model risks; define safe-use patterns for engineers.
  • Run the Security Champions program; publish clear documentation and how-tos; host knowledge sharing sessions.
  • Map controls to SOC 2 and ISO 27001 and automate evidence collection.

What We're Looking For

  • Broad security fluency across cloud, identity, SaaS, and endpoints.
  • Deep, hands-on strength in at least two areas (e.g., AWS + IAM, or Endpoint/EDR + Detection).
  • Ability to comfortably write and read code; contribute small libraries, CI/CD checks, or Terraform modules.
  • Experience automating security controls and reducing toil.
  • Experience leading through incidents: calm triage, crisp communications, and steady ownership.
  • Ability to convert telemetry and risk into clear, decision-ready narratives for both individual contributors and executives.
  • Experience designing self-serve security experiences (identity patterns, secrets management, paved-road libraries).
  • Ability to influence through clear documentation and programs like Security Champions.

Nice to Have

  • Adopt an AI-first mindset, using LLMs and AI agents where appropriate.
  • Default to audit-ready, automating evidence collection where possible.
  • Collaborate with curiosity, welcome diverse perspectives, mentor generously, and learn fast.

Technical Stack

  • Terraform
  • AWS
  • SAST/DAST tools
  • EDR

Team & Environment

You will join a 100+ person global team. This is a function with strong executive backing, partnering closely with Engineering.

  • Competitive compensation plus equity via our Employee Stock Option Program.
  • 20 business days of PTO plus 3 paid health days annually.
  • Sabbatical after four years.
  • Your birthday off.
  • Home office stipend.
  • SunLife Insurance coverage or wellness allowance.
  • Provided hardware and software.

This is a remote-first role for candidates located in Estonia or Portugal.

Our strength lies in diversity; we are a remote-first company with 100+ people from 25+ nationalities. We are committed to equitable opportunities, fostering belonging, and driving innovation.
