About the Role As a Security Engineer on Remitly's Corporate Security team, you will operate and improve the controls securing our workforce, devices, SaaS and core business applications.

You will own your work independently, know when to seek help and build things that are logical, scalable and maintainable.
Harden SaaS & infrastructure → configure and maintain security controls across internal infrastructure and SaaS (Google Workspace, Okta, Salesforce, Slack, Workday).
Operate zero-trust controls → support least-privilege IAM enforcement across our stack. Validate policy compliance and escalate gaps with full risk context.
Build automation → write tooling that improves risk detection, expedites response, or eliminates manual steps. Solutions should be logical, scalable and maintainable → not one-off scripts.
Secure endpoints & devices → manage and improve MDM policies (Kandji, FleetDM), enforce device trust posture, support OS hardening baselines.
Participate in reviews → join threat models, vendor security assessments and product design reviews. Provide constructive feedback via thorough reviews. Grow toward running these independently.
Strengthen email & app controls → maintain email defense configurations, support OAuth app review workflows, flag and remediate risky integrations before they become incidents.
Drive operational improvements → improve how systems are deployed, tested, logged and monitored. Refactor where it helps. Participate in the team oncall rotation. Resolve root causes, not just symptoms.
This creates a consistent, meaningful overlap that supports team norms and business needs.

Hands-on with any of: Okta, Google Workspace admin, MDM, SIEM, endpoint security, SASE/ZTNA.
Experience w/ AWS or GCP → you've been in a console, you've read a CloudTrail log.
Familiarity with GitHub, CI/CD pipelines, or Kubernetes.
Exposure to DLP, insider threat tooling, or SaaS posture management platforms (e.g. Obsidian, Trelica).
You've written a runbook someone else actually used.
3+ years in security or systems engineering, with 1+ year focused in a relevant sub-domain (identity, endpoint, SaaS security, cloud, etc.) in a cloud-first environment.
Proficiency in a programming language (Python preferred
willing to learn others).

The starting base salary range for this position is typically $168,000-$210,000.
