To help Meta secure its millions of technology assets, we're seeking a Security Engineer with software development skills to help us build and improve a system that measures the security risk of different assets around the world. This system, called Security Impact Rating (SIR), helps prioritize security efforts by identifying which assets pose the greatest potential risk. If building scalable security solutions to help protect the data of billions of users sounds exciting, this might be the role for you.

Responsibilities

Rank different types of technology assets based on their security risks
Identify and collect security signals (data points) that indicate the risk level of each asset
Design algorithms that calculate a security risk score for assets based on these signals and their relationships
Create code to implement these algorithms and integrate them into the company’s security infrastructure
Validate and test the accuracy of the risk scores through manual review and automated testing
Collaborate with other engineers, security analysts, and stakeholders to review designs, share progress, and communicate results
Monitor the system after launch to ensure it continues to provide accurate and useful risk ratings, and make improvements as needed
Author clear technical documentation

Experience designing and implementing algorithms that process complex data
Familiarity with security fundamentals such as access control, data sensitivity, data classification methodology, and risk assessment
Problem-solving skills and attention to detail
Extensive knowledge of attacker tactics, techniques, and procedures
Proficiency in coding with experience in languages such as Python, C/C++, Go, or equivalent
Experience collaborating with technical and non-technical stakeholders
Ability to rapidly prototype and iterate on security solutions
