Remote flexibility

Undisclosed

The listing is advertised as remote but does not state which countries or regions candidates may work from.

Why this role is Undisclosed

We only label a role Work from anywhere, Region restricted or Work from home when the employer's own wording says so. We checked this advert under our current rules and found no country or region eligibility requirement in it. We don't guess, so it stays Undisclosed until the employer publishes enough location information. Here is exactly what the advert left out.

  • Countries you can work from: Not stated. The advert only gives "Remote", which names no country you must live in.
  • Whether the work is remote: Confirmed by the employer: "We support a flexible workplace โ€“ work from home, come into an office, or both."
  • Working hours: Not stated. No timezone overlap or set hours are mentioned, so assume nothing either way.

Worth a look all the same. Missing wording is usually a rushed job posting rather than a closed door, so ask where you can be based in your first message, before you write a tailored application.

What the employer says

  • Source listing states candidate location: "Remote"

What Nomaders makes of it

  • No residency or region requirement found in the job description
  • Check with the employer before assuming you can work from abroad

The quotes above are the employer's own words; the reading is ours. Always check the original listing and employment terms before working from another country.

Before you apply

Questions worth asking: Nomaders interpretation

  • The advert does not say whether this is employment or a contractor arrangement. Ask, as it affects tax and benefits.

Our Ethos

We believe in an open and flat structure. You will be able to grow into the role that most aligns with your goals. Our team members at all levels have the freedom to explore ideas and impact the roadmap and vision of our company.

About the Team

Security Engineering is a small team that answers one question: was it built right? We run our own AI-driven red team against Rain's code and cloud, gate pull requests before they merge, and write the baselines that say how every system should be configured. Our blockchain work is covered. This role owns everything else: the backend services, APIs, cloud, and edge that move real money for real customers.

We work closely with Security Operations: we give them high-quality findings to coordinate fixes for, and clear configuration rules they can build detections on.

About the Team

Security Engineering makes sure Rain is built right. We run our own AI-driven red team against our code and cloud, gate pull requests before they merge, and set the baselines for how every system is configured. This role owns everything outside blockchain: the backend services, APIs, cloud, and edge that move real money. We give Security Operations high-quality findings to coordinate fixes for, and clear configuration rules to build detections on.

About the Role

You'll be Rain's application security expert and the quality bar for every non-chain finding we produce. The calls are yours: what's real, how bad it is, and what has to be fixed before launch. You'll hold the line with engineers when it matters, and make the case so they agree, not just comply.

What You'll Do

Review red team findings before they reach engineers: reproduce them, cut false positives, set severity, and write tickets clear enough to fix without a meeting. Improve the scoring that grades them

Harden our backend services and APIs, especially the money-moving paths. You'll often write the fix yourself

Own edge defenses: DDoS protection, rate limiting, WAF rules, and abuse controls

Write secure configuration baselines for our cloud, code, and SaaS, and turn them into automated checks

Grow our PR security gate so more bugs are blocked before merge

Own attack surface coverage, and run architecture reviews on new and high-risk systems

Find, test, and pick the best security tools, whether we buy, adopt, or build

What We're Looking For

4+ years in application security, product security, or security-minded backend engineering

You've owned security decisions. You can tell a senior engineer their design needs to change and keep a good working relationship

You can read an unfamiliar codebase (TypeScript/Node.js) and find the bug that matters, and you know a scary-sounding finding from a real one
