About The Role:

YipitData is looking for a Product Security Engineer to help build security into the products and services we deliver to customers.

In this role, you will partner closely with Engineering and Product teams throughout the development lifecycle. You will assess new products and technologies, lead threat modeling and security design reviews, identify vulnerabilities, and help teams implement practical fixes before issues reach production.

This is a hands-on role for someone who understands how modern applications are designed and built. You should be comfortable reviewing system architecture, analyzing vulnerabilities, working directly with engineers, and improving the security tools embedded in our development pipelines.

This is a remote-friendly opportunity that can sit in NYC (where our headquarters is located), one of our office hubs, or anywhere else in the US. However, depending upon where the remote work is performed, income could be subject to New York State tax withholding.

The work hours are flexible on this team, but most employees work East Coast hours.

As Our Product Security Engineer, You Will:

Get involved early in new products and features, using threat modeling and security design reviews to find problems before they reach production

Dig into application architecture, APIs, authentication, authorization, data flows, cloud services, and third-party integrations to understand how systems could be attacked

Find and validate vulnerabilities, separate real risk from noise, and help teams prioritize what actually matters

Work alongside engineers to design remediate plans that protect customers without bringing development to a halt
