About the Team The Pipedream team operates an integration platform that connects Workday services — and the apps of our external customers — to over 3,000 APIs. We build and maintain public‑facing APIs, code execution environments, a high‑volume event processing pipeline, and other complex services that power the platform. Our work sits at the intersection of scale and connectivity: every integration that runs on Pipedream depends on the reliability, performance, and security of the infrastructure we build. If you enjoy working on systems that thousands of developers rely on every day, and you want to see the direct impact of your contributions, this is a great team to be a part of. About the Role As Pipedream’s first dedicated Security Engineer, you will own platform security end‑to‑end — tooling, process, threat modeling, and audits — while working hands‑on in the codebase to find and fix vulnerabilities yourself. This is a deeply technical individual contributor role with broad scope. You will build a security function from scratch at a platform serving thousands of developers. In this role, you will be responsible for: Finding and patching vulnerabilities directly in code and dependencies. Pipedream runs a polyglot stack — TypeScript, Rust, Kotlin, Ruby, and more — so you will read and fix code across all of it. Building and maintaining the platform’s threat model, and partnering with Product and Engineering to ship new features securely without slowing them down. Securing cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP) and the third‑party vendor surface (Redis, Datadog, and others). Leading incident response for critical security issues. Owning SOC 2, HIPAA, penetration tests, and other compliance work end‑to‑end. Partnering with Workday’s security team to translate broader policy into something that fits Pipedream’s stack and operations.

Comfortable identifying and mitigating security risks in application design and code, and experience with security controls such as encryption and authentication. Proficiency in securing cloud infrastructure, with the ability to design, manage, and maintain cloud‑based environments (AWS, GCP) at scale. Understand how to effectively secure and monitor cloud services in a production setting. Experience with security incident response, including a systematic approach to managing the aftermath of security breaches or attacks. Know how to identify and analyze security incidents, coordinate response activities, and develop strategies to prevent future incidents. Comfort reading and patching code across multiple languages—quickly pick up new languages and operate effectively across a polyglot codebase. A history of building security programs that engineering teams actually adopt — not just policies on paper. Partner with engineers to ship secure code and balance priorities across highly visible projects involving multiple teams.
