## Description

As a Staff Enterprise Security Engineer at SoFi, you will serve as the subject matter expert for Data Loss Prevention (DLP) while driving engineering across broader enterprise security domains,including email security, endpoint protection, network defense, and phishing simulation.

You will lead end-to-end delivery and architecture for enterprise security capabilities: enterprise zero-trust networks, endpoint security, and SaaS posture management.

Your responsibilities will also include:

- Framing complex security challenges: clarifying security requirements, threat models, failure modes, and success metrics while proposing clear architectural options and tradeoffs.

- Designing for scale and resilience: establishing secure baseline configurations, automating security guardrails, and reducing systemic attack surfaces with minimal enterprise friction.

- Collaborating with internal security teams to establish and maintain threat signaling to ensure that proper visibility and alerting is achieved across tooling.

- Raising cybersecurity standards through design reviews, active mentorship of team members, and establishing enterprise security patterns and best practices.

- Collaborating cross-functionally with IT, Infrastructure, Risk/Compliance, and Engineering teams to deliver secure member outcomes.

To qualify, you will need:

- A Bachelor’s Degree + 3–4 Years of Experience OR Master’s Degree + 2–3 Years of Experience in Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field.

- 3+ years of experience in cybersecurity with a focus on Data Loss Prevention (DLP).

- Hands-on experience with cloud-based DLP solutions (e.g., Zscaler, Proofpoint, Sentra).

- Experience administering and operating core enterprise security tools (EDR, email security gateways, and web proxies).

- Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) solutions such as Terraform, along with scripting languages (Python, Go, or PowerShell) for tooling and automation.

- Experience with incident response, log analysis, threat detection, and digital forensics.

- Experience collaborating with multiple lines of defense for issue analysis, evidence gathering and remediation.

- Proven problem-solving skills with the ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced environment.

- Solid written and verbal communication skills for technical documentation, cross-functional collaboration, and threat modeling.

Nice to have:

- Professional security certifications (e.g., CISSP, CCSP, CISM, or AWS Certified Security Specialty).

- Experience with CI/CD security pipeline automation, SIEM detections, and SOAR playbooks.

- Knowledge of financial compliance frameworks and regulatory environments (PCI-DSS, SOC1/SOC2, SOX, GLBA, NIST CSF, ISO 27001).

The base pay range for this role is listed below. Final base pay offer will be determined based on individual factors such as the candidate’s experience, skills, and location.
