## Description

## Product Security Engineer II

Flexport is looking for Product Security Engineers to help establish itself as the most trusted company in the global trade ecosystem. As a Product Security Engineer, you'll develop a deep understanding of product development and strategy, and will be able to quickly identify and communicate security risks to diverse audiences while offering alternative solutions.

### Responsibilities

- Strategy & foundations:

- Build guardrails and AI-accelerated patterns that make secure-by-default the path of least resistance for developers.

- Build and maintain security tooling and automation that scales product security.

- Respond to emerging threats.

- Design-time & review:

- Contribute to threat modeling, design reviews, and code reviews with pragmatic guidance that balances risk against velocity.

- Partner with engineering to security-review and test new features and services as they're built.

- Vulnerability management:

- Triage, reproduce, and validate incoming bug bounty submissions and internal security reports.

- Cut through SAST, secrets, and vulnerability scanner noise to prioritize real issues and guide developers to effective fixes.

- Partner with development teams to drive remediation and track issues through closure.

- Developer enablement:

- Write clear, actionable security patterns that let developers ship fast and stay secure.

- Write and maintain runbooks, developer guidelines, and security documentation that scale the team's practices.

- Stay current on web and cloud security trends and bring new findings into product discussions.

### Requirements

- 2–5 years of experience in product/application security or software development with a security focus.

- Strong grasp of web application security principles and common attack vectors (e.g., OWASP Top 10).

- Proficiency with application testing tools such as Burp Suite, OWASP ZAP, or browser developer tools.

- Working knowledge of at least one modern programming language (e.g., Ruby, Java/Kotlin, TypeScript/JavaScript, Python).

- Working knowledge of at least one major cloud provider (AWS, GCP, Azure).

- Hands-on experience with SAST tools (Cycode, Semgrep, Snyk, or similar).

- Experience improving developer experience (DevEx) security without slowing teams down.

- Clear, constructive communicator on technical risk - in writing, in code review, and in conversation.

- Collaborative by default: you partner with developers, SREs, and security peers rather than handing down mandates.

- Comfortable with security on-call rotation and picking up work across security disciplines when needed.

### Nice to Have

- Hands-on experience with bug bounty platforms.

- Experience with cloud infrastructure security (AWS, GCP, Azure) and container technologies.

- Participation in CTF events or open-source security projects.

- Familiarity with threat modeling frameworks and secure SDLC best practices.

- Interest in contributing to internal developer security training programs.

### Benefits

- An opportunity to contribute to one of the fastest-growing companies, where you'll have the chance to create a global impact while being a part of a thriving multinational environment.

- Daily catered lunches incl. vegetarian options, breakfast, snacks and soft drinks available in our office on daily basis.

- Commute expenses: Flexport will cover home-office commuting costs for employees living outside of Amsterdam.

- 25 working days as vacation days based on full time employment.

- Health insurance: Flexport offers a collective health insurance plan including a basic package and any available additional packages. Your monthly premium is fully paid by Flexport.

- A defined pension contribution scheme.

- Equity program: every team member becomes a shareholder, aligning our success with yours. As a private company in a multi-trillion dollar industry, you have a direct stake in our collective growth and success.

- Employee Assistance Program through Aetna Resources for Living: Flexport provides an employer-sponsored program at no cost to you and your household members.

- Parental leave benefit: Flexport is here to support you and your families in one of the most important times in life – the birth of a child! Our parental leave program allows both mothers and partners to take time off from work for pregnancy, childbirth, and to bond with your new child.
