Senior Security Engineer (Infrastructure & Identity Security) id-6658
PagerDuty is seeking a Senior Security Engineer (Infrastructure & Identity Security) to join our diverse, customer-focused team! As a Senior Security Engineer, you will be a key technical leader driving security initiatives across PagerDuty's SaaS offerings, with deep expertise in Identity and Access Management. While you'll spearhead our IAM modernization efforts and implement robust authentication patterns, you'll also be instrumental in maintaining our overall security posture through architecture reviews, threat modeling, and automated security solutions. We're looking for a security generalist who excels in IAM - someone who can tackle diverse security challenges across our infrastructure while bringing specialized knowledge in identity and access patterns. Since we own and operate what we build, you'll collaborate with 30+ engineering teams to implement secure, scalable solutions that enhance security while maintaining developer productivity. This is an exciting opportunity to not only revolutionize our IAM strategy but also contribute to the broader security landscape of our SaaS platform.
