  • Collaborate with cybersecurity experts to understand their requirements and translate them into scalable technical solutions.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to build end-to-end cyber defense solutions.
  • Deliver high-quality code, conduct code reviews, identify areas for improvement, and mentor junior security engineers.

About the Team

Our mission is to protect, defend, and secure Uber's products, infrastructure, and data by building highly available, scalable, and extensible security platforms and services. We are focused on proactively identifying and remediating security risks as well as swiftly detecting and mitigating security incidents.
