Security Engineer (L4), Application Security Reviews & Assessments

At Netflix, we do one thing – entertainment – and we aim to do it really well at scale. We have a strong engineering organization that enables us to achieve these business objectives and a unique culture that guides us. This also means that our security team needs to operate differently than a traditional security team. We do not operate with traditional gating mechanisms but instead focus on enabling our customers. We provide them with clear, opinionated security guidance and usable, scalable, secure by default offerings to make pragmatic risk decisions for Netflix.

The Application Security teams at Netflix are responsible for securing the software footprint that we create to run the Netflix product, the Netflix studio, and the business. We have previously invested in the idea of strategic security partnerships and engineering investments to scale our Application Security program. As the Netflix business and engineering workforce has grown, our software footprint has also grown and become more heterogeneous. We are now complementing our security partnerships and engineering investments with increased investments to serve the Appsec Professional Services charter (services like bug bounty, pentesting, product security incident response, threat modeling, security reviews, and developer security education).

We are hiring an Application Security Engineer for the Appsec Reviews and Assessments team. In this role, you will work closely with engineering teams that build software to support the Netflix product, studio, games and enterprise to provide critical Appsec services. We are looking for folks who are excited about pragmatic risk, continuous operational improvement and customer-centric security experiences.

Netflix allows the security team to approach security differently. We’ve shaped our security principles to align with our culture of “Freedom and Responsibility” and “Context not Control.” Employees have tremendous freedom in their work, along with the corresponding responsibility and the accountability to do the right thing for Netflix.

We are an equal opportunity employer and celebrate diversity, recognizing that diversity of thought and background builds stronger teams. We approach diversity and inclusion seriously and thoughtfully. We do not discriminate based on race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.

Our compensation structure consists solely of an annual salary; we do not have bonuses. You choose each year how much of your compensation you want in salary versus stock options. To determine your personal top of market compensation, we rely on market indicators and consider your specific job family, background, skills, and experience to determine your compensation in the market range. The range for this role is $100,000 – $700,000..
