Job Description
Security Engineer
MRI Technologies
Role Description MRI Technologies has an exciting opportunity for a Security Engineer on the NASA Mission Cloud (NMC) team, supporting the Mission Enabling Services Contract (MESC). In this role, you will own the security tooling, harden the cloud infrastructure, and drive vulnerability remediation at scale across a production GCP platform running 12+ GKE clusters across ITAR, Moderate, and Low impact boundaries. You will work alongside cloud engineers, compliance specialists, and NASA stakeholders, building detection coverage, enforcing least-privilege access, and integrating security controls into the CI/CD pipelines that keep the platform moving. You should be comfortable writing code: whether it is Python automation for CVE triage, Go tooling for policy enforcement, or shell scripting for security checks in CI pipelines, this role expects you to build things, not just configure them. A typical day might include: - Triaging new CVEs identified across container images. - Reviewing overnight alerts from the security monitoring stack. - Writing Python automation to streamline a vulnerability remediation workflow. - Integrating a new security check into a GitLab CI/CD pipeline. - Conducting an IAM drift analysis across cloud resources. - Evaluating a new supply-chain security tool like Chainguard or Sigstore. - Investigating an anomaly flagged by the SIEM. The work is hands-on, engineering-first, and operating at a scale where your improvements have immediate, measurable impact on systems that carry NASA's mission workloads. Qualifications - Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, or equivalent. - 4 or more years of relevant security engineering experience. - Experience with cloud security engineering on GCP or an equivalent cloud platform (AWS or Azure). - Hands-on experience with container security, Kubernetes hardening, and image vulnerability scanning. - Working knowledge of IAM principles and least-privilege enforcement at scale. - Experience with security monitoring, SIEM tools, and alert triage. - Familiarity with CVE management and vulnerability remediation workflows. - Comfortable working in Linux environments and with CLI-based tooling. - Working proficiency in at least one modern programming language (Python, Go, JavaScript, or Rust) sufficient to build security tooling, automation scripts, and CI/CD integrations. - Ability to excel in a remote work environment. Requirements - Experience with Chainguard, Sigstore, or similar supply chain security tooling. - GCP Security Command Center, Chronicle, or Google Cloud Armor experience. - GitLab CI/CD pipeline security integration experience. - NIST SP 800-53 or FedRAMP control implementation experience. - Security+ or equivalent certification. - Prior NASA or federal government security engineering experience. Benefits - Comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, vision, company-paid life and disability insurance. - Paid time off and 401(k). - Flexible work schedule. - Strong career development opportunities working alongside NASA's mission teams.
