Role Description We are seeking a scrappy, high-ownership Staff Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to join our lean, fast-moving SRE team. This is a security-focused engineering role rather than a policy or audit one. You'll write code, build automation, integrate scanners into CI/CD, ship Terraform modules the rest of the team can adopt, and drive Dependabot triage with engineering teams. Together, you'll define what "secure by default" actually looks like in our GCP environment and GitHub organization, then make it operational. What You'll Build - Cloud Security Posture Management - Assess and harden Stord's GCP footprint (GKE, IAM, Cloud Armor), and codify the baseline in Terraform and policy-as-code where it makes sense. - Build continuous posture monitoring against that baseline, with a published gap list and remediation schedule. - Drive the evaluation, integration, and rollout of new security tooling as the program matures. - Vulnerability and Dependency Management - Establish and automate the vulnerability and dependency remediation workflow across engineering teams. - Own Dependabot configuration and triage workflows across our GitHub organization. - Build supply-chain controls into CI/CD. - Wire container image scanning and DAST/network scanning programs into the same workflow. - Security Solutions Engineering - Build security capabilities that the broader SRE team can run as part of their normal operating model. - Ship documentation, runbooks, and self-service tooling that make your designs portable to the rest of the team. - Set the engineering bar for security work inside SRE. - Partner cross-functionally with engineering teams on app security questions. Qualifications - Deep GCP and GKE security experience. - Dependabot and secret scanning at scale. - CI/CD supply chain hardening. - Cloud security posture management in practice. - Infrastructure-as-code and automation fluency. - Systems-level technical fluency. - Track record of designing for operability. Required Soft Skills - Ownership & Accountability. - Strong Communication. - Collaborative Approach. - Production Mindset. - Learning Agility. - Directed AI-Assisted Development. Strongly Preferred - Container and image scanning. - DAST and network scanning programs. - Cloudflare edge security. - Detection engineering on GCP. Nice to Have - Prior experience standing up a security program inside an SRE or platform team. - Familiarity with the current supply-chain threat landscape and recent CISA guidance. - Contributions to open-source security tooling or published security research. What Success Looks Like - 30 days: You've ramped on Stord's GCP footprint, GitHub configuration, and existing security tooling. - 90 days: The vulnerability and dependency remediation workflow is live with at least one engineering team as a pilot. - 6–12 months: The remediation workflow is rolled out across engineering.
