Latacora | Chicago | Full Time | Remote (USA) | Security Engineer
If working on security at a startup is appealing, here's an opportunity to work with a whole group of startups --- in health care, in financial services, in hardware, in transportation, in AI, and even in sports analytics. You'll be a member of a growing security team with multiple practice areas, working with security veterans, talented developers just getting their start in security, and with the engineering teams of a couple dozen startups. We're consultants, in a sense, but unlike any other consulting firm I'm aware of.
Latacora builds security teams for startups. We work exclusively with startups and exclusively over the long term; our clients stick with us for a year or so, during which our whole team works full time on appsec, cloud security and secops, and corpsec. Once we've built out a practice, we help our clients recruit someone full time to keep it running, and transition ourselves out.
This February Latacora is hiring corpsec engineers. Corpsec is an interesting mix of vulnerability research and security operations. It's responsible for endpoint fleet security --- the protection of everyone's laptops and phones --- as well as SSO and email and other company services. Corpsec's portfolio also includes "vendorsec", which answers the questions "is it safe to install this program or use this service", and involves short, targeted vulnerability assessments. Corpsec is the team at Latacora most likely to be doing things in Frida at any point in time.
We try to be super easy to talk to, we hire almost resume-blind and without subjective interviews, and will give you more information than you can retain about what we do and how we hire before you have to answer any questions. I like us! Mail REDACTED_EMAIL to find out more.
