ABOUT THE JOB:
There's no such thing as a "safe system" - only safer systems. Our Security team
works to create and maintain the safest operating environment for Google's users
and developers. As a Security Engineer, you help protect network boundaries,
keep computer systems and network devices hardened against attacks and provide
security services to protect highly sensitive data like passwords and customer
information. Security Engineers work directly with network equipment and
actively monitor our systems for attacks and intrusions. You also work with
software engineers to proactively identify and fix security flaws and
vulnerabilities.
You use your industry experience to own and drive the resolution of complex
security incidents, policy questions and technical security issues.
The Cloud CISO Security Engineering team within the Cloud CISO organization is
responsible for helping ensure every product that Cloud ships is as secure as it
can be and increasing the assurance levels of security in the infrastructure
underlying all our products. This team also focuses on increasing the
capabilities of each product team to develop more secure products by design and
by default, from patterns, tools and frameworks to increasing the skill level of
embedded security leads. As an information security engineer you will help to
ensure that our software and systems are designed and implemented to the highest
security standards. You will perform technical security assessments, code
reviews, and vulnerability testing to highlight risk, helping Google teams and
partners to improve security, and work on a wide variety of software designs and
technology stacks.
