To do this, we start with our own community by creating an open, inclusive, and diverse organization.
Lyft connects people to transportation to change the way we live and get around our communities. Lyft’s engineering team is growing rapidly, and we are looking for Software Engineers with a passion in Security to help us scale. Come be part of the Security team at Lyft focused on enabling and empowering engineering teams to deliver secure services at scale.
Our drivers and passengers entrust Lyft with their personal information and travel details to get where they're going and expect us to keep that data safe. Lyft's security team leads efforts across the company to ensure our systems are secure and worthy of our users' trust.
The security team designs and builds Lyft's security architecture, consults with other teams as they build and launch new products and features, proactively plans for the unexpected, and responds to incidents that occur. Our work affects the entire company and takes place at all levels of the stack, from infrastructure to web application security, as well as mobile apps, IT, and autonomous vehicles. We try to approach security from a software engineering standpoint. We believe in scaling security through automation and tooling and we ship frequently. Check out our blog posts at https://eng.lyft.com/tagged/security to learn more about some of the things we’ve built.
We're looking for an engineer who's excited about growing and improving security at Lyft by building systems and promoting security throughout the company. You'll play a part in shaping the future of security at Lyft, and your work will have significant impact and visibility.
Responsibilities:
- Architect and build services that improve the security of our systems with an eye towards scalability and avoiding unnecessary friction.
- Evangelize our shared security responsibility model by collaborating with other teams at Lyft to ensure that our services and workflows are secure by default.
- Lead the effort to identify, assess, and prioritize vulnerabilities within the Lyft infrastructure.
- Be customer focused and proactively identify opportunities to improve user experience and vulnerability remediation workflows.
- Share knowledge by giving brown bags, tech talks, and evangelizing appropriate tech and engineering best practices.
- Collaborate cross-functionally to establish high levels of automated testing and evidence collection as well as contribute to the development of tools and automation.

- You're a great communicator, and can advocate for your proposals while also empathizing with your teammates' goals and priorities
- You understand that security work must be prioritized because all teams have finite resources. You have good judgment and a sense of when to compromise and when to hold your ground
