Description For Senior Security Engineer

Mysten Labs is at the forefront of blockchain technology, creating foundational infrastructure to accelerate the adoption of decentralized protocols. As a Senior Security Engineer, you'll play a crucial role in safeguarding the operational and software security of the Sui blockchain, wallet, Move language, and other Mysten systems.

The position offers a competitive salary range of $150,000 - $225,000, along with a comprehensive benefits package including tokens and equity compensation. The role is remote-first, offering flexibility while being part of a world-class team with tremendous growth potential.

As a Security Engineer, you'll be responsible for reviewing and hardening development practices, managing security-related services, and responding to security incidents. You'll work closely with engineers on sensitive components and serve as a key point of contact for audit engagements and bug bounty reports.

The ideal candidate should have strong experience with containerization, cloud platforms, and systems programming languages, particularly Rust. You'll be joining a company backed by top Silicon Valley venture funds, having raised a $300M Series B round from investors like Jump Crypto, Andreessen Horowitz, and Binance Labs.

This role offers an exciting opportunity to shape the security infrastructure of a leading blockchain company while working with cutting-edge technology. The position combines technical challenges with the opportunity to influence security practices across the organization, making it perfect for security professionals who want to make a significant impact in the Web3 space.
