Full Job Description
đź“‹ Description
- • Own and harden the corporate and production infrastructure security posture for Matter Labs, focusing on identity, endpoint, detection-and-response, cloud, and CI/CD security.
- • Design and enforce least-privilege access policies and phishing-resistant MFA across the entire organization, ensuring secure configuration of identity and collaboration platforms.
- • Build, tune, and maintain security detections using a modern SIEM and SOAR platform; onboard new log sources and automate response playbooks to reduce mean-time-to-detect and mean-time-to-respond.
- • Secure the cloud infrastructure including IAM, network controls, workload identity, and organization-level guardrails across multi-cloud environments.
- • Manage endpoint security for a macOS-dominant fleet: configure MDM, enforce baseline hardening standards, tune EDR, and ensure telemetry is effective without degrading engineer productivity.
- • Lead end-to-end security incident investigations including containment, forensic analysis, root cause determination, remediation, and post-mortem documentation to improve future defenses.
- • Conduct threat modeling and architecture reviews for new internal systems and infrastructure changes, translating findings into prioritized, actionable engineering work.
- • Partner with DevOps, IT Ops, Protocol Security, and Product Engineering to embed security as a default property of operations, not a checkpoint.
- • Review Infrastructure as Code for security regressions, implement guardrails, and collaborate on secrets management and supply-chain controls.
- • Maintain and improve detection-as-code pipelines using Git-based rule management, CI validation, and purple-team testing to ensure detection reliability and scalability.
- • Drive secure configuration of third-party applications, implement data loss prevention (DLP), and enforce context-aware access controls across the organization.
- • Participate in on-call rotations for security incidents and ensure runbooks are continuously updated based on real-world events and lessons learned.
- • Communicate security risks clearly and constructively to both engineering and non-engineering stakeholders, influencing outcomes without direct authority over all systems.
- • Maintain alignment with compliance frameworks such as SOC 2 and ISO 27001 by translating control requirements into practical engineering implementations and supporting audit readiness.
🎯 Requirements
- • 5+ years of hands-on infrastructure or detection-and-response security experience.
- • Production experience securing a cloud-based identity and collaboration platform at scale, including specific implementation of access policies, third-party app governance, and incident response.
- • Hands-on experience with a modern SIEM and SOAR platform for writing detections, onboarding logs, building playbooks, and reducing false positives.
- • Strong cloud security background including IAM, network controls, workload identity, and organization-level guardrails.
- • Practical experience securing a macOS-dominant endpoint fleet with MDM, endpoint hardening, and EDR tuning.
- • Real incident response experience, including leading investigations to conclusion and being on-call for security incidents.
🏖️ Benefits
- • Remote-first work model with flexibility to work wherever most effective; optional travel to team or industry events.
- • Freedom & ownership culture with no time tracking or bureaucracy — only results matter.
- • Opportunity to secure open-source, decentralized infrastructure powering ZKsync and a meaningful chunk of value on Ethereum L2.
- • Work within a lean, high-leverage security team where you own domains end-to-end rather than narrow slices.
- • Exposure to cutting-edge zero-knowledge cryptography and blockchain infrastructure.
- • Access to the company’s Team Handbook for insight into culture and operational philosophy.
