Job summary

DAT Freight & Analytics is seeking a Security Architect/Engineer to own vulnerability remediation, participate in incident response, and drive secure design reviews across engineering teams.

The role emphasizes hands-on cloud security with AWS, vulnerability management, and building scalable security tooling. A hybrid work environment and competitive package are offered in Washington state.

Qualifications

• 2-4 years of experience in a security engineering, DevSecOps, or closely related infrastructure/engineering role.
• Working knowledge of cloud security fundamentals, ideally AWS (IAM, network security groups, logging/monitoring).
• Hands-on experience with vulnerability management tools and processes - finding, triaging, and driving remediation, not just reporting.
• Comfort reading and writing code or scripts (Python, Bash, or similar) to automate security tooling and workflows.
• Ability to work cross-functionally with engineering teams and communicate security risk in terms they can act on.
• Willingness to participate in an on-call rotation for security incidents.

Responsibilities

• Vulnerability remediation - own and drive vulnerabilities identified through DAT's scanning and monitoring stack through to closure against defined SLAs.
• Incident response - participate in the security on-call rotation and serve as a technical responder during active security incidents, following DAT's incident response runbooks.
• Secure design review - review architecture and feature designs from engineering teams for security risk as part of DAT's Secure Design Review process, before code ships.
• Security tooling - maintain and improve the tools that make security scale, including WAF, endpoint protection, vulnerability scanning, and SIEM/alerting integrations.
• Cloud & network security - contribute to ongoing cloud security hardening and Zero Trust network initiatives across DAT's AWS environment.
• Cross-team partnership - work directly with product and engineering teams to close security exceptions, remediate findings, and build security into their workflows - without owning their roadmap.
