Work-Life balance

Contentful strives to build a secure and safe service and commits considerable effort and resources to security. Our Security team supports corporate-wide information security management programs and collaborates closely with internal teams. We believe that Security must be anchored by DevOps principles with strong repeatable processes.

We are looking for a committed and driven Security Engineer with experience securing enterprise systems in modern, cloud-native and Software-as-a-Server (SaaS) based architectures. In this role, you will support day-to-day security operations while partnering with cross-functional teams, including information technology and data teams, to design, deliver, and enhance practical, scalable security solutions across the organization. Key initiatives may include threat modeling, assessing the security of third-party platforms, automating and streamlining inefficient processes, and integrating security solutions across enterprise environments.

This is a hands-on role focused on building and scaling security through engineering, automation, and collaboration. You will help shape and mature an enterprise security function by embedding security into internal systems and workflows, supporting secure use of third-party SaaS platforms, and partnering with teams to reduce risk without slowing the business. This role offers the opportunity to apply deep technical skills while making a meaningful impact on how security is delivered across the organization.
