Job description
from Confluent careersWe’re not just building better tech. We’re rewriting how data moves and what the world can do with it. With Confluent, data doesn’t sit still. Our platform puts information in motion, streaming in near real-time so companies can react faster, build smarter, and deliver experiences as dynamic as the world around them.
It takes a certain kind of person to join this team. Those who ask hard questions, give honest feedback, and show up for each other. No egos, no solo acts. Just smart, curious humans pushing toward something bigger, together.
One Confluent. One Team. One Data Streaming Platform.
About the Role:
As a Staff Application Security Engineer at Confluent, you will join a team of security architects and engineers responsible for shaping and advancing the application security strategy across our on-premises products and cloud services. In this role, you will go beyond implementation to define the long-term security posture of our ecosystem, spanning high-scale distributed systems, on-prem deployments, and globally operated cloud platforms.
You will lead the design and evolution of application security architecture, ensuring security is embedded throughout the product lifecycle—from early design decisions to cloud deployment and ongoing operations. Acting as a strategic partner to Engineering and Product leadership, you will influence architectural direction and proactively mitigate systemic and emerging security risks.
