Safetyculture

Senior Security Engineer - Sydney

Sydney / Melbourne Full Time
Why join us?
We’re a global tech company,  just not the kind you’re picturing.

Sure, we’ve got catered lunches, team events, cool merch, and yes... dogs in the office. But that’s not why people join.

Our team of nearly a thousand people wakes up every day to make our product and our customers’ lives better. At SafetyCulture, you’ll hear “yes, let’s give it a shot” more often than “that’s not how we do things here.”

People join because we’re building tools that make work better for the 3 billion people who keep the world moving - factory floor operators, baggage handlers, truck drivers, servers, store assistants. The ones who make things happen. We’ve got the scale and innovation you’d expect from big tech. The difference? No endless layers of sign-off. No corporate theatre. Just smart, experienced people solving real problems fast 

The scale is big. But the ownership’s personal. Every full-time team member gets equity - real skin in the game. When we grow, you do too. We’re not perfect, no company is. But this next chapter of our growth is about scaling with intelligence, not just size - fueled by operational maturity, a clear vision, and a strong focus on AI. 

This is big tech impact, without the big tech ick.
If that excites you more than it scares you, you’ll fit right in.

About the Role

As a Senior Security Engineer, you’ll shape the evolution of SafetyCulture’s cloud security foundation - automating protection, detection, and response across AWS environments serving millions of users. You’ll partner closely with software, platform, and data engineers to uplift our security maturity and embed secure design into every layer of our platform. You’ll lead initiatives that ensure every line of code and every deployment contributes to a secure, resilient system.

About You

You’re a versatile engineer whose domain is the AWS Cloud. You understand how to architect and secure AWS-based infrastructure and have strong coding experience in Golang, NodeJS, or Python. Security is foundational to how you build from vulnerability management and system hardening to security automation and architecture. You’re a self-starter who can take projects from idea to completion and thrive in collaborative, fast-paced environments. You bring curiosity, pragmatism, and a drive to make security scalable through elegant automation.
