Senior Security Engineer

The Infrastructure Security team at Scribd is responsible for protecting our applications, platforms, and users through proactive, engineering-led security practices. As Scribd continues to scale, we are evolving our Detection & Response capabilities from reactive alerting toward a time-based security model - where speed, signal quality, and resilience are first-class design goals. As a Senior Security Engineer focused on Detection & Response, you will help shape Scribd’s long-term detection and response capabilities while owning execution within a defined domain. You’ll work closely with application, infrastructure, and IT security teams - as well as our managed detection and response (MDR) partner - to design high-fidelity telemetry, operationalize our SIEM, and continuously reduce mean time to detect and respond (MTTD/MTTR). This role is ideal for someone who enjoys building durable security systems, translating incidents into engineering improvements, and gradually expanding ownership through demonstrated impact.
