Position Summary
The GoodLeap security team is responsible for both business enablement and safeguarding the organization’s information assets; it is involved in virtually all aspects of the business, from product safety and resilience, to building security paved roads, customer, partner, and regulatory trust, managing technology governance and compliance, and ensuring the privacy, and safety of GoodLeap’s customer, partner, and employee information.
The product and application lead engineer role provides a unique opportunity to shape the security and resilience of GoodLeap products, services, and applications. In this role, you will work closely with the product, engineering, and business teams within GoodLeap's business units, acting as the key individual with both the authority and responsibility to ensure the safety and resilience of the products and services developed and operated by the business unit.

Product features: Identifying potential misuse and abuse cases, proposing features to address these scenarios, and defining product features to meet resilience requirements.
