Staff Product Security Engineer

New York City Cyber Security

THE POSITION
Our roster has an opening with your name on it

As a Staff Security Engineer on our Product Security team, you'll define and deliver multi-year security initiatives and set the direction for how FanDuel engineers build securely by default at scale. Working across the engineering organization, you'll identify risk before it surfaces and shape the technical and organizational capabilities the team needs to stay ahead. You'll define both the what and the how, mentor the next generation of security talent, and step into whatever gap is keeping the program from moving forward. 

In addition to the specific responsibilities outlined above, employees may be required to perform other such duties as assigned by the Company. This ensures operational flexibility and allows the Company to meet evolving business needs.

THE GAME PLAN
Everyone on our team has a part to play

  • Define the multi-year vision and strategy for how Product Security engages with engineering, and set the standards that make secure design the path of least resistance across FanDuel. 
  • Partner with leadership across the business to shape direction, work through trade-offs, and make sure security is a first-class input into our engineering strategy. 
  • Set the direction for AI/LLM security architecture across FanDuel by defining the controls, patterns, assessment frameworks, and governance models that let us ship AI-powered products safely and at speed. 
  • Evolve the methodology behind our threat modeling, penetration testing, and risk assessment programs, and lead the highest-stakes engagements yourself. 
  • Evolve our HackerOne bug bounty and vulnerability disclosure programs, ensuring external findings feed back into systemic improvements 
  • Build automation and tooling that shifts our efforts into scalable, repeatable, build-secure-by-default systems. 
  • Lead and evolve the Security Champions program, embedding security judgment across every engineering team at FanDuel. 
  • Drive the continued maturation of our vulnerability and risk management program, including its data, systems, and reporting capabilities. 
  • Own and maintain a library of reusable security reference architectures and design patterns, keeping it current with the technology landscape and evolving threat environment. 
  • Mentor other engineers, shape technical culture, and help grow the next generation of security leaders across the organization. 
  • Adapt your role to fill technical or organizational gaps as the program evolves. 
  • Other duties as required. 

THE STATS

  • Extensive security engineering experience with broad and deep expertise across multiple security practices. 
  • A demonstrated track record of defining and delivering multi-year security strategy in ambiguous, fast-moving environments. 
  • Proven expertise in AI/LLM security architecture, including the threat landscape, the mitigation patterns, and the governance models that make AI adoption safe at scale. 
  • Experience leading threat modeling, penetration testing, and risk assessment programs at scale, including evolving methodology and personally leading high-stakes engagements. 
  • Experience working within or strategically evolving a bug bounty or vulnerability disclosure program (HackerOne or similar) and closing the loop between external findings and material change. 
  • A track record of maturing vulnerability and risk management programs, including the data, systems, and reporting capabilities that support leadership decision-making.
