Security Engineer

Security isn’t a department. It’s a mindset.

At FlowQi, security is everyone’s responsibility — but someone has to own it. That’s you. We run EU and global infrastructure, handle business-critical data for hundreds of companies, and operate in a fully distributed team. Security has to be rock solid without slowing anyone down.

This role is primarily internal security — infrastructure, access, networks, and the systems that keep everything safe. We’re not looking for someone who writes compliance reports. We’re looking for someone who actually knows how things break.

What you’ll own

• VPN infrastructure and zero-trust network access
• Identity and access management across our stack
• Infrastructure hardening — servers, containers, cloud configs
• Security monitoring, incident detection and response
• Internal security policies that people can actually follow
• Keeping us GDPR-compliant at the infrastructure level
• Vulnerability scanning and patching across our stack
• Secrets management — nothing should be in plaintext, ever

What we’re looking for

• You’ve run VPN and network access infrastructure in a distributed team
• You think in threat models — you know what attackers look for
• IAM experience across cloud platforms and internal systems
• You’ve done infrastructure security hardening in practice (not just theory)
• GDPR / data residency at the infra level — you know what’s required
• You automate security checks. Manual reviews don’t scale.
• You communicate risk clearly without crying wolf

Strong plus

• Experience in SaaS environments with multi-tenant data
• Container and Kubernetes security
• SIEM setup and tuning
• Prior experience in a startup or scale-up — you know how to build security without bureaucracy

What you get

• Fully remote — digital cloud nomad
• Small team, direct access to the founders
• You build it your way — we’re not inheriting anyone else’s mess
• Competitive compensation

Don’t send a CV, send a story. What’s the most interesting security problem you’ve solved? What did the attacker do, and how did you stop them?
