You're Our Person If...

• You have 5-8 years of experience in a security engineering, security architecture, or security assurance role.
• Cloud Security: You have experience securing products and infrastructure across one or more public cloud environments (Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft Azure, Alibaba Cloud, or equivalent), with an understanding of cloud service models, shared responsibility boundaries, and identity primitives at scale.
• Threat Modeling & Risk Assessment: You have experience conducting structured security design reviews and threat modeling across infrastructure and application security domains, with familiarity with common vulnerability classes (Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) Top 10, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) Top 25), and can evaluate and communicate security risk to technical and non-technical audiences alike.
• Identity, Access, and Network Fundamentals: You understand authentication and authorization patterns including Open Authorization (OAuth) / OpenID Connect (OIDC), Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML), service-to-service authentication, and API authorization models, as well as TCP/IP, Transport Layer Security (TLS), network segmentation, and key management, certificate lifecycles, secrets handling, and encryption standards.
• You have strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to influence engineering teams toward secure outcomes without relying on direct organizational authority.

Even Better If...

• You can reason through abuse cases and attack paths, not just defensive recommendations, with some familiarity with penetration testing methodologies or offensive security techniques.
• You have experience participating in or driving improvements to a secure development lifecycle, security review process, or security advisory program within an engineering organization.
• You can work with structured data, identify patterns across a broad service portfolio, and propose mitigations that address root causes rather than individual findings.
• You can read and reason about code in one or more languages common in cloud-native engineering environments — particularly Java, Go, or Python — and have hands-on familiarity with container orchestration and workload security (Kubernetes, Docker, service mesh such as Istio), secrets/key management and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) tooling, Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) and vulnerability scanning tools, or static analysis (SAST) and infrastructure-as-code security scanning.

Posting Statement

Salesforce is an equal opportunity employer and maintains a policy of non-discrimination with all employees and applicants for employment. What does that mean exactly? It means that at Salesforce, we believe in equality for all. And we believe we can lead the path to equality in part by creating a workplace that’s inclusive, and free from discrimination. Know your rights: workplace discrimination is illegal. Any employee or potential employee will be assessed on the basis of merit, competence and qualifications – without regard to race, religion, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender expression or identity, transgender status, age, disability, veteran or marital status, political viewpoint, or other classifications protected by law. This policy applies to current and prospective employees, no matter where they are in their Salesforce employment journey. It also applies to recruiting, hiring, job assignment, compensation, promotion, benefits, training, assessment of job performance, discipline, termination, and everything in between. Recruiting, hiring, and promotion decisions at Salesforce are fair and based on merit. The same goes for compensation, benefits, promotions, transfers, reduction in workforce, recall, training, and education.

In the United States, compensation offered will be determined by factors such as location, job level, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. Certain roles may be eligible for incentive compensation, equity, and benefits. Salesforce offers a variety of benefits to help you live well including: time off programs, medical, dental, vision, mental health support, paid parental leave, life and disability insurance, 401(k), and an employee stock purchasing program.
