About the job
There's no such thing as a "safe system" - only safer systems. Our Security team works to create and maintain the safest operating environment for Google's users and developers. As a Security Engineer, you help protect network boundaries, keep computer systems and network devices hardened against attacks and provide security services to protect highly sensitive data like passwords and customer information. Security Engineers work directly with network equipment and actively monitor our systems for attacks and intrusions. You also work with software engineers to proactively identify and fix security flaws and vulnerabilities.
You use your industry experience to own and drive the resolution of complex security incidents, policy questions and technical security issues.
The mission of the Security and Privacy organization is to protect, respect and defend our users, Googlers, and the Internet. Users trust Google with large quantities of highly important data and expect it to be protected from illicit access. Increasingly, sophisticated actors attempt to threaten the security of this data and the privacy of our users. The Detection and Response team mission is to understand these threats, detect them, and respond with equal vigor.
Responsibilities
- Build and maintain detection logic and automation to detect and investigate threats to Google's data, network, and infrastructure.
- Work with teams from around Google to discover new detection capabilities and logging sources.
- Participate in a 24/7 global operation that hunts for and responds to security events on Google's networks.
- Perform investigations on a wide variety of events from various sources to determine whether they pose a threat to Google.
About The Company
A problem isn't truly solved until it's solved for all. Googlers build products that help create opportunities for everyone, whether down the street or across the globe. Bring your insight, imagination and a healthy disregard for the impossible. Bring everything that makes you unique. Together, we can build for everyone.
