DISCO is the industry standard for managing, organising and sharing music and other media. We make music and media workflow fast, intuitive and simple, directly connecting people and their work to save time.

The Opportunity
As DISCO grows, we’re investing further in security by creating a dedicated Security Engineer role. You’ll build on the strong foundations our engineering team has established as a SOC 2-compliant SaaS company in the music industry, and help shape how our security program evolves and scales.
This role will work with security end-to-end at DISCO : internal and application security, cloud infrastructure, detection and response, and compliance. You will collaborate directly with engineering, product, legal and leadership, setting standards, assisting to harden our systems and build out the monitoring and processes that keep our platform and our customers' data safe.
If you are passionate about real security and you want to be the person who writes the playbook rather than follows one, this role is for you.
