We are seeking a scrappy, high-ownership Staff Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to join our lean, fast-moving SRE team. This is a security-focused engineering role rather than a policy or audit one. You'll write code, build automation, integrate scanners into CI/CD, ship Terraform modules the rest of the team can adopt, and drive Dependabot triage with engineering teams. Together, you'll define what "secure by default" actually looks like in our GCP environment and GitHub organization, then make it operational. Why This Role A clear charter with a foundation to build on. Cloud security posture, vulnerability/dependency management, and security solution engineering are yours. The pieces exist (scanners, IAM controls, edge protections, GitHub baselines), but no one has stitched them into a coherent program. You will. Build the program, then scale it through the team. You're shipping security tooling, automation, and IaC modules the rest of SRE can run. The work scales through the team rather than centralizing on one person. Real platform surface area. You're working across GKE workloads, Istio mesh, Cloud Armor, Cloudflare edge, GitHub Actions supply chain, and GCP IAM. The kind of stack with enough surface area that you can make a measurable impact in your first quarter. High-signal moment in the industry. Post-Shai-Hulud, post-XZ, post-everything: CI/CD supply chain hardening, secret management, and short-lived credentials are no longer aspirational. You'll be implementing security best practices, not just documenting them. What You'll Build Cloud Security Posture Management Assess and harden Stord's GCP footprint (GKE, IAM, Cloud Armor), and codify the baseline in Terraform and policy-as-code where it makes sense. Build continuous posture monitoring against that baseline, with a published gap list and remediation schedule. Drive the evaluation, integration, and rollout of new security tooling as the program matures. You'll lead the conversations and recommendations on what we adopt, what we build in-house, and what we sunset. Vulnerability and Dependency Management Establish and automate the vulnerability and dependency remediation workflow across engineering teams: triage cadence, ownership model, severity-based SLAs, and the tracking infrastructure that drives closure. Own Dependabot configuration and triage workflows across our GitHub organization, plus secret scanning, push protection, and response workflows for any secrets that surface. Build supply-chain controls into CI/CD: provenance, dependency review, lockfile policies, build attestation where it pays off. Wire container image scanning and DAST/network scanning programs into the same workflow so vulnerabilities don't slip through the cracks between layers. Security Solutions Engineering Build security capabilities that the broader SRE team can run as part of their normal operating model: Terraform modules, Cloud Armor rules, Istio authorization policies, Cloudflare configuration, scanner pipelines, and custom automation that fills gaps in off-the-shelf tooling. Ship documentation, runbooks, and self-service tooling that make your designs portable to the rest of the team, so the program continues to function smoothly through handoffs and rotations. Set the engineering bar for security work inside SRE: code review standards, IaC patter
