Synthesia is the world's first AI video generation platform. It's a video production studio in a browser; no cameras, no film crews. You simply choose an avatar, enter your script, and your video is ready in minutes. We believe the future of media is synthetic, and we are on a mission to turn cameras into code and make everyone a creator. Check out our brand video to get a deeper insight into what we're working on here at Synthesia.
In engineering, we are working on a variety of ambitious projects that are critical to our mission. These range from hyper-personalized onboarding, which aims to introduce new customers to Synthesia through a low-latency, highly personalised experience, to creating our own video delivery platform. This platform, in addition to addressing typical concerns such as video transcoding and tiered storage, will allow us to offer proprietary media formats to our customers, including nonlinear and translatable video.
What you'll do at Synthesia:
We are looking for an additional team member on the Synthesia Security Team - specifically on what we like to call the Corporate Security, or “CorpSec”, team.
At Synthesia, our CorpSec and AppSec teams work hand-in-hand to ensure the highest level of security in our operations. CorpSec owns the general Security Operations, and focuses on the protection of corporate information and assets, while AppSec is concerned with the security of our applications, working extremely close to our Product engineers. Together, they collaborate to identify and mitigate security risks, share knowledge, and develop strategies for continuous improvement in our security program.
We are looking for someone who can assist us in maintaining and improving our Security and Compliance Operations efforts. Responsibilities will include:
- Building out and maintaining Security Automation
- Supporting our sales and legal teams in answering security questions coming from customers
- Participating in security incident response efforts
- Participate in compliance management related efforts (SOC2, ISO27001 and ISO42001)
- Be a reasonable, friendly and effective internal security advocate
What we're looking for:
- Technical know-how: You should have 4+ years of engineering experience and a good understanding of the technical aspects of security. While you don't need to be a master hacker, we are looking for someone with a technical security background.
- Automation experience: You should have a track record of implementing automation in a security context.
- Excellent communication skills: We are sometimes customer facing, and assist the commercial functions in answering security-related questions coming from customers and prospects.
- AWS: You have worked professionally with AWS and have a good understanding of the various security challenges that come with that.
