With a powerful suite of features and integrations with 150+ industry partners — including Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, Expedia, Google Travel, and many more — Guesty empowers property managers to deliver top-tier guest experiences while running more efficient, data-driven operations.

If you’re looking to grow your career in a dynamic, global, and impact-driven environment, we’d love to hear from you. 

We are looking for a Senior Cybersecurity Engineer to join our team.

As a Senior Cybersecurity Engineer, you are the architect and the guardian of our digital fortress. This role isn't just about reacting to threats; it’s about anticipating them, building resilient systems, and mentoring the next generation of defenders. You will bridge the gap between high-level security strategy and hands-on technical execution.

The Ideal Candidate is someone who thinks like an attacker but builds like an engineer. You don't just find a hole; you understand the systemic reason it existed and fix the process. You can explain a complex "Man-in-the-Middle" attack to a CEO without making their head spin, and you stay calm when the "Critical" alerts start firing on a Friday afternoon.

Proactiveness as a way of life - always think what the next attack vector will be, and where we should invest our efforts to prevent the next attack.

Success in this role is measured by a reduction in Mean Time to Detect (MTTD) and Mean Time to Respond (MTTR), as well as the successful hardening of our CI/CD pipelines.

Requirements:

• At least 5 years of experience as a cybersecurity engineer in a cloud-based environment, with vast hands-on experience
• Network Security: Firewalls (Palo Alto/Cisco), IDS/IPS, VPNs, Zero Trust Architecture.
• Cloud Security: IAM policies, KMS, CloudTrail, Container Security (Kubernetes/Docker).
• Tools: SIEM (Splunk/Sentinel), EDR (CrowdStrike/SentinelOne), Wireshark, Metasploit.
• DevSecOps: Integrating security into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins), managing the bug bounty program, validating the findings, and working with the teams to resolve the findings.
• Compliance and GRC: Experience with audit processes such as SOC2 Type 2 and PCI-DSS, using compliance management platforms (Vanta / Scytale)
• Certifications: CISSP, CISM, CEH, or AWS Certified Security Specialty.
