The Product Security Team's mission is to Left-shift SDLC (Security Development Lifecycle) processes for ALL code written in Databricks (for Customer Use or Supporting Customer internally) to reduce the likelihood of introducing new vulnerabilities in production and minimize the count and effect of externally identified vulnerabilities on Databricks Services.


You will be an individual contributor on the product security team at Databricks, managing SDLC functions for features and products within Databricks. This would include, but is not limited to, security design reviews, threat models, manual code reviews, exploit writing and exploit chain creation.

Work with other security teams to provide support for Incident Response and Vulnerability Response as and when needed.
Work with the results of SAST tools to help evaluate and identify false positives and file defects for real issues.
Work on DAST tools and related automation for auto-assessment and defect filing.
Maintain the automation framework and add new features as needed to support different security compliances that Databricks may want to get into – FedRamp, PCI, HIPPA, etc.
Prioritize security from a risk management perspective, rather than an absolute textbook version.
Help develop and implement security processes to improve the overall productivity of the product security organization and the SDLC process in general
