    Security Engineer - Chicago, United States - Circle

    Default job background
    Description


    Circle is a financial technology company at the epicenter of the emerging internet of money, where value can finally travel like other digital data — globally, nearly instantly and less expensively than legacy settlement systems.

    This ground-breaking new internet layer opens up previously unimaginable possibilities for payments, commerce and markets that can help raise global economic prosperity and enhance inclusion.

    Our infrastructure – including USDC, a blockchain-based dollar – helps businesses, institutions and developers harness these breakthroughs and capitalize on this major turning point in the evolution of money and technology.


    What you'll be part of:
    Circle is committed to visibility and stability in everything we do. As we grow as an organization, we're expanding into some of the world's strongest jurisdictions.

    Speed and efficiency are motivators for our success and our employees live by our company values:
    Multistakeholder, Mindfulness, Driven by Excellence and High Integrity. Circlers are consistently evolving in a remote world where strength in numbers fuels team success. We have built a flexible and diverse work environment where new ideas are encouraged and everyone is a stakeholder.

    Cyber Security at Circle:
    The primary purpose of this role is to help Circle look after the organization's cyber interests.

    Taking part in this role will provide you with invaluable professional and intercultural skills that prepare you to excel academically and professionally in Circle's increasingly globalized & digital world.

    Internship positions vary across cyber defense, engineering, and other cyber security teams, and the candidate is encouraged to voice their preference and interests within cyber security in their submission.

    If you're a forward thinker, a problem solver, and somebody that is interested in building something meaningful and would love to work in an entrepreneurial environment, we can't wait to hear from you.


    You will aspire to our four core values:
    Multistakeholder -

    you have dedication and commitment to our customers, shareholders, employees and families and local communities.
    Mindful -

    you seek to be respectful, an active listener and to pay attention to detail.
    Driven by Excellence -


    you are driven by our mission and our passion for customer success which means you relentlessly pursue excellence, that you do not tolerate mediocrity and you work intensely to achieve your goals.

    High Integrity -

    you seek open and honest communication, and you hold yourself to very high moral and ethical standards.

    You reject manipulation, dishonesty and intolerance.

    What you'll do:


    As a Security Engineer Intern on the Circle Security team, you will help us to secure the future of money.


    You will help to engineer solutions to streamline manual processes with automation while being immersed in a team of seasoned engineers.

    You will connect, develop, and learn with other engineers across an array of security functions.

    You'll work on:
    Challenging (and fun) problems centered around digital currencies & their adoption.

    Did we mention that Circle launched a "programmable dollar" called USD Coin (or USDC)?
    Collaborating with our Product and Engineering teams to design, develop, test and ship phenomenal Circle features
    Building complex security testing automation with accessible APIs that make it simple for engineers to integrate with continuous integration systems

    You'll bring to Circle (Not all required):
    Interest and/or experience in object oriented programming with Python.
    Interest and/or experience with security testing and/or penetration testing
    A broad understanding of cybersecurity fundamentals
    A broad understanding of API usage and REST principles
    Experience with Cloud Services (AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, etc)
    Experience with SQL databases
    Excellent communication skills, able to collaborate with remote teams, share ideas and present concepts effectively
    Passion, initiative, and a curious mindset—you enjoy moving at a fast pace and constantly improving your work with little supervision

    Additional Information:
