## About this role.

AI SummaryCision is seeking a Security Engineer to strengthen cloud, on-premises, and third-party security architecture across the organization. The role combines security engineering, DevSecOps, identity and access management, cryptography, threat management, and GRC control alignment. The engineer will partner closely with R&D and other departments, embed security in CI/CD processes, assess incidents and vulnerabilities, and help protect customer data. Although titled Engineer I, the requirement for 5+ years of relevant experience and broad technical ownership indicates an experienced individual contributor role. The position is remote within Hungary and includes availability for urgent after-hours incident response.

Sample interview questionsHow would you embed security effectively into an existing CI/CD pipeline?I would first map the current delivery workflow and identify high-risk points, then introduce automated controls such as SAST, dependency and secret scanning, IaC scanning, container scanning, and policy gates. Findings should be risk-prioritized, integrated into developers’ existing tools, and supported by clear remediation guidance so security improves delivery rather than becoming a late-stage blocker.

Describe your approach to securing a cloud-native application that handles customer data.

I would apply defense in depth: least-privilege IAM, network segmentation, encryption in transit and at rest, managed key lifecycle controls, centralized logging, continuous configuration monitoring, and vulnerability management. I would also threat-model the application, validate backup and incident-response processes, and map controls to applicable privacy and compliance requirements.

How do SAML, OAuth, and OpenID Connect differ, and when would you use them?

SAML is commonly used for enterprise browser-based single sign-on through signed XML assertions. OAuth 2.0 is an authorization framework for delegated access to APIs, while OpenID Connect adds an identity layer on top of OAuth 2.0 for authentication. I would generally use SAML or OIDC for workforce SSO depending on platform support, and OAuth/OIDC for modern application and API authorization flows.

How would you conduct a threat model for a new service?

I would define the service scope, architecture, assets, trust boundaries, data flows, and external dependencies. Using a structured method such as STRIDE, I would identify likely threats, assess likelihood and business impact, assign owners, and document mitigations such as stronger authentication, validation, rate limiting, encryption, monitoring, or design changes. The threat model should be revisited as the system changes.

An alert suggests anomalous access to a production cloud account. What are your first actions?

I would validate the alert and quickly establish scope using identity, API, endpoint, and network logs. If credible, I would contain the activity by disabling or restricting affected credentials and sessions while preserving evidence, then assess data exposure, eradicate the cause, recover safely, and communicate status through the incident process. Afterwards, I would lead a post-incident review focused on root cause, detection improvements, and durable preventative controls.
