Security engineer in abuse control in London

ОписаниеAbuse Control Engineering (ACE) is Stripe’s rapid-response technical defense and control incubator. When urgent abuse vectors emerge, ACE uses real-world attacker telemetry to prototype, test, and deploy software safeguards before vulnerabilities can be exploited at scale. As an Abuse Control Engineer on the ACE team, you will design, prototype, and incubate technical defenses that safeguard Stripe’s financial ecosystem against complex, cross-cutting abuse vectors.ЗадачиDesign, prototype, and deploy technical controls across API, protocol, and product boundaries to address high-impact abuse vectors.Translate empirical attacker evidence and FT3 threat research from Abuse Research, Fraud, and Security teams into precise technical abuse requirements and control specifications.Collaborate with teams across Stripe to design resilient, secure controls across payments, onboarding, identity, and Connect surfaces.Run rigorous experiments and A/B tests to measure risk reduction against the impact on legitimate user conversion, optimizing controls to minimize friction while neutralizing threats.Build comprehensive regression test suites and automated attack simulations with Abuse Research to ensure mitigated abuse vectors do not recur.Execute ACE’s incubation model by defining handoff criteria, operational documentation, timelines, and target dates for transferring successful controls to product teams.Требования10+ years of experience in security engineering, software engineering, application security, or anti-abuse engineering in a high-scale production environment.A bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer science, cybersecurity, software engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.A strong software development background, with proficiency in Python, Go, Java, or a similar production programming language, as well as advanced SQL skills for analyzing system telemetry.Experience using frontier AI models for software development, learning, and analysis.Hands-on experience building API-level safeguards, rate-limiting frameworks, authentication or authorization checks, or input-validation controls.Experience with automated testing frameworks, including writing unit, integration, and regression tests for critical backend software.Strong cross-functional collaboration and communication skills, with a track record of partnering across security, product, and platform teams to drive technical outcomes.Будет плюсом: A track record of designing and executing A/B tests, evaluating control efficacy, and balancing security safeguards against user conversion friction; Expertise in threat modeling, secure systems architecture, and modern application-security design principles; Familiarity with established threat frameworks, such as FT3 or MITRE ATT&CK, and experience applying adversary kill-chain analysis to build resilient defenses; Knowledge of financial fraud vectors, threat-actor tactics, techniques, and procedures, and attacker infrastructure, including
