About Us: Zeely is the agentic AI platform for creating, launching, and scaling paid ads.

What You'll Do:

- Identify, prioritize, and fix vulnerabilities across our product and cloud infrastructure;
- Respond to security incidents and help defend against attacks in real time;
- Close security tickets end to end, from investigation to fix in code or infrastructure;
- Integrate security checks and tooling into our development pipeline (SDLC / CI/CD);
- Review code and infrastructure changes from a security perspective;
- Help implement security controls and gather evidence for compliance (SOC 2, CASA);
- Work with the DevOps and Platform teams on access management, secrets, and hardening of our AWS environment.

What Do You Need to Join Us?

- 5+ years of engineering experience, with the ability to work fully independently;

- Backend development background in at least one of: Node.js / JavaScript / TypeScript, Java, C#/.NET, Go, or Rust;
- Strong practical experience with DevOps and cloud infrastructure (AWS);
- Hands-on experience finding and fixing vulnerabilities (OWASP Top 10, cloud misconfigurations, dependency issues);
- Experience handling security incidents;
- Upper-Intermediate (B2+) English or higher;
- Fluent Ukrainian.

Nice to Have:

- A career path from backend to DevOps/Platform to Security;
- Security certifications (AWS Security Specialty or similar);
- Experience preparing for SOC 2, ISO 27001, or CASA audits;
- Understanding of GDPR and/or CCPA (CPRA) requirements.

Why It's Worth Joining Us:

- A hands-on security role with real impact in a stable, profitable product company;
- Work with cutting-edge technologies and contribute to building AI-powered tools;
- A strong team of A-level players who push each other to grow;
