Why join us?
We’re a global tech company,  just not the kind you’re picturing.
Sure, we’ve got catered lunches, team events, cool merch, and yes... dogs in the office. But that’s not why people join.

Our team of nearly a thousand people wakes up every day to make our product and our customers’ lives better. At SafetyCulture, you’ll hear “yes, let’s give it a shot” more often than “that’s not how we do things here.”

People join because we’re building tools that make work better for the 3 billion people who keep the world moving - factory floor operators, baggage handlers, truck drivers, servers, store assistants. The ones who make things happen. We’ve got the scale and innovation you’d expect from big tech. The difference? No endless layers of sign-off. No corporate theatre. Just smart, experienced people solving real problems fast .

The scale is big. But the ownership’s personal. Every full-time team member gets equity - real skin in the game. When we grow, you do too. We’re not perfect, no company is. But this next chapter of our growth is about scaling with intelligence, not just size - fueled by operational maturity, a clear vision, and a strong focus on AI. 

This is big tech impact, without the big tech ick. If that excites you more than it scares you, you’ll fit right in.


About the Role

At SafetyCulture, we build products that help millions of people work safer and smarter every day. As a Staff Application Security Engineer, you’ll ensure our platform is secure by design and secure by default. 
You’ll embed security into how we build; partnering with product and engineering teams to shape secure architectures, APIs, and development practices across our cloud-native SaaS platform running on AWS.
You’ll help us scale security while maintaining high engineering velocity.
At Staff level, you will lead cross-team security initiatives such as secure-by-default patterns, major authentication migrations, and large-scale dependency risk reduction. You’ll influence architectural decisions across multiple product teams and mentor engineers across the organisation, uplifting secure coding and design practices at scale.

About You

You’re a hands-on security engineer with strong software engineering fundamentals. You understand how modern SaaS platforms are built; microservices, distributed systems, CI/CD and you know how to make them secure in practical, scalable ways.
You’re comfortable reviewing production code (we primarily use Go), leading threat modelling discussions, and guiding teams on secure patterns. You communicate clearly, think in terms of risk and impact, and enjoy working closely with engineers to make the secure path the easiest path.
