About Us & The Role:
We're not building a traditional security team. We are a lean, forward-thinking organization that rapidly adopts the latest disruptive innovations to stay ahead of the curve. We believe the future of defense is smart, efficient, and scaled, and we're leveraging AI agents and modern platforms to build it (e.g., AI-assisted code analysis, GenAI-driven auto-patching, and advanced runtime/code correlation).
We are looking for a hands-on Application Security Engineer who is a builder and a pragmatist at heart. This isn't just a "scanner-pusher" or "ticket-filer" role; it's a "full-stack" security engineering position. You'll be a hands-on security partner, a developer's trusted ally, and a code-level expert, embedding security into our entire S-SDLC.
In our environment, a small, senior team means massive impact. You won't just find vulnerabilities; you'll help build the secure-by-default libraries, CI/CD guardrails, and AI-assisted tooling (like GenAI-powered auto-patching suggestions) that prevents them at scale. You'll also be a key voice in securing our next-generation services, including our use of LLMs and generative AI.
What do we offer?
Besides the tailored benefits we have for each country, dLocal will help you thrive and go that extra mile by offering you:
- Flexibility: we have flexible schedules and we are driven by performance.
