Staff / Senior Staff Security Engineer, Vinted Pay
We are looking for a Staff or Senior Staff Security Engineer to help shape and strengthen the security of a fast-growing digital payments platform. In this highly influential role, you will work across engineering, infrastructure, product, risk, and compliance teams to improve the security of systems that handle sensitive customer and financial data. You will combine strategic thinking with hands-on technical expertise, helping teams build secure, reliable, and scalable services from the ground up.
Your responsibilities will include defining and evolving security architecture, threat modelling new products and services, and identifying pragmatic controls to reduce risk across cloud infrastructure, applications, APIs, identities, and data. You will lead complex security initiatives, establish engineering standards and patterns, and guide teams through secure design, implementation, testing, and operational readiness. You will also contribute to incident response, vulnerability management, security monitoring, and the continuous improvement of detection and prevention capabilities. As a senior technical leader, you will mentor security engineers and software developers, influence technical decisions, and communicate security risks and recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
We are seeking substantial experience in security engineering, application security, cloud security, platform security, or a closely related discipline, together with a track record of leading large-scale security programmes or solving complex technical problems. Strong knowledge of modern cloud environments, secure software development, identity and access management, networking, cryptography, and security automation is expected. Experience in payments, financial services, or other highly regulated environments would be valuable, as would familiarity with relevant security frameworks and compliance requirements. You should be comfortable operating autonomously, making sound risk-based decisions, and influencing without relying on formal authority. Clear communication, curiosity, collaboration, and a practical approach to balancing security with product delivery are essential.
