Security Engineer - NYC Hedge Fund - 12 Month Contract
Security architect job in New York, NY
This role is for a mid-to-senior Security Engineer who thrives in a lean, high-performance environment and takes a hands-on, engineering-first approach to security. You will operate as a generalist within a small security team, owning the design, build, and evolution of security systems that protect a highly technical organization with many proprietary platforms. This is not an analyst role; the focus is on building, integrating, and improving security capabilities end to end, with a strong emphasis on problem solving, automation, and how systems work together.
You will design and implement enterprise-grade security monitoring, detection, and response solutions, integrating commercial tools and developing custom capabilities tailored to the environment. While the role includes reviewing and triaging alerts from detection and response platforms, the core responsibility is continuously improving detection quality, response workflows, and overall security posture. You will engineer and tune detections using structured data and JSON-based queries, develop automated response and orchestration workflows, and drive improvements across the full incident lifecycle.
The position requires close collaboration with teams across the organization, translating security risks and technical concepts into clear, practical language for non-security stakeholders. You will partner with engineering, infrastructure, and product teams to embed security into systems and workflows, applying strong security principles that are portable across technologies rather than tied to a single toolset. The environment is fast-moving and production-heavy, with ongoing adoption of AI-driven technologies and modern development practices.
The ideal candidate has several years of experience in security engineering, preferably in a fintech, startup, or similarly high-tech environment, and is accustomed to operating outside of large, siloed security teams. You bring strong hands-on experience with cloud and endpoint security platforms such as Azure, Microsoft Defender, and Elastic, with exposure to tools like Zscaler and Purview considered a plus. You are comfortable coding and scripting, particularly in Python, working with Git-based workflows, and applying infrastructure-as-code concepts. Experience building and operating detection and response systems, security orchestration and automation platforms, and threat-informed defenses is essential.
They'll need someone who's fully authorized to work in the US without any sponsorship / visa (cannot support H1B).

Lead Security Engineer - Hands-On Role with Leadership Opportunity
We're looking to hire a senior-level Security Engineer who's ready to step up and take the lead. Someone who's still very hands-on technically but also enjoys mentoring others, setting direction, and building scalable solutions that make a real difference.
Title: Lead Security Engineer
Salary: $160,000 to 190,000 +Bonus
Location: Queens, NY (Hybrid)
This role sits at the center of engineering, operations, and security-you'll be working directly with software and infrastructure teams to make sure security is embedded into everything we do. You won't just be managing tools; you'll help shape how security is done across the company.
If you're based in the NYC area and looking for the next serious step in your career-where your ideas are heard and your work actually drives change-this is worth a conversation.
What the Role Looks Like:
You'll lead and mentor a small but growing team of security engineers, helping them grow while staying deep in the tech yourself.
Work with internal teams to design and implement security solutions-cloud security, PAM, app and system hardening, etc.
You'll be the one connecting the dots between development, infrastructure, and security-building relationships across teams and making sure security is part of the process from the start.
Help optimize and improve the tools we already have, and figure out what's missing.
What We're Hoping You Bring:
A few years of experience leading or mentoring other security engineers-you don't need to have managed huge teams, but you've helped others level up.
Solid technical background (5+ years in security engineering) and experience with on-prem and cloud security solutions (AWS or Azure).
Hands-on knowledge of privileged access, identity management, system hardening, and network security.
Strong instincts for risk, practical problem-solving, and keeping systems both secure and usable.
Someone who communicates clearly, doesn't get lost in buzzwords, and works well with people across teams.
Nice to Have, But Not Dealbreakers:
Certifications like CISSP, CEH, CISM
Experience with Linux security or scripting
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and how security fits into DevOps
Why This Role Might Be Right for You:
You're ready for more responsibility and leadership, but don't want to give up the technical side of the work.
You want to be part of a stable company with real backing and complex challenges to work on.
