Introduction:

The Zebra, named a Best Place to Work in Austin four years in a row, is revolutionizing how connected consumers research and shop for insurance. We intentionally strive to build diverse teams that feel inclusive for all. Our motto is "All Stripes Welcome," and we put that into practice by valuing both traditional and non-conventional backgrounds and perspectives. Our Zeebs are passionate about learning, growing, & working together to tackle exciting problems.

We’re seeking an Information Security Analyst to help us secure, maintain and grow a world-class insurance buying experience. This role offers a unique opportunity to help shape and grow our security culture while focusing on the corporate side of our company. We are looking for a versatile, growing cloud security professional who loves to make an impact through cross-organizational efforts to keep The Zebra secure and aligned with various state and federal laws.

Location:

While we are open to remote work across the contingent US, we are still establishing our company to support work in all states! We’ve recently shifted from an in-office organization to a hybrid model and love the flexibility it allows our employees. We are set up to support employees who want to be fully remote, in-office only, and a mix of the two. Please note - we will not be supporting work based out of the following states: CA, MA, NY, NJ.

What You'll Do:

  • Learn existing technical infrastructure, and internal designs.
  • Create and maintain internal documentation related to internal & external systems and designs.
  • Work with others to learn, gain exposure to, co-design, and co-implement security measures as needed (e.g, IAM role, SSO adaptation, etc.).
  • Validate, confirm and co-implement monitoring and alerting systems based on business requirements and needs.
  • Learn about and confirm proper DevSecOps practices are being implemented.
  • Gain exposure and experience around current security controls to help improve security posture. (e.g. WAF, DLP, SIEM, TVM, SAST/DAST, DevSecOps, etc.).
  • Monitor and respond to regulatory developments, industry-standard processes, and security alerts, in a timely manner.

What We're Looking For:

As we evaluate candidates across all roles, we look for folks who have a strong sense of ownership, great communication and collaboration skills, and a dedication to continuous improvement.

  • Exposure with DevSecOps
  • Exposure with cloud technologies (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure, etc.)
  • Exposure with container security (e.g., Docker, Dockerfile, CI/CD building, etc.)
  • Experience with scripting languages and tools (e.g., Python, Node, Bash, etc.)
  • Exposure to run books, and general standard operating procedures (e.g., Network issues, Alert handling, etc.)
  • Exposure to networks, network configurations and hardening, at scale. (e.g., Enterprise level networks)

Experience that will Impress the Heck Out of Us: (stick to 3-4 bullets, not required)

  • CEH, CCSP, CISA, CCSP, AWS Security, DevSecOps Foundation, CompTIA+
  • Information security experience in PCI / SOC environments
  • Networking, Application Security, SIEM experience
  • Identity and Access Management Configuration and Hardening

Benefits & Perks:

Inclusive and healthy environments are crafted intentionally. All of our employees can join and participate in (or create your own!) Employee Resource Groups. Here are some other wonderful perks of working here:

  • Competitive Compensation & Stock Option Offering
  • Health, Dental, Vision & Disability Coverages
  • HSA offering + employer contribution
  • 401k with match
  • Unlimited PTO (paid time off)+ flexibility to enjoy it

  • Join a team that truly lives their values (outside of the office. Cliche, we know… but we really mean it)
