ZALORA Vietnam

Overview of job

ABOUT THE ROLE

Zalora is looking for a Junior Security Engineer to join its security team and support day-to-day security operations under the guidance of the Senior Security Lead. This is a hands-on, learning-oriented role: you’ll help execute security reviews, monitor and triage findings, support incident response, and assist with hardening cloud and application environments. You’ll work closely with the Senior Security Lead and Zalora engineering teams to build your skills across cloud security, application security, and AI/LLM security, while contributing directly to Zalora’s security posture.

Responsibilities

Security Operations & Monitoring

• Monitor security alerts, logs, and dashboards; triage and escalate findings to the Senior Security Lead as needed.
• Support day-to-day cloud security hygiene checks (primarily AWS, also GCP) — e.g., IAM reviews, misconfiguration checks, and basic remediation.
• Help maintain security tooling and automation scripts used across the team.

Application & Infrastructure Security Support

• Assist with security architecture reviews for new and existing systems under senior guidance.
• Run and interpret basic SAST/DAST scans, and help track findings through to remediation with engineering teams.

• Assist, where opportunities arise, with Kubernetes/CI-CD pipeline security and reviewing AI-driven features or LLM integrations for common risks (e.g., prompt injection, data leakage) under senior guidance — exposure to this work will grow over time, not expected on day one.

Incident Response & Testing Support

• Support incident response activities — gathering logs, documenting timelines, and assisting with remediation tasks under the direction of the Senior Security Lead.
• Assist with penetration testing and red-team exercises (internal or vendor-led), including evidence collection and findings tracking.
• Coordinate logistics with external vendors and consultants when supporting pentesting or peak-demand engagements.

Collaboration & Growth

• Work with engineering teams to communicate security findings clearly and help get fixes prioritized.
• Take on structured learning goals (certifications, tooling, frameworks) with support and mentorship from the Senior Security Lead.
• Document processes, runbooks, and findings to build the team’s institutional knowledge.
