Information Security Analyst at Wikimedia Foundation, Inc. (San Francisco, CA) (allows remote)

Summary


We are looking for a smart security practitioner with an interest in large scale systems. You understand the importance of testing and documentation, and common pitfalls in developing secure web applications. You must have a passion for the WMF mission. We do (almost) everything publicly, and volunteers can add arbitrary JavaScript to our site. That should both frighten and thrill you.


Privacy is one of the core values of the Wikimedia Foundation and you will be joining the team responsible for providing technical and governance security solutions to ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of Wikimedia applications.  This is your opportunity to participate in and provide security and privacy solutions so together we can create a world in which everyone can freely share in the sum of all knowledge.  


This is what you will be doing:



  • Review security controls, policies and procedures and provide recommendations for the adaption of new technologies or policies.  

  • Conduct internal and external security audits

  • Provide support for security incidents or events

  • Evaluate current organizational risk and threat profile

  • Identify improvement areas and provide organization wide security awareness training.  

  • Work with teams to ensure they make safe, compliant, design and architectural decisions

  • Participate in privacy initiatives

  • Participate in operational security initiatives


You’ll need these skills and experience:



  • 5+ years experience as part of an Information Security team

  • CISSP/GIAC

  • Experience in policy creation and enforcement

  • Experience with Threat Modeling and Risk Assessments

  • Experience in Incident Response

  • Bachelor’s degree in CS or related field or the equivalent in work related experience


Pluses



  • Wikimedia community experience

  • Interest in/passion for all things open source



The Wikimedia Foundation is... 



...the nonprofit organization that supports Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia free knowledge projects. Our vision is a world in which every single human can freely share in the sum of all knowledge. We believe that everyone has the potential to contribute something to our shared knowledge, and that everyone should be able to access that knowledge, free of interference. We host the Wikimedia projects, build software experiences for reading, contributing, and sharing Wikimedia content, support the volunteer communities and partners who make Wikimedia possible, and advocate for policies that enable Wikimedia and free knowledge to thrive. The Wikimedia Foundation is a charitable, not-for-profit organization that relies on donations. We receive financial support from millions of individuals around the world, with an average donation of about $15. We also receive donations through institutional grants and gifts. The Wikimedia Foundation is a United States 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization with offices in San Francisco, California, USA.
