Senior Security Engineer, Cloud Detection
The aim of World Foundation is both philosophical and political: to realize more inclusive, fair and just institutions of governance and of the global digital economy, including by helping achieve certain targets of U.N. Sustainable Development Goal 16 (namely, 16.4, 16.5, 16.6, 16.7, and 16.9). To that end, the Foundation serves as the steward of World, supporting and growing the network until it becomes fully self-sufficient.

World Foundation is an exempted limited guarantee foundation company incorporated in the Cayman Islands. To learn more about this type of entity, check out this Guide to the Cayman Islands Foundation Company from the Foundation’s outside counsel at the law firm, Ogier. Today, World Foundation is “memberless”; it has no owners or shareholders. It is governed by a Board with four Directors, Chris “W” Waclawek, Phillip Sippl, Weinberger Ventures GmbH (acting through its sole director, Pascal Weinberger) and a Cayman Islands based professional director. The Foundation’s founding documents specifically contemplate DAO-driven governance. The documents make it possible, through a prescribed process, for the DAO to make recommendations to the Foundation’s Board of Directors. The Board is then bound to “observe, implement, carry out, action and execute with best efforts any and all DAO Recommendations,” subject to directors’ fiduciary duties and legal requirements. World Assets Limited is a business company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands. World Foundation is the sole member and sole director of World Assets Ltd. World Assets Ltd. is the entity responsible for distributing the 75% of all Worldcoin tokens (WLD) that have been allocated to the World Network community. As such, it is solely responsible for the content of the World documentation located at whitepaper.world.org.

Skills
About the Role
You will work with security experts to leverage logs and security events from cloud-deployed applications (especially in AWS) to detect and respond to intrusion activity and attacks on cloud-hosted APIs. You will develop and deploy advanced ML and AI-based detections on log data, write Python for data engineering and analysis, and use SQL to investigate large datasets. You will create dashboards and visualizations (for example using Datadog), integrate detection logic into CI/CD and containerized deployments, participate in an on-call rotation and incident handling, collaborate with peer teams to remediate issues, and document investigations and detection logic. You will focus on building scalable detection systems that can operate on high-volume telemetry and improve automated response capabilities.
