Description For Information Security Apprentice Engineer

LinkedIn, the world's largest professional network, is offering an exciting opportunity through their REACH apprenticeship program for aspiring Information Security Engineers. This program is specifically designed for individuals from non-traditional backgrounds who are passionate about building a career in security engineering.

The REACH program is a unique multi-year apprenticeship (1-5 years) that provides hands-on experience in technical roles while building the skills needed to become a successful Engineer at LinkedIn. The program emphasizes that top talent can come from anywhere, regardless of educational background or professional experience, making it ideal for self-taught individuals, career changers, coding bootcamp graduates, or those re-entering the workforce.

As an Information Security Apprentice Engineer, you'll be integrated into LinkedIn's engineering teams, working on real security engineering and operational challenges. You'll receive dedicated mentorship from experienced engineers while developing a deep understanding of enterprise-scale information security. The role offers a competitive salary range of $82,000 to $109,000 per year.

Key aspects of the role include:

  • Hands-on experience with security operations, incident response, and detection engineering
  • Learning opportunities in understanding enterprise security architecture and controls
  • Practical experience in developing and implementing security solutions
  • Dedicated time for personal technical development using both internal and external resources
  • Exposure to modern security tools and practices

The ideal candidate should have completed a Year Up Internship at LinkedIn and demonstrate a strong interest in security engineering through personal projects, scripting experience, or problem-solving activities. Knowledge of basic security concepts, operating systems, and common attack patterns is beneficial but not required, as the program focuses on learning and development.

This hybrid role offers the flexibility to work both remotely and from LinkedIn's office, promoting a balance between collaboration and individual work. LinkedIn's culture emphasizes trust, care, inclusion, and fun, providing an ideal environment for apprentices to grow and succeed in their security engineering career.

Join LinkedIn's REACH program to transform your passion for security into a rewarding career while contributing to protecting one of the world's largest professional networks.
