Role overview
At Allstate, great things happen when our people work together to protect families and their belongings from life’s uncertainties. And for more than 90 years, our innovative drive has kept us a step ahead of our customers’ evolving needs. From advocating for seat belts, air bags and graduated driving laws, to being an industry leader in pricing sophistication, telematics, and, more recently, device and identity protection.
Your role in the team
The Product Security Engineering organization is responsible for designing, building, and operating enterprise security controls as software products. The group applies modern software engineering practices to create scalable, reliable, and developer‑friendly security capabilities that are embedded directly into the enterprise technology ecosystem, enabling secure‑by‑default behaviors while minimizing friction for product and platform teams.
Product Security Engineers are software engineers who own the full software development lifecycle — from design and implementation through deployment and production support. They write and maintain production code, operate their services in real‑world environments, and are accountable for the reliability, adoption, and effectiveness of the security controls they deliver. Success in this role is measured through outcomes such as control adoption, system reliability, and meaningful reduction of security risk.
Key Responsibilities
-
Design, build, and operate enterprise security controls as software products that integrate directly into the SDLC and core enterprise platforms
-
Own security control capabilities end‑to‑end, including architecture, implementation, deployment, and ongoing operational support in production
-
Write, test, and maintain high‑quality production code while meeting delivery and reliability expectations as a software engineer
-
Apply engineering best practices such as test‑driven development, paired programming, and continuous integration and deployment
-
Contribute to high‑level and low‑level system and component designs with a focus on scalability, reliability, and security outcomes
-
Continuously evaluate and adopt new technologies, frameworks, and patterns to improve the
