What is a Security Engineer at Major League Baseball (MLB)?
When most people think of Major League Baseball (MLB), they picture historic ballparks, roaring crowds, and legendary athletic feats. Behind the scenes, however, MLB is a world-class technology and media powerhouse. The league operates massive digital platforms, including streaming services that deliver high-definition live video to millions of concurrent viewers, complex ticketing systems, and highly sensitive player and business databases. As a Security Engineer—specifically within the Edge Security Platform team—you are the frontline defender of this digital empire.
Your role is critical to ensuring that millions of fans can stream games, buy tickets, and interact with MLB digital products securely and without interruption. You will design, build, and maintain the security infrastructure that sits at the edge of MLB's networks. This includes protecting application delivery pathways, mitigating distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, managing Web Application Firewalls (WAF), and securing Content Delivery Networks (CDNs). Without your expertise, the high-availability digital experiences that fans rely on could be compromised by malicious actors.
Working as a Security Engineer at MLB offers a unique blend of enterprise-scale challenges and a fast-paced, highly collaborative environment. You will work on cutting-edge cloud and edge infrastructure, solving security problems at a scale that few other organization-types can match. It is an inspiring opportunity to combine a passion for technology with the pride of supporting America's pastime.
