About the role

  • Nova operates inside the systems that run global business, with broad access and powerful capabilities; the security work is technically deep and central to the product.

Responsibilities

  • Own platform security architecture.
  • Lead our internal red team.
  • You'll lead and extend our red team work - probing access controls and privilege boundaries, testing agent action boundaries (prompt injection, tool-use abuse, sandbox escape), validating tenant isolation under realistic attack patterns, and stress-testing our auth flows under adversarial pressure.
  • You'll own how identity propagates from the customer's IdP through Nova into their SAP systems.
  • You'll be the technical voice in the room with their CISOs, security architects, and DPOs - translating their requirements into platform changes and Nova's design into language their teams can defend internally.
  • You'll lead this research and shape it into product.
  • You're fluent in the compliance frameworks customers care about (SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, CCPA) - not as the goal, but as a baseline you can drive efficiently before building well past it.

Requirements

  • You have informed opinions on AI security: prompt injection, agent action boundaries, tool-use vulnerabilities, sandbox escape, and what changes when agents have persistent infrastructure access.
  • 5+ years of security engineering, security architecture, or offensive security work
  • Familiarity with SAP, ABAP, or enterprise application security generally

Nice to have

  • You have a track record of public technical output - writing, talks, CVEs, open-source contributions. (Strong plus, not required.)

Skills

  • Raise our internal security baseline.
  • SSO, deployment pipelines, secrets in CI/CD, code review controls, vendor onboarding, internal access.
  • Partner with customer security teams.
  • Push the frontier on offensive and defensive AI for SAP.
  • Represent Nova on security in the SAP community.
  • Write, speak, publish.
  • Security at the AI-meets-SAP intersection is uncharted territory, and there's real work to do in defining the field.

Compensation

  • We offer competitive compensation, meaningful equity, and full health, dental, and vision coverage.

  • You'll harden the security model of the platform across cloud and (in the future) on-prem deployments - isolation between customers and environments, identity and access policy, secrets and key management, and network controls.
  • You'll set the standards, drive the implementation, and lead Nova's adherence to the compliance frameworks customers expect (SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, CCPA).
  • Our enterprise customers run some of the most sophisticated security organizations in the world.
  • We use Nova to help customers find weaknesses in their own systems, and we use Nova to study Nova.
