About the role

  • At most companies, a security failure means downtime.
  • Here, it means a real person's identity is compromised.
  • The engineers who can move fast on both are the ones this role is for.

Responsibilities

  • it's making breaches more common and more damaging, and it's letting us build systems in-house that used to be out of reach, changing how we think about build vs. buy in real time.
  • AI is raising the bar on both sides: it's making breaches more common and more damaging, and it's letting us build systems in-house that used to be out of reach, changing how we think about build vs. buy in real time.
  • The team runs more like infrastructure than a typical security org: not in a silo, a lot of what we ship is core product code, and you'll be building alongside other engineering teams, not just configuring what they've already built.

Requirements

  • Experience with IAM, authn/authz frameworks, or identity protocols (OAuth, SAML, OIDC)
  • Familiarity with software supply chain security, secure SDLC, or AI/ML security risks

Skills

  • The framework that encrypts hundreds of distinct columns with sensitive data

Company info

  • Small and high trust by design.
  • High ownership from day one.
  • This isn't a team where your work disappears into a large org, and it isn't a team where you just configure what someone else built.
  • The team's seniority means you'll be talking every day with experienced engineers who genuinely want to collaborate and teach, both within security and across the product and platform teams we partner with.
  • Everyone on the team got into security through a different path, and you don't need a security background to be a strong fit here.

  • Relocation assistance available.
