About the role

  • As our first security hire, you'll cover a lot of ground-writing policy, reviewing code, responding to customer security questionnaires, and hands-on infrastructure work.
  • This role is a strong fit for someone who is:
  • A founder-minded builder: you're energized by creating security infrastructure from scratch, not inheriting a mature program-and you take full ownership of outcomes.

Responsibilities

  • Architect and build Intenseye's security program end-to-end: cloud infrastructure security, application security, data protection, endpoint, and identity.
  • Own our compliance roadmap-including SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and GDPR-and drive it to completion, partnering with legal, finance, and customer success.
  • Embed security into the SDLC: define secure coding standards, introduce SAST/DAST tooling, and partner with engineering to make secure-by-default the norm.
  • Build and run incident response: design our monitoring and alerting stack, write the playbooks, and lead the response when things go wrong.
  • Own IAM strategy across internal systems, cloud infrastructure, and customer-facing platforms.
  • Lead threat modeling and vulnerability management-working with engineering to prioritize and remediate across a complex, globally distributed system.
  • We are committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace where every team member feels valued and empowered.

Requirements

  • 8+ years in security engineering, with meaningful experience owning or significantly shaping a security function-not just executing within one.
  • Proven experience driving a compliance program through completion (SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, or equivalent)-not just supporting it.
  • Solid grasp of data privacy (GDPR, CCPA) and the ability to work cross-functionally with legal and GTM teams on customer-facing requirements.
  • Experience with modern security tooling: SIEM, EDR, CSPM, vulnerability scanners (e.g., Wiz, Crowdstrike, Datadog Security, or equivalents).
  • Demonstrated ability to communicate security risk at the executive level-written and verbal.
  • Experience leading a cross-functional initiative.
  • Prior startup experience is required- high ownership, high velocity, pragmatic judgment.
  • Experience securing physical hardware deployments: device hardening, firmware security, secure boot, and managing the security lifecycle of hardware deployed in customer environments.

Nice to have

  • experience with AI/ML platform security, industrial IoT, or edge computing environments;
  • Intenseye is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer.
  • We know that not everyone will meet 100% of the listed qualifications, and that's OK.
  • Research shows that individuals from underrepresented groups often hesitate to apply unless they meet every criterion.
  • network security, IAM, secrets management, container security (Kubernetes/Docker), and cloud-native threat detection.
  • Deep hands-on expertise in cloud security (GCP strongly preferred): network security, IAM, secrets management, container security (Kubernetes/Docker), and cloud-native threat detection.

Skills

  • cloud infrastructure security, application security, data protection, endpoint, and identity.

Compensation

  • $160k-$200k
