About the role
- Plaud Inc. is a Delaware-incorporated, San Francisco-based company pushing the boundary of human-AI intelligence through a hardware-software combination.
- With full ISO 27001, ISO 27701, SOC 2, GDPR, EN18031, and HIPAA compliances, Plaud is committed to the highest standards of data security and privacy protection.
- Will demo last-2-weeks AI usage during interview.
Responsibilities
- You will own both the detection & response layer and the cloud infrastructure security foundation at Plaud - two domains that must operate in lockstep to deliver SOC 2 Type II audit readiness by Q4 2026.
- Cloud & Infrastructure Security - Remediate credential exposure across AWS/GCP production environments, deploy and tune CSPM across all accounts, embed IaC security gates (Checkov/Terraform) into CI/CD, and implement Zero Standing Privileges via JIT/CIEM.
- Incident Response - Own the IR lifecycle end-to-end: develop playbooks across a minimum of 4 incident categories, lead cross-functional response for P1/P2 events, and drive MTTD to ≤60 minutes.
- Security Reporting & Risk Governance - Publish monthly security reports to leadership, deliver H1 risk governance reports, and maintain vulnerability SLA compliance ≥90% with clear remediation tracking.
- Proven ability to build security infrastructure from zero: tool selection, baseline configuration, and policy definition without inheriting a mature program or existing runbook.
Requirements
- Strong working knowledge of MITRE ATT&CK, CIS Benchmarks (L1/L2), cloud-native security tooling (AWS Security Hub, GCP SCC, or equivalent CSPM), and log source integration across cloud and endpoint layers.
- Familiarity with SOC 2 TII control requirements - specifically CC6 (logical access), CC7 (monitoring & detection), and the operational evidence standards expected by a third-party auditor.
Skills
- Plaud is a bootstrapped, skyrocketing, profitable company with a $250M revenue run rate achieved in just three years.
- Define the next-gen paradigm for human-AI interaction.
- Work with passionate teammates who value innovation, collaboration, and customer success.
- Grow your career in a culture that champions continuous learning and fast career development.
- Market-competitive compensation, global exposure, and a vibrant, creativity-fueled work atmosphere.
Compensation
- Team & Culture Annual company offsites, team events, and a culture that values craftsmanship, ownership, and velocity.
Benefits
- Meaningful Ownership An Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) that gives a real stake in Plaud's long-term success.
Company info
