About the role

Our problems span safe deployment of AI agents, multi-party workflow automation, identity, risk, and large-scale data, and because we handle sensitive financial information for businesses across the economy, trust is the product.
Since we're an early startup, you'll have to be prepared to wear many hats; most of your time will be spent on application and product security, but you'll also reach into cloud infrastructure, detection and response, and compliance as the work demands.
Your impact will be felt across team culture, our customers, and the economy.

Own application and product security end to end - threat modeling, secure design and code review, and partnering with engineers to ship features that are secure by default rather than secured after the fact.
Build the security function from the ground up: set the roadmap, establish best practices, choose the tooling, and define the standards the rest of engineering will build on.
Find, prioritize, and drive remediation of vulnerabilities across the product and our infrastructure and build the guardrails that keep them from coming back.
We've used technologies like Vue, GraphQL, and even built our own DSL for defining roles and permissions.
What matters most is the impact you create and the risk you reduce, not the specific tools you use.
Despite the massive scale of this market, most businesses manage their trading relationships and commerce activities using outdated methods like paper forms, PDFs, emails, faxes, phone calls, and spreadsheets, making processes slow and inefficient.

5+ years in security engineering, with deep application/product security expertise and the range to operate across cloud, infrastructure, and detection when needed.
Experience working in an early-stage engineering team or a fast-growing company, solving hard, ambiguous problems with a strong bias for action.

Make security a part of engineering culture, to help the whole team move fast but securely.
