- Partner with engineering teams to secure AI agent workflows, protect data privacy, and address AI-specific vulnerabilities.
- Automate detection and vulnerability management processes to reduce manual security work.
- Lead incident response and turn incidents into lasting improvements to systems and processes.
- Support compliance and customer trust work, including SOC 2, ISO 27001, and bank security requirements.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- Four to eight years of application security experience, including hands-on product security work such as secure code reviews, threat modeling, penetration testing, or security tooling.
- A bachelor's degree in a technical field and strong software engineering fundamentals.
- A current individual contributor who enjoys hands-on technical work and has primarily focused on application or product security, rather than GRC, IT, network security, or detection operations.
- Experience working in a fast-growing startup or hypergrowth environment; fintech or regulated B2B SaaS experience is valuable.
- Familiarity with TypeScript or JavaScript, AWS or GCP, DevSecOps, secure SDLC practices, IAM, and AI or LLM security.
- Cloud security fundamentals; experience with SOC 2, ISO 27001, or building a security program is a plus.
