Requirements

  • 10+ years in software, product, or application security, with ownership of complex products or platforms.
  • Deep expertise in secure architecture and system design for cloud‑native or distributed systems, including modern authz/authn and defense‑in‑depth patterns.
  • Experience driving org‑level risk management and security programs (secure SDLC, AI SDLC, vulnerability management) from design through rollout.
  • Strong hands‑on familiarity with cloud‑native environments (containers, Kubernetes, public cloud) and associated security controls.
  • Experience with security compliance frameworks (e.g., SOC 2, ISO 27001, SLSA) and translating controls into practical engineering work.
  • Ability to automate security workflows in at least one language (e.g., Go, Python, Shell) and integrate them into CI/CD.
  • Proven ability to influence senior stakeholders and drive alignment across teams through clear, concise communication in a remote‑first environment.
  • High bar for ownership, accountability, and adaptability — you anticipate risks, navigate ambiguity, and leave systems and teams better than you found them.
