Reporting to the VP of Engineering, you will lead a dedicated security team and partner with our external security provider (Divoro) to build an engineering-led security culture. This is a "Player-Coach" role: you will set the strategy and lead the team, but you are expected to stay in the details—reviewing our overall cloud security, triaging CVEs, and ensuring our infrastructure and software supply chain remains secure and compliant.

Engineering-Led Security (DevSecOps): Oversee the integration of SAST, DAST, and SCA tools within our GitHub pipelines. Monitor remediation progress to ensure SLOs are met. Set the technical standards for vulnerability remediation and provide architectural guidance to the broader engineering org. Infrastructure & Cloud Hardening: Direct the security architecture for our AWS environments. Implement AWS Security best practices. Review and occasionally author Terraform modules to ensure "Security-as-Code" is the baseline for all deployments. Technical Compliance & Privacy Support: Support our SOC2 Type 2, ISO 27001/27701, GDPR, and CCPA initiatives. Automate evidence collection to ensure technical controls are functioning as intended. Team & Partner Management: Mentor and grow your internal and external security team; act as the lead technical escalation point for complex security bugs. Strategically direct our external security partners to scale our security operations and specialty projects. Practical AI & Data Guardrails: Establish the patterns and guardrails for safe AI/LLM integration, focusing on secure data handling and access controls. Who you are: The Technical Manager: 7+ years in Security/Engineering, with a history of leading teams in high-growth SaaS environments.

AI Proponent: Understands AI, Uses AI for automation, Understands the risks of AI Systems Thinker: You prioritize risk based on actual business impact and exploitability, not just tool output.
