## Job Description

## Responsibilities
- Own the security engineering foundation across AI security governance, application security, cloud infrastructure, detection and response, and identity management.
- Threat-model AI agent surfaces for prompt injection, tool misuse, and authorization boundaries.
- Build AI-native security capabilities, including detection triage, compliance evidence collection, and threat-modeling assistance.
- Lead application security through threat modeling, secure code review, SAST/SCA/DAST in CI, secure development lifecycle design, dependency management, and secrets management.
- Review production code in Go, TypeScript, Python, or similar languages.
- Secure AWS cloud infrastructure across IAM partitioning, least-privilege access, just-in-time elevation, cross-account trust, KMS boundaries, service control policies, Kubernetes pod security, egress filtering, and Terraform.
- Build SIEM/SOAR pipelines from log sources through triage, write correlation rules, enable AI-powered triage, establish on-call rotation, and create incident response runbooks.
- Drive SSO coverage, access reviews, and just-in-time elevation in partnership with IT.
- Design and implement controls supporting SOC 2, PCI DSS, and ISO evidence requirements.
- Lead technical responses to third-party questionnaires and partner security reviews.
- Set strategic direction while remaining hands-on with detection rules, pull-request reviews, hardening commits, and feature threat modeling.

## Requirements
- 8+ years of experience in security engineering, including building a security function from an early stage.
- Experience building and shipping security controls rather than only identifying issues.
- Production code review experience in Go, TypeScript, Python, or similar languages.
- Detection engineering experience, including building a SIEM or SOAR pipeline from log sources through triage.
- Deep AWS security knowledge, including IAM policy design, multi-account strategies, and cloud privilege escalation.
- Experience operating within PCI DSS scope and shipping controls that withstand a real audit.
- Strong judgment about when to fix issues directly versus assigning them to responsible teams with SLAs.
- Comfort using AI tools to scale a small security team within established architecture and review processes.

## Nice-to-Haves
- Experience as the first or an early security hire at a high-growth fintech or marketplace.
- Experience at a fast-scaling company such as Ramp, Mercury, Stripe, or Whatnot.
- Experience securing AI and ML systems, model pipelines, or AI-assisted development workflows.
- Familiarity with card issuing, payment processing, or financial services infrastructure.
- Terraform and Helm fluency, including hands-on CI/CD security integration.
- Open-source contributions, security research, or conference speaking.

## Compensation and Benefits
- Competitive compensation and equity packages.
- Flexible paid time off.
- Fully covered healthcare, including dependent coverage.
- Access to One Medical and an optional FSA.
- 20 weeks of paid parental leave for primary caregivers and 8 weeks for all new parents.
