📋 Description

• Build and evolve secure frameworks, guardrails, and library-level controls that make common vulnerability classes harder to introduce. • Design security controls for AI-assisted development — including reusable rule packs and skills that shape how engineers and coding agents generate, review, and ship code. • Embed security into the workflows engineers already use. • Drive product security reviews for new launches and major architectural changes. • Identify and eliminate systemic security debt. • Shape strategy, influence architecture, and drive execution across teams.

🎯 Requirements

• 8+ years of experience in software engineering, product security, or application security, with at least 2 years operating at a staff level of scope and impact. • Proficiency in one or more languages (Go, Python, JS/TS). • Experience designing, building, and operating production-quality systems and developer-facing platforms. • Experience building secure frameworks, libraries, or guardrails that improve security across many teams at once. • Demonstrated ability to integrate security into developer workflows: CI/CD, code review, release processes, and internal platforms. • Clear communicator who can explain technical detail and business impact to both engineers and leadership. • Comfortable in fast-moving environments where AI-assisted development is reshaping how software is built and reviewed. • Experience with vulnerability discovery and remediation pipelines, including bug bounty or researcher-reported findings. • Track record of mentoring engineers and raising the technical bar across a security or platform engineering org.
