Our Mission

At Omnea, we’re reinventing how enterprise businesses operate, starting with the most painful parts: procurement – where a single purchase can drag on for months, trigger 50+ emails, and pull in Finance, Legal, Security, and IT just to get something approved.

We’ve raised $75M from Khosla Ventures, Insight Partners, and Accel to change that. Our AI-native platform connects every person, step, and system so buying is fast, safe, and efficient – one place to request, automated approvals and renewals, real-time supplier risk, and complete spend visibility.

The opportunity is massive. Every enterprise on the planet has this problem and nobody has solved it. We’ve 10x’d ARR to double-digit millions in 18 months and are trusted by global enterprises like Spotify, MongoDB, Monzo, and Albertsons. We’re now the 4th fastest growing startup in Europe & the Sunday Times' #1 Best Medium Sized Tech Company To Work for.

Our team previously scaled Tessian (cybersecurity tech, backed by Sequoia, Balderton, Accel, acquired post-Series C), and our team includes ex-founders operators who’ve grown unicorns, shipped world-class products, and executed at the highest levels. You’ll work alongside leaders like Ben, Abs, Sabrina, and Rebe.

Why We Need a Platform Security Engineer Now

Omnea takes security seriously. In an era where exploits and supply chain attacks are being discovered and conducted faster than ever before, it’s vital that we stay on the cutting edge of keeping our systems and our customers’ data safe.

Hardening our systems is only part of the solution. As we scale out to more industries with their diverse security requirements, we want another individual who can help us attain and maintain higher levels of compliance certification.

What We're Looking For

We're hiring at both Level 3 (Senior) and Level 4 (Staff). For calibration, candidates typically bring 5+ years of platform engineering experience in high-growth, cloud-native SaaS environments, but we care more about impact than years. We’re looking for that “T”-shaped skillset where the candidate’s depth is in Cloud Security.

Furthermore, the ideal candidate will have a product engineering background but caught the bug for security and cares deeply about enabling people to work fast, safely. Finally, we’re looking for someone who sees security as an enabler and force-multiplier and answers questions with a “Yes, here’s how we do it securely” attitude as opposed to the flat “No” security teams are too often renowned for.

What You'll Do

• Implement and take ownership of our Security roadmap. Working with the Platform Lead, a successful candidate will steadily take ownership over the Platform Security Roadmap, leading implementations and experiments to level up Omnea’s security posture.

• Own Security Tooling. From safe-chain plugins to SAST/DAST tooling, we want someone who’s keen to get stuck in, onboard, and evolve our tooling to ensure our posture stays at the bleeding edge.

• Deliver Compliance Programs.
