Responsibilities

• Hire, build, and grow a new team of software engineers, setting the bar for technical quality and inclusive team culture from day one.
• Own the design and delivery of a platform that continuously evaluates code changes for security risk, routes the small fraction needing human attention, and automatically clears the rest.
• Work directly with the security engineers who handle escalated changes, building the queues, context, and tooling that make their reviews fast.
• Define the technical roadmap, make build-versus-integrate calls, and negotiate the interfaces with adjacent platform and telemetry teams your system depends on.
• Build the developer-facing experience: clear, trustworthy visibility into what was evaluated, what happened, and why, with as close to zero required action as possible.
• Establish the operational fundamentals: monitoring, calibration, on-call, and the feedback loops that keep automated decisions accurate as the code and the threat landscape change.
• Represent the team to senior leadership, and communicate progress, risk, and tradeoffs candidly.
