Job summary

1Password is hiring a Senior Manager, Infrastructure Security to lead the team securing our cloud-native platform. You will set direction for Infrastructure Security, drive risk-based work, and partner with Platform Security, Threat Operations, and infrastructure engineering to strengthen our security posture.

You will guide a hands-on engineering team, balance ambitious delivery with risk management, and partner with engineering to embed security into systems from the start.

Qualifications

• 8+ years of experience in security engineering, with at least 3 years directly managing a team.
• Deep production experience securing a major cloud platform, including identity and trust boundaries, workload isolation, Kubernetes, and infrastructure as code.
• Experience building or improving privileged access programs, including how people and workloads access the systems and resources they need.
• Experience implementing network segmentation, WAF, and zero‑trust approaches at scale.
• Hands‑on experience securing AI and agentic systems in production, including workload identities, access to infrastructure and data, and security boundaries designed to limit the impact of a compromised agent.
• Demonstrated ability to review technical work, identify gaps, and raise the quality of engineering outcomes through effective technical oversight and coaching.
• Ability to navigate ambiguous, complex problems, establish priorities within an area of ownership, and define technical direction without relying on prescribed solutions.
• Proven ability to influence engineering teams through technical credibility, a track record of delivering results, and the development of high‑performing engineers.
• Experience using AI to improve individual and team effectiveness, modeling responsible adoption, and ensuring AI‑assisted work is reviewed for accuracy, sound judgment, and impact.

Responsibilities

• Set the strategic direction and priorities for Infrastructure Security, and own delivery end to end, aligned with the Platform Security strategy.
• Define clear goals and metrics so progress is measurable and trade‑offs can be argued with evidence.
• Lead delivery across concurrent workstreams in cloud security, identity and access management, and container security.
• Build, coach, and grow a team of security engineers: set clear expectations for what good looks like, and address both strong performance and off‑track performance early rather than waiting for issues to surface.
• Work closely with platform and infrastructure engineering teams so security is designed into systems from the start.
• Help define how we secure AI and automated systems, including the identities they run as, how their access is scoped, and where the boundaries around them sit.
• Partner with the other Platform Security teams and with Threat Operations so findings reach the right owner and get remediated inside an agreed SLA.
• Make the calls Infrastructure Security needs, and bring in your peers and manager on decisions that reach beyond the team.
• Make sure security keeps up with company growth without slowing teams down.
