Job summary

Faire is seeking a Senior Enterprise Security Engineer to protect our corporate environment across endpoints, networks, identity, and SaaS, and to shape our AI governance approach with practical controls and clear guidance.

You will work hands-on, partnering with IT, Engineering, Legal, People, Finance, and Product to embed secure-by-default practices, run security programs, and mentor teams while growing influence across the company.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of hands-on enterprise security experience.
• Experience in two or more areas: endpoint, network, data security, security operations.
• Experience with AI governance, platform management, or MCP security review.
• Strong written and verbal communication; ability to influence others.

• Partner with IT teams to harden endpoint management, corporate infrastructure, identity services, and networking.
• Design and implement controls that protect company information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse.
• Support and help run our endpoint detection and response platform, email security stack, and phishing simulation and awareness programs.
• Build the guardrails and enablement that let teams experiment with AI quickly without creating new exposure, partnering with Engineering rather than duplicating their work.
• Advise employees on securing endpoints, office AV, and network gear, and publish clear runbooks.
• Build and deliver training that grows a culture of security, accountability, and practical awareness.
• Track emerging threats, including AI‑specific risks, and make recommendations to improve our posture.
