Job description

Join us in building the future of finance.

Our mission is to democratize finance for all. An estimated $124 trillion of assets will be inherited by younger generations in the next two decades. The largest transfer of wealth in human history. If you’re ready to be at the epicenter of this historic cultural and financial shift, keep reading.

About the team + role

We are building an elite team, applying frontier technologies to the world’s biggest financial problems. We’re looking for bold thinkers. Sharp problem-solvers. Builders who are wired to make an impact. Robinhood isn’t a place for complacency, it’s where ambitious people do the best work of their careers. We’re a high-performing, fast-moving team with ethics at the center of everything we do. Expectations are high, and so are the rewards.

Robinhood's Enterprise Security team is at the forefront of AI security, designing safety guardrails for cutting-edge AI and driving modern enterprise-wide security tooling standards. As a Senior Corporate Security Engineer on our Corporate Systems team, you will operate at the center of our enterprise security infrastructure, maintaining the control plane for user-facing security tooling and building innovative solutions that keep our employees and platform secure!

In this role, you will combine security engineering, systems administration, and hands‑on AI agent development to drive key automation and safety initiatives. Joining a lean, high‑impact team, you will have high visibility and direct empowerment to take strategic initiative, solve complex technical challenges, and shape Robinhood's AI security posture.

This role is based in our Menlo Park or Bellevue office(s), with in‑person attendance expected at least 3 days per week.

At Robinhood, we believe in the power of in‑person work to accelerate progress, spark innovation, and strengthen community. Our office experience is intentional, energizing, and designed to fully support high‑performing teams.

What you’ll do

• Build, maintain, and evolve enterprise security tools that power key user‑facing security flows, including endpoint security, login/authentication, and security telemetry.
• Secure AI interactions across the company by designing safety guardrails and integrating agentic tools into enterprise workflows.
• Automate evidence‑gathering processes for Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) and internal/external regulatory audits.
• Support enterprise vulnerability management programs and maintain operational resilience and uptime across core systems.
• Tackle evolving enterprise security challenges, such as protecting against active persistent threats (APTs) and securing the digital footprint of our executives.
• Collaborate cross‑functionally with Security Operations, GRC, Legal, and IT engineering partners to maintain a seamless, high‑trust security environment.

What you bring

• 5+ years of professional experience in information security, combining security engineering, IT systems administration, and enterprise infrastructure.
• Proven experience in one or more of the following: managing and securing modern identity systems (e.g., Okta), or deep experience blending security engineering with systems/infrastructure engineering. (We’re hiring for two closely related roles on this team — identity platform depth is a strong plus for one, broader security+ systems generalist range for the other.)
• Exposure to or hands‑on experience with AI tools and agent workflows (e.g., OpenAI, Claude, Cursor, or custom API integrations).
• Practical experience working within cloud environments (specifically Google Cloud Platform) and modern software development processes.
• Broad security generalist skill set, including device compliance enforcement, binary/plugin/extension evaluation, behavior tracing, vulnerability management, and security policy enforcement.
• Strong ownership mentality with an adaptable "builder" mindset, capable of driving automation and technical initiatives independently.

What we offer

• Challenging, high‑impact work to grow your career.
• Performance‑driven compensation with multipliers for outsized impact, bonus programs, equity ownership, and 401(k) matching.
• Best‑in‑class benefits to fuel your work, including 100% paid health insurance for employees with 90% coverage for dependents.
• Lifestyle wallet — a highly flexible benefits spending account for wellness, learning, and more.
• Employer‑paid life & disability insurance, fertility benefits, and mental health benefits.
• Time off to recharge including company holidays, paid time off, sick time, parental leave, and more!
• Exceptional office experience with catered meals, events, and comfortable workspaces.
