We're looking for an experienced security leader to lead and mature the Product Security function here at 1Password. You will be responsible for:

• Application Security, overseeing our SDLC program.
• Data and Device Security, ensuring that 1Password continues to deliver secure solutions that meet our customers needs.

How We’re Using AI Today

Our Engineering, Product, and Design teams are thoughtfully integrating AI across the full software and product development lifecycle to move faster without sacrificing quality or security. In practice, that looks like engineers using AI-assisted coding tools to accelerate reviews and catch bugs earlier, product managers synthesizing user research at scale, and designers rapidly prototyping and iterating with AI-generated mockups. We approach AI the same way we approach security: with clear principles, human accountability at every consequential decision point, and rigorous evaluation before anything ships to customers.

This is a remote opportunity within Canada and the US.

What We're Looking For

• 9+ years of progressive experience in security, with at least 5+ years leading security teams/programs at scale.
• Education: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Computer Engineering, or related fields; or equivalent work experience

• Experience overseeing Security Research activities and engaging the security research community.
• Strong track record of embedding security and privacy into engineering processes and influencing product development.
• Proven experience leading security teams in high-growth technology or security-focused companies.
