Role overview
Set the technical direction for product security across a software platform, and turn security findings into practical fixes and safer engineering workflows. The role combines hands‑on application security with threat modeling, automation, and close partnership with engineering and product teams; it also helps shape customer‑facing product decisions.
Responsibilities
- Establish and execute security strategy across software supply chains, first‑party code, runtime monitoring, and AI agent protections.
- Investigate and prioritize vulnerabilities, drive remediation, and use internal security tooling to validate findings and fixes.
- Build security automation and engineering paths that help teams catch and prevent insecure code before it is merged.
- Conduct threat models and design reviews, and advise engineering and product teams on implementation choices and roadmap priorities.
- Evaluate how LLMs and agents can support security work, including testing tools and measuring their limitations.
- Share useful practices and product feedback with customers and the broader security community.
Requirements
- More than ten years of application or product security experience, including technical leadership at staff or principal level.
- A record of building and measuring security tools or automation used across an engineering organization.
- Experience influencing product or platform roadmaps and getting security improvements adopted by other teams or customers.
- Hands‑on experience applying LLMs or agents to security problems, such as evaluating ways to find, validate, fix, or prevent vulnerabilities.
- Deep skills in threat modeling and secure architecture.
- Able to set direction and influence senior engineering, product, and customer stakeholders without relying on formal authority.
- Comfortable investigating root causes, driving fixes, and setting priorities in an ambiguous environment.
Nice to have
- Experience securing large build systems or CI/CD environments, especially Bazel monorepos; security research in vulnerability analysis, program analysis, or static analysis; or public work such as talks, publications, and open‑source projects.
