Job description

About Suno

We're building the world's first creative entertainment platform, where the entire world can feel the joy and fulfillment of making music. Music is for everyone: Our users include everyone from grandmothers creating songs for their loved ones, to Grammy winners using Suno Studio, our power tool, to make the most popular hits in the world.

Building the future of entertainment requires ambition. The pace is fast, the problems are hard, and the work demands ownership and intensity. For the right people, it’s incredibly rewarding: a chance to shape a new medium, work with a small team that cares deeply about quality, make music, drink too much coffee, and build something that millions of people use to express themselves in ways that were never before possible.

Suno is the fastest growing consumer entertainment company and the leader in AI music. We are backed by leading investors including Bond Capital, Menlo Ventures, Lightspeed Venture Partners, IVP, Forerunner, Union Square Ventures, Alkeon, Quiet, Matrix Partners, Schroders Capital and, NVentures (venture arm of NVIDIA).

ABOUT THE ROLE

We're looking for a Staff or Senior Staff Technical Program Manager to build the program foundation for Suno's Security organization. Security is scaling its team, processes, technology, and programs all at once, and today there's no dedicated program function to hold that work together. You'll own the cross-functional structure that turns security priorities into programs that run and get finished. You'll start with Vulnerability Management and Security by Design, and you'll also help our IT organization set up operational structures it can own and run on its own. You'll partner closely with Engineering, Research, and Legal, and as the work grows, you'll have the chance to build a team around it.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Drive Suno's Vulnerability Management program end-to-end, covering intake, prioritization, remediation tracking, and verified closure with Engineering.

• Stand up Safety and Security by Design as a repeatable program, with clear processes, checklists, launch gates, and accountability across teams.

• Own Security's roadmap and planning artifacts, turning risk priorities into tracked plans with clear owners and milestones.

• Track incident response follow-ups and post-incident corrective actions until they're verified as resolved.

• Build audit-readiness tracking that maps requirements to owners and evidence across teams.

• Serve as the connective tissue between Security and Engineering, Research, and Legal. You'll surface blockers, sequence dependencies, and drive programs to completion.

• Partner with IT to set up processes, tracking systems, and operating cadences that IT then owns and runs independently.

• Help make security part of how Suno builds every new model and feature, in service of making creative fulfillment a daily reality for everyone.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

MUST-HAVES

• 10+ years of technical program management experience, including significant time running security, infrastructure, or platform programs in a fast-growing engineering organization.

• A track record of building programs from scratch, such as vulnerability management, secure development lifecycle, or launch review, and making them durable and repeatable.

• Enough technical depth to engage credibly with security and software engineers on vulnerabilities, remediation trade-offs, and system dependencies, plus the influence skills to drive outcomes across teams you don't manage.

NICE-TO-HAVES

• Experience supporting security compliance or audit programs (e.g. SOC 2, ISO 27001) from the program side.

• Experience setting up IT operational processes, tooling, or service management practices.

• Prior experience as the first or founding TPM in a security organization, or interest in growing into a program management leadership role as the team scales.
