About the role
Partner with product teams on security early. Work with PMs and feature teams to understand their upcoming roadmaps, identify security requirements and threat-model implications before designs are locked, and make sure those needs are visible, prioritized, and resourced. Align Security Engineering with product strategy. Translate feature-team needs into prioritized security work, and make Security Engineering's priorities legible to the rest of the company so tradeoffs are made in the open.

What they're looking for
- Deep, demonstrable knowledge of security fundamentals: cryptography, authentication protocols, identity and access management, zero-knowledge and end-to-end encrypted system design, and threat modeling
- Fluency in the credential and identity landscape, including passkeys, WebAuthn/FIDO, and the standards shaping how people sign in
- A track record of earning credibility with security engineering teams, not just working alongside them
- The ability to read and reason through technical specifications, security audits, and cryptographic design documents
- Experience making and defending risk-based tradeoffs, and explaining them clearly to engineers, executives, and customers
- A history of shipping security features that users actually adopt, and of using friction and adoption data to improve them
