## About the role

We're hiring a hands-on security leader to own Allium's security program and employee IT environment. You'll set priorities, implement controls, and partner with Engineering and business teams to protect the systems and data our company depends on. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Typically 6+ years of relevant security engineering, infrastructure security, or corporate security experience, with evidence of independently owning meaningful security improvements
- Recent hands-on experience implementing controls in cloud-based environments. You can investigate a technical issue yourself and work effectively with the engineers who own production systems
- Depth across several relevant areas, including identity, cloud or application security, detection and response, endpoint security, or software supply-chain security. You know when specialist support is needed
- Experience building or improving a security program at a growing technology company, including making tradeoffs with limited time and resources
- Practical judgment about AI-enabled tools: where they can help, how their access should be controlled, and how to validate their behavior and output
- Clear communication with engineers, business leaders, customers, and providers. You can explain a risk, recommend a proportionate response, and follow through
