## About the role

We are hiring a Staff Product Security Architect to join our Security Platforms and Architecture organization at GitLab.

## What they're looking for

- Partner with engineering and product leadership across GitLab, developing enough context in their domains to anticipate security problems rather than react to them
- Lead security architecture and design work for strategic initiatives, and provide direction to the cross-functional teams delivering them
- Identify, assess, and prioritise systemic security risks, and act as Security Owner for high-priority items in the Product Security Risk Register, co-executing remediation with the teams who own the code
- Codify recurring security decisions into reusable artifacts — guardrails, standards, design patterns,skills, and reference threat models — delivered into developer and AI coding tool workflows
- Build proofs of concept and prototypes to unblock engineering teams and shorten the distance between a security requirement and a working implementation
- Conduct security architecture reviews for large or strategic projects, and coordinate with Application Security so that review coverage is comprehensive and correctly prioritised
