## About the role

Join the team securing the platform that helps millions of people move beyond musculoskeletal pain. As Hinge Health's engineering organization embraces AI-assisted development — including AI-powered code generation, automated PR review workflows, agent sandboxing, and MCP gateway integrations — we need a Lead Security Engineer who will build the security guardrails, tooling, and standards that ensure we ship with confidence.

## What they're looking for

- A Security-First Thinker : You instinctively design systems that are secure by default, and you know how to balance security rigor with engineering velocity
- An AI-Savvy Engineer : You're energized (not intimidated) by the rapid adoption of AI-assisted development and see it as an opportunity to build novel security frameworks
- A Trust Builder : You communicate effectively across engineering, compliance, and leadership teams — authoring clear, plain-spoken technical proposals that drive alignment
- A Learn-it-all : You stay ahead of emerging threats and continuously evolve your approach — from adversarial ML to supply chain attacks on AI pipelines
- A Leader at All Levels : You're hands-on in code and architecture, but you also mentor others and help the team self-organize around measurable outcomes
- Bachelor's degree in a technical, engineering, or scientific field — or comparable education/experience
