## About the role

We're looking for a Senior Software Security Engineer to own security across our enterprise SaaS platform -- from the design of our deployed applications to the compliance programs that earn the trust of large brands. We handle sensitive social and customer data at scale, and our customers expect enterprise-grade security and rigorous proof of it.

## What they're looking for

- 5+ years in security engineering, application/product security, or a related role at a software company
- Strong application and cloud security fundamentals, able to reason about the security of real production systems and AI workloads, not just policy
- Hands-on experience leading or operating a compliance program (SOC 2, ISO 27001, or similar) end to end
- Solid programming skills to build security tooling and automation, and to work credibly alongside engineers
- Comfortable operating in fast-moving startup environments with high ownership and autonomy
