About the role

Simbe deploys AI-powered robots across enterprise retail at scale. Winning and retaining those accounts requires a security posture that matches the sophistication of the customers we serve — and the complexity of what we build. This role owns that posture end to end: from the laptops on employees' desks to the robots operating on store floors.

What they're looking for

  • 8+ years across corporate IT and security, startup experience required
  • Hands-on security and privacy certifications to support business growth
  • Strong command of MDM, SSO/IdP, endpoint protection, and cloud security
  • Working knowledge of OT/IoT security concepts, edge device or embedded systems security experience a plus
  • Deep knowledge of AI/ML security risks and familiarity with applicable frameworks (NIST AI RMF, OWASP LLM Top 10, MITRE ATLAS), experience applying these in a product or enterprise environment, not just theoretical exposure
  • Operates well without a team under them, comfortable building from scratch
