About the role
We're hiring a Senior Product Security Engineer to work hand-in-hand with developers to secure the product across its entire lifecycle. You'll be the person who makes our platform defensible — through design reviews, threat modeling, hands-on penetration testing, and secure-coding partnership — and you'll do it as a collaborator who helps engineers ship securely, not a gatekeeper who slows them down. This role partners closely with product engineering and platform engineering teams. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- A strong track record in product or application security — you've measurably made real products more secure
- Hands-on penetration testing experience against web applications and APIs
- Experience running security design reviews and threat modeling
- Solid understanding of the SDLC and how to embed security into it
- Strong communication skills — you work directly with developers and can explain risk in terms they'll act on
