About the role
You have shipped software into environments you could not reach. Air-gapped, disconnected, or otherwise customer-controlled, with no egress and no shell access. You have personally built an offline install bundle and a working upgrade path. A career spent entirely inside infrastructure you controlled. If every system you have shipped runs in your own cloud account, this role may not be for you. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

- Operational depth in Keycloak, OIDC, and SAML, and particularly in identity providers that are not Keycloak
- Federal compliance and software supply-chain tooling: STIG and OpenSCAP, SBOM generation, artifact signing with Sigstore or an equivalent
More about this role
While the rest of the security industry obsesses over locking data down to prevent it from being lost or stolen, we're doing something fundamentally different at Virtru. We're setting data free so that you can intentionally share it with others, but without sacrificing security, privacy, or control.
We've created both a suite of powerful data protection applications and an open platform that's sparking an ecosystem of innovation. Through the Trusted Data Format (TDF) open standard, we're not just protecting data; we're creating a new paradigm where security enables sharing rather than preventing it.
Think of us as the Android of data protection: a robust platform with an open core that developers and partners can build upon, coupled with our own best-in-class applications that showcase what's possible when you reimagine security from the ground up.
Backed by Iconiq Capital, Bessemer Venture Partners, Foundry Capital, and Tiger Global, we're helping Fortune 500 companies and government agencies discover that true data security means having the freedom to share, collaborate, and innovate — without compromise.
Virtru protects data wherever it travels, for customers ranging from...
