• Automation and DevSecOps: Write production-grade services to automate complex security workflows, turning manual interventions into reliable, code-driven processes
• Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC): Establish automated security guardrails and golden path modules that ensure our cloud resources are secure by default. Codify infrastructure including networking, IAM, Kubernetes, databases, streaming and pubsub platforms, storage, distribution, and more
• Build the Security Data Backbone: Design, build, and operate high-scale data pipelines to ingest, normalize, and enrich security telemetry for our detection and response functions
• Enable Cross-Functional Teams: Partner with platform and product engineering to integrate security requirements into the developer lifecycle without introducing friction
• Greenfield Leadership: Influence the selection of our security stack, evaluating build vs. buy for core security tooling, and establishing the engineering standards for a growing team

Requirements:

• Experience building in cloud-native environments (GCP or AWS)
• Experience designing for high availability and scale
• Expert proficiency in at least one modern general-purpose language (Python is a plus)
• Demonstrated ability to drive large, cross-functional technical projects that impact security posture across the entire organization
• You have a bias for action and a knack for navigating ambiguity
• You are excited to be a founding member of a security team, setting the technical bar from day one and building paved road solutions that empower your internal security partners and developers
• You thrive in ambiguity and are excited about a greenfield environment
• You believe that detection and governance are only as good as the infrastructure supporting them
• You treat infrastructure as code and data as a first-class citizen
• You enjoy moving between high-level architectural design and deep-dive coding/debugging
