Who we are looking for
We are seeking a highly technical and hands‑on Security Guardian, Vice President to serve as a strategic security guardian to engineering, platform, and business teams. This role sits in the first line of defense and is responsible for proactively reducing technical security risk through deep engagement with product teams, rigorous architecture and application reviews, and the design and validation of embedded security controls across cloud and distributed environments.
The ideal candidate is an experienced security architect and practitioner who thrives working directly with engineers, thinks like an attacker, and can translate complex security principles into actionable engineering decisions. This person brings robust expertise across multiple advanced security domains and operates as both a technical advisor and a strategic influencer.
What you will be responsible for
Conduct hands-on security assessments at the application, platform, and system levels using threat modeling, architecture review, and vulnerability analysis to identify design flaws,



cloud misconfigurations, insecure dependencies, and agent or API abuse scenarios.
Design and recommend concrete security controls that are embedded directly into system and application architectures, including secure identity and access design, cryptographic protections, network isolation, runtime enforcement, and secure defaults across cloud and distributed environments.
Own and actively drive down technical security risk by continuously engaging with engineering and platform teams, validating that security controls are correctly implemented, effective in production, and aligned with real-world threat models rather than static risk registers.
Partner closely with engineering teams as an embedded product security expert, influencing design decisions early, reviewing architecture and code paths, and helping teams build secure systems by default rather than retrofitting controls.
