Rocketlane is a B2B SaaS platform for client onboarding and project delivery, building Nitro, our AI-native product layer on Claude and MCP. We're hiring a Security Lead to own product and infrastructure security end-to-end: setting direction, leading incident response.

This is not a compliance-only role. You'll be the person we call when something breaks on a Saturday night, and the person who makes sure it doesn't keep happening.

What you'll own
Incident response
- Be the senior escalation point to investigate security incidents
- Lead root cause analysis for the incident and prepare RCA reports within one business day
- Own the customer-facing incident communication and response process

Product security leadership
- Manage and mentor Product Security Engineers, reviewing their pentest findings, vulnerability triage, and remediation work, and stepping in on anything above their current level
- Set the technical bar for what "secure" means across our web app, APIs, mobile, cloud infra, and our AI/LLM-powered surfaces (prompt injection, unsafe code execution in agent tooling,



tool-call boundaries)
- Own our cloud security posture: AWS WAF, IAM, TLS/cipher policy, container isolation, secrets management, and get ahead of the recurring findings

Cross-functional ownership
- Be a direct partner to the CTO on security strategy and risk decisions
- Represent security in front of customers and prospects when the stakes are high, including exec-level calls during live incidents
- Build the muscle and the process so that security incidents get caught internally, get root-caused properly, and get communicated to customers accurately

What we're looking for
- 6+ years in security, with real ownership of incident response for production SaaS systems, not just a support role in someone else's process
- Track record of leading root cause analysis on reliable incidents: access control failures, data exposure, or RCE-class vulnerabilities, and turning that into concrete preventi
