The RoleYou'll partner with platform, data, QA, and product engineers across the organization, owning the intersection of reliability and security: the tooling, monitoring, alerting, emergency response, and systems design the whole org depends on.
A defining part of the role is building how we protect our systems going forward. We're investing in agentic, AI-driven security pipelines that continuously detect, triage, and help remediate vulnerabilities across our codebase and infrastructure - and you'll lead the design and stewardship of that capability.
Above all, though, this is a coaching and consulting role. We're looking for a strong listener, patient collaborator, thoughtful architect, and skilled builder - someone who identifies needs in reliability and security and empowers peer developers to improve them.
What You'll Do- Partner with platform, data, QA, and product teams to understand their automation, infrastructure, monitoring, and security needs.
- Build tooling and processes that solve the problems those conversations surface.
- Build and maintain an agentic vulnerability detection and mitigation pipeline that will scan, triage, and propose fixes, with human-in-the-loop guardrails.
- Embed security into the development lifecycle, including threat modeling, supp ly-chain hygiene, secrets management, secure-by-default patterns.
- Lead security and reliability incident response as first-class operational concerns.
- Define company-level SLAs, SLOs, and Error Budgets, and help teams set their own.
- Steer system design toward shared tooling and decisions that ensure reliability, scalability, security, and maintainability.
- Join the on-call rotation as a peer to spot process gaps and coach on response.
- Act as a senior escalation for infrastructure and security issues, helping resolve them while coaching teams to handle the next.
- Own our AWS infrastructure and set the long-term strategy for our reliability and security posture, balancing scalability and cost.
Who You Are - Senior-to-staff experience as an SRE, platform, or infrastructure engineer, owning production reliability at scale.
- Hands-on application and/or infrastructure security experience; enough to lead the security conversation without a separate security team in the room.
- Practical experience building with LLMs and agentic systems. You've shipped something real and understand their failure modes and where human oversight is non-negotiable.
- Strong software engineering fundamentals. You build tools and systems, not just configure them.
- A coaching instinct: you measure impact by how much you raise the teams around you.
Our Values- We Get on the Plane - Entrepreneurial spirit means fully committing to the journey not just having the idea.
- We Expect Challenge + Respect - We constantly challenge each other and the work to reach excellence, always with respect.
- We Are Defined by Our Resilience - We stay resourceful, fail fast, keep getting better, and never quit on our mission or our team.
- We Pursue Answers Before the Question Has to Be Asked - We understand our customers so well that we anticipate what they need before they ask.
- We Run Towards Darkness - We have the courage to work through uncertainty rather than settling for an easier, inferior plan.
- We Know What We Don't Know - We bring confidence in what we do know, and honesty about what we don't.
