You will be a foundational leader within our information security team, tasked with building and leading a world-class group of Security Analysts and Security Engineers. Your mission is to lead the talented analysts who defend our environment (Ops) and the expert engineers who build our security infrastructure (Eng).
We want a "builder"-someone who thrives in
high-trust, high-autonomy environments. You will be the primary engine for our defensive strategy, expected to define the "how" once we've agreed on the "what." You aren't waiting for a playbook; you are writing it.
On a day-to-day basis, you will:
- Lead and Mentor: Manage a hybrid team of analysts and engineers, providing technical guidance, career development, and performance coaching.
- Program Oversight: Oversee the vulnerability management lifecycle, ensuring that scanning, triaging, and remediation efforts are executed with precision.
- Bridge the Gap: Ensure that Security Engineering is building the preventive/detective controls that Security Operations actually needs to be effective.
- Strategic Automation: Drive the "Automation and AI" mindset, moving the team away from manual triage toward automated detection, response, and remediation.
- Incident & Infrastructure Leadership: Serve as the escalation point for incidents while simultaneously overseeing the design and deployment of our security stack (SIEM, CNAPP, SWG, EDR, Vulnerability Scanners).
- Cross-Functional Influence: Partner with Engineering and Infrastructure to integrate security into the Salesloft architecture, ensuring our production environment is "secure by default."
- Executive Visibility: Translate technical engineering projects and operational risks into business context for the CISO and executive leadership.
Security Operations: Assist with the team's security operations work load as needed.In addition to working with amazing colleagues who exemplify our 'team over self' core value, you will also have the opportunity to grow and evolve a fast moving Security Engineer and Security Operations function while making a real difference in reducing risk and our employees to move faster. You will have an opportunity to make a difference.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR:We are seeking a
player-coach with a bias-towards-action. You should be a seasoned practitioner who has built security tools in AWS/GCP and led high-pressure incident responses. Most importantly, we need a leader with
radical ownership-someone who can navigate ambiguity and execute a long-term roadmap without step-by-step oversight.
If you are a bias-towards-action leader who wants to own a function end-to-end, this is the career path for you!
