We9re looking for a hands-on engineering leader who combines deep technical expertise with strong judgment and people leadership. You9ll help your team tackle complex security challenges, prioritize work that meaningfully reduces risk, and build strong partnerships with engineering teams to make security an integral part of how our platform evolves. Your team is responsible for security across cloud infrastructure, identity and access management, privileged access, networks, containers, and emerging AI and automated systems. You9ll lead and develop a team of security engineers while partnering closely with Platform Security, Threat Operations, and infrastructure engineering leaders to strengthen our security posture. As AI and agentic technologies become increasingly integrated into production environments, you9ll also help define how we secure these systems, including their identities, access to infrastructure and data, and the controls that limit potential risk. In this role, you9ll help ensure 1Password9s infrastructure remains secure, resilient, and scalable while enabling engineering teams to move quickly and confidently. This is a remote opportunity within Canada and the US.

What you can expect: 3 Set the strategic direction and priorities for Infrastructure Security, and own delivery end to end, aligned with the Platform Security strategy 3 Define clear goals and metrics so progress is measurable and trade-offs can be argued with evidence 3 Lead delivery across concurrent workstreams in cloud security, identity and access management, and container security 3 Build, coach, and grow a team of security engineers: set clear expectations for what good looks like, and address both strong performance and off-track performance early rather than waiting for issues to surface 3 Work closely with platform and infrastructure engineering teams so security is designed into systems from the start 3 Help define how we secure AI and automated systems, including the identities they run as, how their access is scoped, and where the boundaries around them sit 3 Partner with the other Platform Security teams and with Threat Operations so findings reach the right owner and get remediated inside an agreed SLA 3 Make the calls Infrastructure Security needs, and bring in your peers and manager on decisions that reach beyond the team 3 Make sure security keeps up with company growth without slowing teams down USA-based roles only: The annual base salary for this role is between $230,000 USD and $334,000 USD, plus immediate participation in 1Password9s benefits program (health, dental, 401k and many others), utilization of our generous paid time off, an equity grant and, where applicable, participation in our incentive programs.
