About
As our Security Manager, you will be the architect of our digital workspace and the guardian of our data. We don’t just want someone to manage “tickets” - we want a visionary who views Security through the lens of AI-driven efficiency. In this role, you will build a secure, frictionless environment for our distributed team, ensuring that our security posture scales as fast as our customer base.
You Will
- Security Architecture: Design and oversee our security roadmap, focusing on Zero Trust architecture, identity management (IdP), and endpoint security across a global fleet.
- Compliance & Trust: Lead our efforts in maintaining SOC2, ISO 27001, and GDPR compliance, leveraging automation to make audit readiness a “continuous” state rather than a yearly project.
- AI Security Governance: Establish policies and guardrails for the safe use of LLMs and AI tools within the company, ensuring our data remains private and secure.
- Incident Response: Build and lead our incident response plan, ensuring a remote-first culture is prepared for any eventuality.
- Team Leadership: Lead, mentor, and develop a high performing security team.
- Strategic Partnership: Work in close partnership with our Engineering, Platform and IT teams
You Must Have
- AI-Native Mindset: You have hands-on experience implementing AI-driven security platforms (e.g., Copilots for code security, AI agents for log monitoring) and establishing governance for internal AI productivity tools.
- Cloud Native Expertise: Deep understanding of security in cloud environments such as AWS and GCP.
- MDM & Identity: Experience of implementing security controls with tools like Kandji, Okta, Google Workspace.
- B2B SaaS Background: You’ve been through a scale-up phase before. You know how to balance “moving fast” with “staying secure.”
- Strategic Communication: You can translate complex security risks into business terms for the executive team and digestible tips for employees.
- Remote Work DNA: A strong understanding of the unique challenges of securing a distributed workforce.
It’s a Plus if You Have
- Certifications: Industry-standard certs like CISSP, CISM, or CISA.
- High-Stakes Compliance: Experience in Fintech, iGaming, or Healthtech where security is mission-critical.
Our benefits
- Competitive salary and employee stock options plan.
- Fully remote and flexible working hours.
- Co-working budget — want a little escape from your home office? We’ve got you.
- Flexible vacation policy to recharge whenever you need.
- Home office setup budget — monitor, desk, ergonomics, whatever helps you do your best work.
- Learning and development budget to level up your skills and career.
- Health insurance to keep you covered.
- Wellness allowance to invest in your mental and physical well-being — gym, meditation, coaching, or whatever helps you thrive.
- Great startup culture — we’re remote but close-knit, with regular retreats and social events to stay connected.
