Job Description

• Own the product security vision, ensuring security and trust are core to every stage of the product lifecycle. • Design and implement platform-wide security features, including Sybil resistance, bot detection, reputation systems, and anti-abuse primitives. • Lead threat modeling and security architecture reviews for new and existing product features. • Collaborate with infrastructure and product engineering to design secure APIs, data flows, and identity systems that scale. • Improve developer velocity by creating secure-by-default frameworks and tooling for internal teams. • Partner with incident response to quickly assess, contain, and remediate security events, and lead deep postmortems to improve defenses. • Stay ahead of the curve by monitoring emerging attack techniques and applying cutting-edge security research to our platform. • Mentor engineers across the company on secure coding practices, architecture trade-offs, and operational security.

Job Requirements

  • 8+ years of experience in software engineering or security engineering, including staff-level scope in securing large-scale, user-facing platforms.
  • Proven track record designing and implementing systems to detect, mitigate, and prevent adversarial behavior (bots, Sybil attacks, automated abuse).
  • Strong experience with threat modeling, secure architecture design, and risk assessment.
  • Hands-on experience building security features into production systems at scale (millions of DAU / billions of requests).
  • Proficiency in backend development (Node.js, TypeScript, Python, or Go) and willingness to work across the stack when needed.
  • Strong knowledge of distributed systems security, identity, and authentication mechanisms.
  • Excellent communication skills, able to build alignment across engineering, product, and leadership teams.

Benefits

  • Comprehensive health, dental, vision, and additional support programs.
  • The opportunity to work on cutting-edge AI with a small, mission-driven team.
  • A culture that values transparency, trust, and community impact.
  • Visa sponsorship available.
