About the Security Team

  • Enjoy taking ownership of systems like Okta, MDM, and EDR and making them more reliable, secure, and easy to use
  • Can balance security best practices with the realities of usability and speed
  • Like designing scalable controls for access, identity, and device management
  • Are comfortable working independently and cross-functionally with IT, Infra, and GRC
  • Are curious, proactive, and enjoy simplifying complexity
  • What you'll be doing

  • Own and improve our identity and access management systems (Okta, Google Workspace, etc.)
  • Administer and secure our MDM and endpoint protection tools (e.g. Kandji, EDRs)
  • Partner with Infra to implement controls for least privilege, audit logging, and change management
  • Develop automations and tooling for onboarding/offboarding, access reviews, and audit prep
  • Proactively identify security risks and lead the rollout of mitigations
  • Help shape security policies and practices that work well for engineers, not against them
  • Work with vendors and evaluate new tools as needed
  • Document systems and decisions clearly to support scale and clarity
  • Requirements

  • Experience with identity, access, and endpoint security tools (e.g. Okta, MDM, EDR)
  • Familiarity with cloud-native IT/security operations and SaaS environments
  • Comfort working in a fast-paced, high-autonomy environment
  • A practical mindset and a bias for simplicity and security-by-default
  • Nice to have

  • Experience working at a startup or on a small security team
  • Familiarity with SOC 2, ISO 27001, or other compliance frameworks
  • Scripting or automation experience (e.g. Python, Bash, Terraform)
