Join us as we go fearlessly forward together, growing, learning, and making a real impact for some of the world’s biggest brands.

We are seeking an exceptional Senior Director, Dev Sec Ops  to own the strategy, organization, and execution behind the infrastructure that powers our data security platform, which processes billions of data events per day across hundreds of enterprise clouds. You will lead a global organization of Dev Sec Ops , SRE, and platform engineers and set the technical direction for how we build, deploy, secure, and operate the platform across AWS, Azure, and GCP.

You’ll turn infrastructure into a product, security into a default, and reliability into a measurable promise to customers, so that when a Fortune 500 company onboards petabytes of data, the platform scales without manual work, security exceptions, or customer impact. Every architectural decision, security policy, and hiring choice your organization makes will shape whether enterprises can trust us with their most sensitive data.

You’ll build an organization that thinks like an attacker, plans for breach, keeps the blast radius small, and still ships fast enough to win the market, with the scope to shape strategy, the budget to execute it, and the accountability to own the outcome.
