Engineering Manager experience leading a software/security squad, or strong tech-lead/staff-level background with clear intent and readiness to move into people management
Solid hands-on software engineering background — comfortable reading and reviewing code in at least one of Golang, Clojure, or Python, writing Shell/Python scripts for automation, and reviewing IaC (Terraform, Pulumi)
Working knowledge of AWS at scale (multi-account, Organizations, IAM, networking, Security Hub, Config). Familiarity with GCP is a strong plus
Comfort designing and governing preventive controls (SCPs, Organization Policies, admission controllers) and remediation pipelines
Track record of hiring, onboarding, and developing engineers; experience (or strong appetite) for running performance and career conversations
Strong written and spoken communication in English; ability to make complex trade-offs clear to non-technical stakeholders
Prior experience building and shipping software products (not only operating off-the-shelf security tools) — internal platforms, services, CLIs, integrations, APIs
Prior exposure to CSPM/CNAPP platforms (any major vendor)
Experience supporting regulatory or compliance workstreams (PCI, ISO 27001, banking regulators)
Familiarity with Kubernetes runtime security, event-streaming platforms, and large-scale data pipelines
Experience embedding security into AI/ML infrastructure
Hands-on use of AI coding assistants (Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, or similar) to accelerate engineering work and team productivity
AWS, GCP, Terraform, Pulumi, CloudFormation, Kubernetes, Kafka, Golang, Clojure, Python, shell scripting, CSPM/CNAPP platforms, internal data pipelines, Looker/BigQuery, Jira. AI coding assistants are part of our daily engineering workflow
