With a workforce of over 4,000 employees worldwide, the company builds infrastructure that powers millions of users, helping to define the future of onchain and digital financial systems.

The Corporate Security (CorpSec) team safeguards the internal environment: from employee laptops and SaaS applications to network and endpoint security. Their mission is to secure systems at scale while ensuring employees remain productive, collaborative, and empowered.

Key Responsibilities:

• Security Leadership: Design, implement, and oversee endpoint security solutions for macOS, Chromebook, and mobile devices always balancing usability with robust security.

• Strategic Planning: Define and execute the security roadmap, setting measurable objectives and delivering scalable solutions.
• Team Development: Mentor, guide, and grow a high-performing security engineering team, leading hiring efforts and establishing a strong engineering culture.
• Hands-On Contribution: Stay technical by conducting code reviews, drafting technical documentation, participating in incident response, and assisting with on-call rotations.

What Were Looking For:

• 712 years of combined software and security engineering experience.
• 5+ years of proven expertise in securing endpoints and SaaS applications at scale (1,000+ employees).
• 5+ years in engineering management or TLM roles with a track record of building and scaling teams.
• Strong technical background in Golang or Python, Docker, AWS/GCP.
• Hands-on experience with Zero Trust security models (Cloudflare, Zscaler) and securing mobile endpoints (iOS, Android).
• Demonstrated ability to design and scale production-ready security services.
• BS/CS degree preferred.

Not a fit if: Work history shows frequent short stints (<2 years each), profile is overly senior (Director+), or experience is limited to small startups only.
