Role Overview
This is a hands-on Principal Infrastructure Security opportunity within the DevSecOps practice that strengthens security across our primarily AWS-based infrastructure and software delivery. Partner with AppSec and InfoSec to prevent issues and respond effectively when they arise. This is a player-coach role: set strategy while staying close to the technical work.
What You'll Do
- Define and execute a risk-based DevSecOps roadmap; establish ownership, metrics, escalation paths, and a plan to grow the team.
- Implement preventive AWS controls for identity, networking, encryption, secrets/key management, and cloud configuration; ensure security-relevant activity is logged for monitoring, investigation, and audit.
- Embed security into IaC, CI/CD, containers/orchestration, and software supply chains (SCA, secrets scanning, artifact integrity/signing, SBOMs where appropriate), including automated pipeline controls (SAST, IaC/container scanning, policy-as-code).
- Partner with AppSec and InfoSec on security testing, policy, risk, audit evidence, and incident response.
- Triage and prioritize vulnerabilities by exposure, exploitability, and business impact; coordinate remediation, track exceptions, and support investigation, containment, recovery, and post-incident improvement.
What We're Looking For
Required qualifications
- 10+ years combined experience in software, platform/DevOps, and security engineering; 3+ years as a technical lead.
- Experience leading cross-functional security or infrastructure initiatives and influencing engineering, DevOps/platform, AppSec, and InfoSec teams.
- Hands-on AWS security and IAM (least privilege, service identities, privileged access, encryption, networking/security boundaries); experience automating controls with scripting, IaC, CI/CD, and policy-as-code.
- Experience securing delivery pipelines end to end (IaC, CI/CD, containers, dependencies/artifacts, secrets).
- Experience prioritizing vulnerabilities by risk and establishing ownership, escalation, exception, and remediation workflows.
- Experience in security incident investigation, containment, recovery, and post-incident improvement; ability to communicate risk and tradeoffs to leadership.
Preferred qualifications
- Experience building a security/DevSecOps practice and hiring, developing, or managing engineers.
- Kubernetes/container security; software supply chain and secure SDLC practices; security observability/detection partnership with InfoSec/SOC.
- Experience selecting security tools, managing vendors and budgets, and measuring control coverage, risk reduction, and remediation progress.
- Familiarity with public-company or regulated audit controls (e.g., SOX, SOC 2, ISO 27001).

- Unlimited PTO
- Excellent medical, dental, and vision coverage
- Employee Equity
- Employee Discounts, Virtual Wellness Classes, and Pet Insurance and more!!
