- Prepare security documentation for vendor audits, including SOC 2 readiness
- Define systems and data handling for SOC 2 audit scope
- Create and maintain an inventory of infrastructure, applications, and third-party dependencies
- Classify data flows and security boundaries between in-house and outsourced components
- Document which security controls are managed internally vs. outsourced to vendors (AWS, GCP, etc.)
- Review and improve network security: firewalls, IDS/IPS, DDoS mitigation
- Audit API authentication, authorization, rate limiting, and multi-tenancy isolation
- Implement secrets management and secure configuration practices
- Review cloud IAM, networking, and data protection (encryption in transit and at rest)
- Evaluate container and supply-chain security practices
- Design and implement security logging and monitoring systems
- Set up SIEM/SOAR tooling or integrate centralized logging
- Establish security alerting, incident response procedures, and runbooks
- Conduct regular vulnerability scans and penetration tests
- Develop security processes to answer vendor questionnaires and RFPs
- Create documentation for customers on security controls, certifications, and data handling
- Lead the SOC 2 audit process—coordinate with internal teams and external auditors
- Stay informed on relevant compliance frameworks (SOC 2, HIPAA, Export Control, etc.)
- Enforce secure development practices to engineers
- Help teams understand threat models relevant to their work
- Build security into CI/CD pipelines and deployment processes
Qualifications
- 4+ years working on security, infrastructure, or backend systems (or equivalent combination of hands-on experience and security training)
- Strong understanding of cloud platforms: AWS, GCP, or Azure (IAM, networking, data protection, secrets management)
- Proficiency in Linux/Unix system administration and command-line tools
- Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, container security, or infrastructure-as-code
- Solid understanding of network security, authentication/authorization protocols, and cryptography basics
- Experience conducting vulnerability assessments, penetration testing, or security audits
- Demonstrated experience building or improving security programs (threat modeling, security architecture, incident response)
- Knowledge of secure coding practices, OWASP Top 10, and common vulnerability types (SQLi, XSS, CSRF, etc.)
- Familiarity with security tools: vulnerability scanners, SIEM, secret management systems, IDS/IPS
- Understanding of regulatory compliance frameworks (SOC 2 is a plus; export control is a major plus for us)
- Background in founding or early-stage startups—you understand scrappy, pragmatic security
- Experience with ML infrastructure, GPU/compute management, or high-performance systems
- Involvement in SOC 2 audits or other compliance programs
- Experience writing security policies, playbooks, and operational runbooks
- Familiarity with supply-chain security, open-source risk, or dependency management
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Cybersecurity, or equivalent professional experience
- Relevant security certifications (CISSP, CISM, CEH, OSCP, etc.) are a plus but not required
