  • Identify emerging customer security needs and build solutions to address them.
  • Lead security architecture reviews and threat models for Kubernetes-based workloads running on GCP and AWS.
  • Harden container images, Kubernetes cluster configurations, and cloud IAM postures to reduce attack surface.
  • Define and drive adoption of baseline security standards such as pod security standards, network policies, workload identity, and secrets management.

  • Proven experience designing and securing CI/CD pipelines using tools such as GitHub Actions, Cloud Build, Tekton, or similar.
  • Fluency with container security, including image scanning, distroless or minimal base images, and runtime security.
  • Experience with software supply chain security tools and frameworks such as Sigstore, SLSA, and SBOM generation.
  • Solid understanding of OWASP, NIST, and cloud security frameworks and how to apply them pragmatically.
  • Familiarity with Chainguard Images or other minimal/hardened container base image ecosystems is preferred.
  • Experience with policy-as-code tools such as OPA, Kyverno, or Conftest is preferred.
  • Contributions to open source security projects are preferred.

Benefits

  • Flexible remote-first culture with team meetup opportunities and bi-annual destination summits.
  • Monthly stipend for coworking spaces, phone, and internet costs.
  • Stock options upon hire and promotion, with eligibility for secondary offerings and 10 years to exercise options.
