A bit about us:

We are an AI security company protecting the world’s most valuable technologies from adversarial AI attacks. As enterprises race to put AI models, LLMs, and autonomous agents into production, traditional cybersecurity tools weren’t built to understand or defend them. We are building the security layer purpose-built for AI, spanning AI Discovery, AI Supply Chain Security, AI Runtime Security, and AI Attack Simulation. Our model-agnostic platform defends against prompt injection, jailbreaks, model extraction, poisoned models, and unsafe agent behavior without requiring customers to expose their proprietary data, weights, or prompts. Founded by AI and security specialists, we recently closed a $100M Series B led by Delta-v Capital, with participation from Morgan Stanley, Microsoft’s venture fund, and Booz Allen Ventures, following more than 10x annual recurring revenue growth.

Job Details

What We Are Looking For:

We are seeking a senior, hands-on SRE leader to take significant ownership of our overall platform availability and reliability for customers. This is a true player/coach role: you will manage and grow a team, but your credibility will come from being the deepest reliability expert in the room. Think of it as a “Chief SRE Engineer,” a principal-level technical authority who can architect the solution, debug the incident, and lead the people. You will operate across a multi-cloud environment, partner closely with engineering leadership, and have direct visibility with our executive team. We need someone who has thrived in a startup environment and knows how to build reliability practices while the company scales quickly.

What You Will Do:

Own platform availability, reliability, and performance for our customer-facing AI security products.
Lead, mentor, and grow the SRE/Platform team while staying hands-on in architecture, automation, and production work.
Serve as the go-to subject matter expert on reliability, setting the technical bar for engineering.
Define and drive SLOs, SLIs, error budgets, and reliability standards across the organization.
Architect and evolve scalable, resilient infrastructure across AWS, GCP, and Azure.
Lead incident management, on-call practices, and blameless postmortems, and drive fixes to root cause.
Build observability, monitoring, and alerting that gives the business real visibility into platform health.
Improve CI/CD, infrastructure as code, and deployment practices to increase velocity without sacrificing stability.
Report on platform health and reliability strategy directly to executive leadership.

What We Provide:

Full-Time
Fully Remote
Full Benefits Package Available

What We Believe:

We value inclusivity, welcoming candidates from diverse backgrounds, including non-traditional paths. Unique experiences enrich our team, and the willingness to dream big makes you an exceptional candidate!

We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive environment and are proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We do not and will not discriminate in employment and personnel practices on the basis of race, sex, age, disability, religion, national origin, or any other basis prohibited by applicable law.

What We Require:

10+ years in SRE, platform, or infrastructure engineering, including principal-level technical and people-leadership roles
Startup experience (required)
Proven people management experience leading SRE, platform, or infrastructure teams
Recognized, hands-on subject matter expertise in site reliability engineering
Deep hands-on experience with Kubernetes in production
Experience across multiple cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, and Azure strongly preferred)
Strong background in infrastructure as code (e.g. Terraform), CI/CD, and observability tooling
Experience owning production availability for customer-facing SaaS platforms
Track record leading incident response and building reliability culture
Ability to communicate clearly with executive leadership and influence senior engineers
Security, AI/ML infrastructure, or cybersecurity product experience a plus
