Platform Security Engineering and Operational Readiness

• Build and run an actionable security program, taking responsibility for vulnerability management, security testing, incident response playbooks, on-call interfaces, and secure SDLC practices aligned with the platform's release cadence.
• Define and implement security controls for platform foundations, such as identity and organizational model, integrations, telemetry, billing surfaces, and administrative UX.
• Lead readiness for enterprise security reviews, ensuring security documentation, security posture transparency, and customer-facing security assurance artifacts.

Success criteria: Implementation of a repeatable security review process that scales with releases. Measurable reduction in critical security risks across the platform’s surface.

Customer Trust, Compliance Enablement, and Field Partnership

• Partner with Sales, Solutions, and Professional Services teams to unblock early design partners and enterprise rollouts with credible security answers and practical mitigations.
• Drive a pragmatic compliance path (with enterprise-grade expectations) that includes security control mapping, audit support, and customer security questionnaires, at speed.
• Act as a security-facing executive in customer conversations when needed.

Success criteria: Security becoming an adoption enabler, with fewer blocked deals or PoCs due to security concerns. Implementation of a clear enterprise-grade security baseline.

Leadership and Team Building

• Build and mentor a lean security team (platform security and product security), with strong relationships with infrastructure, identity, and agent runtime teams.
• Implement decision frameworks that clarify what must be centralized vs delegated, when to block vs mitigate, and how to ship securely in an early-stage product environment.
• Establish security KPIs that reflect real risk reduction and adoption readiness (not vanity metrics).

Success criteria: A high-trust, high-velocity security organization that product and engineering teams want to partner with. Security priorities that are clearly tied to platform milestones and customer adoption.
