Lead Security Engineer

$275k - $395k

SUNO

Lead Security Engineer

We're looking for a Lead Security Engineer to help build the security foundation. This is a hands-on role: you'll set technical direction for security across our product and infrastructure, go deep in the code and the cloud yourself, and help shape the team that grows around you.

Own security architecture and the roadmap across our product and cloud environments, threat-modeling to focus effort where it matters most.

Elevate our AppSec practice: secure the SDLC, establish code-review guardrails, manage dependencies and secrets, and implement pre-production security testing.

Drive cloud security: IAM and least-privilege, account structure, network boundaries, and data-access controls.

Lead incident response. This role requires participation in an on-call rotation and acting as the senior responder during incidents.

Mentor and shape the security team and its operational processes.

10+ years in security engineering, with deep expertise in at least two of AppSec, cloud/infrastructure security, and IR, and credibility in the third.

A builder: you've created security capabilities and set direction, not only operated established programs.

Strong cross-functional partnership skills — security should enable the business to build and operate safely.

Company Equity Package

401(k) with 3% Employer Match & Roth 401(k)

Medical, Dental, & Vision Insurance (PPO w/ HSA & FSA options)

11 Paid Holidays + Unlimited PTO & Sick Time

16 Weeks of Paid Parental Leave

Creative Education Stipend

Generous Commuter Allowance

In-Office Lunch (5 days per week)

Applicants must be eligible to work in the US.

This role requires working onsite at one of our three offices.

$275,000 to 395,000
