  • Provide security guidance to internal teams and customer developers

  • Respond to and remediate bug bounty reports

  • Develop deep knowledge of our stack, including client, backend, infrastructure, TEEs, and security policies

  • Advise customers on secure implementation patterns and remediate security vulnerabilities

  • Explore and implement innovative security options that set Privy apart from competitors

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years of experience in security engineering or related fields

  • Experience with implementing or maintaining security systems in production environments

  • Comfortable making changes to production environments

  • Understanding of modern web security best practices and common vulnerabilities

  • Ability to communicate complex security concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences

  • A collaborative approach to security that emphasizes education and enablement

  • Excitement about all things security

Bonus points if you have...

  • Experience with corporate security or information security in startups

  • Blockchain security experience

  • Detection and response or incident response background

  • AWS security expertise

  • Bug bounty hunting or red team experience

  • Experience building security-focused developer tools

  • Published about your work in security (presentations, blog posts, open source contributions)

Security at Privy

Security at Privy is about enabling engineers and users. We build security that empowers developers and protects users through intuitive interfaces and thoughtful implementation. We believe security should be accessible and understandable, not mysterious or intimidating. Our team works to advance onchain system security through new paradigms, community involvement, and open collaboration. We understand that security is only as good as it is made usable, and used in practice. We encourage each other to experiment, question assumptions, and pursue innovative approaches that make security more effective and less burdensome.
