  • Advise customers on secure implementation patterns and remediate security vulnerabilities

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

  • 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

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.
