Full Job Posting

Responsibilities:

  • Conduct thorough security architecture and design reviews for new and evolving product features, surfacing risk early and recommending practical mitigations.
  • Drive a risk-based approach to application security, helping teams understand and prioritize vulnerabilities by business impact.
  • Serve as a subject matter expert on application security topics for product, engineering, legal, and leadership stakeholders.
  • Mentor engineers across the organization on secure development practices, fostering a culture where security is everyone's responsibility.
  • Build and maintain strong, collaborative partnerships with product and engineering teams, serving as their primary security resource and advocate throughout the software development lifecycle.
  • Mature Lucid's Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SSDLC), including secure coding standards, security requirements, and developer security education.
  • Ensure AI tools and processes are implemented within acceptable risk limits.
  • Lead product design reviews to ensure security considerations are inherent in feature design.
  • Develop and maintain scalable security tooling and automation to integrate security controls into CI/CD pipelines with a focus on reducing risk over implementing tools.
  • Lead and train engineers in Lucid’s security champions program.

Requirements:

  • 5+ combined years of experience in software engineering, application security, product security, or a closely related field within a SaaS environment.
  • Proven track record of building trusted, effective relationships with product and engineering teams.
  • Experience securing web applications built on modern frameworks and cloud-native architectures (particularly AWS).
  • White-box penetration testing experience.
  • Strong understanding of SSDLC principles and experience implementing or maturing secure development programs.
  • Ability to conduct meaningful security architecture and design reviews, with a focus on identifying risk early in the development process.
  • Solid understanding of common application vulnerabilities and attack techniques (OWASP Top 10, API security, authentication/authorization flaws, etc.).
  • Experience integrating security tooling into modern CI/CD pipelines.
  • Risk-focused mindset: able to articulate security risk in business terms and help teams make informed, pragmatic decisions while avoiding security theater.
  • Familiarity with AI security risks and emerging attack surfaces, including securing agentic systems, MCP, and LLM-powered workflows against new and evolving threats.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills; equally comfortable in a design review with engineers and a risk conversation with leadership.
  • Preferred Qualifications:
  • Development experience in modern tech stacks.
  • Practical knowledge of relevant security frameworks and compliance standards (e.g., OWASP ASVS, NIST 800-53, SOC 2, GDPR).
  • Relevant certifications such as OSCP, BSCP, GWEB, PNPT, or similar hands-on security-focused certifications.
  • Experience with bug bounty program management.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or a related field.
  • #LI-DA1
