  • A note on applying: We mean it when we say we want the strongest people — not the most credentialed ones. If you're excited about this work but don't check every box, please apply anyway. Research consistently shows that underrepresented candidates are more likely to self-select out, and that's a loss for everyone. Sofar operates at the intersection of ocean science, climate, and technology — the problems we're solving are consequential, and the perspectives we bring to them matter. We're actively working to build a team that reflects that

  • A clear, well-reasoned point of view on how a ~100-person startup should approach security, including where to invest early, where to accept risk, and how to sequence compliance work. You can defend that view and adjust it when the context changes
  • 5+ years in IT systems, corporate security, or security engineering, ideally at a startup
  • Experience with SIEM detection engineering
  • Experience Vanta or Drata, AWS CloudFormation, Auth0
