Job description
from Abnormal Security careersAbout the Role
Abnormal AI is seeking a Staff Software Engineer with deep expertise and passion for Security & Privacy to join the Multi-Product Platform division.
Security and privacy have become a defining advantage in enterprise software — the companies that invest most deeply in these principles earn the most trust, the largest contracts, and the longest customer relationships. Abnormal AI has built that foundation, and now we need a Staff Engineer to take it further. You will own the division's Security & Privacy vision, driving high-impact initiatives that push our standards across authentication, authorization, and auditability even higher. You will evolve the long-term technical strategies that strengthen customer trust at scale — ensuring Security & Privacy remains an unshakable competitive advantage as the platform grows.
This means identifying and framing business problems, then aligning them with the company objectives, and translating them into clear, actionable technical roadmaps that engineering teams can execute with confidence.
Who you are
- First-principles thinker – you break complex, ambiguous business problems down to fundamental truths, then rebuild them into clear, prioritized milestones that deliver meaningful customer value.
- Pragmatic security mind – you identify and communicate security risks and tradeoffs, and deliver solutions that appropriately balance strong security with real-world business needs.
