Step 1 of 2
The mandate in four claims
- Scope
- Secure products across enterprise/product security, cloud infrastructure and protections embedded in the editor and agent platform: one engineer, three surfaces.
- Posture
- Builder-first. You design paved-road defenses, meaning a default path where the secure option is also the easiest one. Think just-in-time (JIT) cloud access that grants a permission and auto-revokes it, AI-augmented review and agent sandboxes, not one-off remediations.
- Ownership
- Flat, talent-dense org. You take an ambiguous security problem and return working systems with limited guidance.
- Depth
- The posting lists traits, not a years bar. This module's reading of its three-surface scope and sample projects: real depth in application security AND in infrastructure/cloud security. One axis is not enough.
