## About the Role

* Proven experience owning or significantly improving cloud security posture, ideally building security functions from scratch in a startup/scale-up environment.
 * Expert-level proficiency with AWS, Infrastructure as Code (Terraform), and modern application security patterns like decentralized authentication.
 * Strong communicator who can balance security requirements with developer experience to influence engineering teams across the entire organization.

## Description

* Opportunity to build a security function from a "cold start," defining the standards, tooling, and culture for a unicorn-stage fintech.
 * 9fin just closed a $170M Series C at a $1.3B valuation, providing massive growth trajectory and stability with 300+ institutional clients.
 * Work in a high-autonomy, low-ego environment within a senior Platform team that functions as an internal product group rather than a ticket-based service.

What you will do:

 * Design and implement automated security guardrails across a multi-account AWS environment using Terraform and policy-as-code.
 * Build and maintain secure CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions, including secret scanning, dependency analysis, and build integrity checks.
