Description

This position is posted by Jobgether on behalf of a partner company. We are currently looking for a Director of Engineering, Security Risk Management in EMEA, Canada, or the US. We are seeking a visionary engineering leader to drive the evolution of a large-scale Security Risk Management (SRM) platform, enabling vulnerability analysis and remediation across global enterprise environments. In this strategic role, you’ll design and implement cutting-edge distributed systems, empower high-performing teams, and define technical standards for scalability, observability, and performance in security-critical environments. You’ll collaborate with senior engineering and product teams to create solutions that empower both developers and security professionals to seamlessly integrate secure practices into their workflows. This is an exceptional opportunity to shape the future of application security at scale and lead impactful, AI-driven innovation in the DevSecOps domain. Accountabilities Provide strategic and technical leadership to define the SRM architecture, ensuring robust performance, scalability, and reliability across large, distributed systems. Design real-time data processing pipelines capable of handling complex vulnerability data from thousands of repositories and millions of commits. Oversee storage decisions for massive security datasets, optimizing performance, cost, and retention across multiple database paradigms. Champion a culture of engineering excellence through distributed systems design, observability standards, and fault-tolerant architecture. Collaborate closely with Product, UX, and Design teams to translate advanced technical capabilities into intuitive, enterprise-ready solutions. Mentor senior engineers, foster technical growth, and instill high standards for architectural decision-making. Lead initiatives to integrate emerging technologies such as graph databases, stream processing, and ML inference into scalable, enterprise-level security solutions. Partner cross-functionally with infrastructure, data, and AI teams to ensure seamless platform integration and reliability. 10+ years of experience in software engineering, including 5+ years leading distributed systems at enterprise scale. Proven expertise in designing and managing high-throughput, low-latency systems with complex data structures. Strong knowledge of modern data technologies — PostgreSQL, Cloud Spanner, graph and time-series databases, and distributed key-value stores. Hands-on experience with container orchestration (Kubernetes), event-driven architectures, and stream processing frameworks such as Kafka or Flink. Deep understanding of application security, vulnerability management, and static or dependency analysis workflows. Demonstrated success in leading large, high-performing engineering teams and transforming technical culture. Excellent communication skills, with the ability to convey complex technical ideas to both executives and engineers. A track record of solving large-scale technical challenges through systems thinking, innovation, and collaboration. Competitive salary package, equity plan, and comprehensive health benefits. Fully remote role with flexible working hours and generous paid time off. Growth and Development Fund to support continuous learning and professional development. Parental leave and home office support for optimal work-life balance. Inclusive and diverse environment that values innovation, collaboration, and individual contribution. Opportunity to work with global enterprise clients and industry leaders shaping the next generation of secure software development.
