Are you ready to help us shape the future of the open web? At Pantheon, we power the digital experiences of over 300,000 websites, supporting global brands like Google, Princeton, and Doctors Without Borders. Our platform allows developers and marketers to iterate and scale their WordPress and Drupal sites with ease, and we are looking for a visionary leader to help us keep that ecosystem secure, resilient, and reliable for billions of users worldwide.
What you bring
As our Director of Security Engineering, you will serve as a key leader in our organization, working remotely from anywhere to fortify our platform and protect the thousands of sites we host. This executive-level, full-time role requires deep expertise in information security and a passion for building a robust security culture. Your primary responsibilities will include:
- Leading and mentoring a high-performing team of security engineers to drive our platform and application security initiatives.
- Managing the security engineering budget while overseeing the selection and deployment of critical tools for threat modeling and risk assessment.
- Partnering with our product and engineering teams to integrate secure coding practices and compliance standards like PCI-DSS and SOC2 into our core development workflows.
Requirements
We are looking for a candidate with over 10 years of experience in information security who can bridge the gap between complex regulatory requirements and practical engineering solutions. You should possess a deep understanding of cloud platforms, Infrastructure as Code, and modern application security vulnerabilities. A strong candidate will hold an industry-leading certification such as CISSP, CISM, or CSSLP. We value leaders who are excellent communicators, capable of translating technical risks into clear business language, and who have a proven track record of implementing shift-left security principles within a fast-paced development environment. Proficiency in English is required for this role.

We provide a base salary range of 196,000 USD to 220,000 USD, alongside a supportive environment that values your professional growth and personal well-being. Our benefits package includes:
- Equity compensation to ensure you share in our success.
- Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance.
- Flexible hours and generous paid time off.
- Access to wellness programs and professional development resources.
- The ability to work remotely from any location.
