Director of Engineering, Security Products

About the role

The Security Products team at CoreWeave is responsible for building the platform capabilities that let enterprise customers safely extend their existing identity, security, and encryption stacks to CoreWeave Cloud. This team owns products like CoreWeave IAM, future encryption lifecycle and key management capabilities, and supporting infrastructure that enables fine-grained access control, auditability, and secure onboarding of sensitive AI workloads. We partner closely with Product, Information Security, and core platform teams to make CoreWeave the most secure and compliant place to run large-scale AI.

Responsibilities

• Define and drive the engineering roadmap for CoreWeave security products (e.g., IAM, authorization, encryption lifecycle management, workload identity, and related platform capabilities).
• Lead and grow high-performing engineering teams, including managers and senior ICs, responsible for building and operating security-critical services.
• Own the availability, reliability, and performance of security product services in production, including SLIs/SLOs, incident management, and on-call practices.
• Partner closely with Product Management and Information Security to translate customer, compliance, and GRC requirements into clear technical designs and delivery plans.
• Oversee the architecture and implementation of secure, scalable, and auditable systems that integrate with customer identity providers, key management systems, and security tooling.
• Collaborate with customer-facing teams (Sales, Solutions, Customer Experience) to support complex enterprise deployments and unblock high-impact opportunities.
• Establish and continuously improve engineering processes, quality bars, and operational best practices for security products in a rapidly growing environment.

Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience in software or infrastructure engineering building and operating production services.
• 5+ years of engineering leadership experience, including directly managing other managers and scaling multi-team organizations.
• Proven track record of delivering security, identity, or encryption-related products (e.g., IAM, SSO, KMS, HSM, workload identity, security platforms) at a cloud provider, security company, or large-scale SaaS.
• Experience designing and operating distributed systems with high availability, strong correctness requirements, and clear operational ownership.
• Strong understanding of enterprise security concepts such as authentication, authorization, least privilege, encryption at rest and in transit, and audit logging.
• Familiarity with common compliance and security frameworks (e.g., SOC 2, ISO 27001, FedRAMP, HIPAA) and how they translate into product and architectural requirements.
• Demonstrated experience collaborating with Product Management and Security/Compliance teams to prioritize trade-offs and ship customer-facing platform capabilities.
• Experience building and mentoring diverse, inclusive, and high-performing engineering teams in a fast-paced environment.
