Hands-on role covering CASB/SaaS controls, incident response, and automation; must be based in the NYC area (hybrid).
For more than a decade, Cockroach Labs has built database technology trusted to power some of the world's most mission-critical applications. Now, as AI transforms how software is created and operated, the infrastructure behind it has to keep pace. Cockroach Continuum is built to meet this moment, bringing individual databases together into one fleet designed for agentic applications, where AI agents help teams provision, scale, and optimize workloads at machine speed.
At Cockroach Labs, you'll solve problems that didn't exist five years ago alongside people who believe the simplest solutions often require the most sophisticated thinking. Your work will run in production at some of the most innovative companies in the world. The people who thrive here are the ones who want to own that opportunity.
Cockroach Labs is looking for a Senior Corporate Security Engineer to help protect our endpoints, cloud platforms, internal applications, and enterprise SaaS environment.
This is a hands-on, cross-functional role with a particular focus on AI governance, data protection, and corporate security operations. You’ll help shape how Cockroach Labs securely adopts AI tools and agents, strengthen our DLP and SaaS security controls, and lead security initiatives from design through implementation.
We’re looking for a well-rounded security engineer who can balance strong security practices with the needs of the business. You should be comfortable working across IT and security systems, partnering with teams throughout the company, and navigating emerging risks in a rapidly changing AI landscape. This role offers the opportunity to take meaningful ownership of our corporate security program while working on a wide range of high-impact projects.
To be eligible for this role, you must be based in the NYC area.
In your first 30 days, you will become an integrated member of our Corporate Engineering Team. You’ll become familiar with our existing systems and processes. We believe that it's essential for you to take this first month to become familiar with our technology, processes and our company.
In your second month, you will collaborate with the team in order to evaluate the current state of our AI governance program and propose a course for improvements, scoping out projects to bolster our security posture. You will work to improve the AI governance program, tracking goals and milestones along the way.
In your third month, you will begin to take the reins of various projects within the scope of the Corporate Security team, leading initiatives from design to implementation. You will be a key player within the company, managing the AI governance program, helping to build out our AI Gateway and other infrastructure. You will help other teams manage their AI workloads, build AI applications, and support the secure hosting of internal tools.
