SECURITY ENGINEERING @ CLAY We're building a modern security organization from the ground up. We're hiring senior or staff-level security engineers who are strong software engineers first, with deep expertise in either Cloud Security or Application Security and working knowledge across both. This is a hands-on role. You'll spend significant time writing production code—security tooling, detection systems, remediation pipelines, and frameworks that make secure defaults the easiest path. You'll also help define how we leverage modern automation, including frontier AI models (e.g. Mythos), to scale security operations: autonomously discovering vulnerabilities, reviewing AI-generated code, and building detection systems that understand context and intent. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Build security primitives, tooling, and automation that scale with the product and engineering org - Define and implement our strategy for modern security workflows: AI-assisted vulnerability discovery, automated code review, threat detection, and remediation - Collaborate with Infrastructure and Product Engineering to make secure defaults the easiest path - Own projects end to end: design, implementation, rollout, and measurement CLOUD SECURITY - Secure our cloud environment (IAM, network policies, container security, secrets management, and misconfiguration prevention). - Define and enforce least-privilege access patterns across services and humans. - Improve cloud visibility and control using infrastructure-as-code and cloud security tooling (we currently use Terraform, AWS Config, and AWS Security Hub). - Develop preventative controls and safe deployment patterns that reduce the probability and blast radius of incidents. APPLICATION SECURITY - Lead secure design and secure coding practices, and prevent common vulnerability classes. - Perform architecture reviews and code-level security reviews, and work hands-on with engineers to ship fixes. - Own the vulnerability discovery and validation lifecycle: static and dynamic analysis, dependency checks, pen tests, and bug bounties. Integrate modern automated detection systems (including Claude Mythos-class models) to find vulnerabilities at scale. - Build and deploy security agents and automated workflows that can scan codebases, propose fixes, and in some cases autonomously deploy security patches. - Build frameworks and reusable components for authentication, authorization, and secure-by-default patterns. - Define practical policies and controls for code generation tools and coding agent changes, so they can be used safely and consistently. WHAT YOU'LL BRING - Strong software engineering fundamentals and a track record of shipping production systems - Deep expertise in either cloud security or application security, with the ability to flex into the adjacent domain - Ability to build, not just advise: You translate risk into concrete engineering work and ship solutions - Comfort with ambiguity: You thrive when building from first principles and defining what good looks like - Forward-thinking about tooling: Interest in leveraging modern automation and AI to scale security operations while maintaining engineering rigor OUT OF SCOPE This is not an IT helpdesk or general operations role. We partner with other teams and vendors for routine operational work so you can stay focused on building scalable security foundations.

THE ROLE Clay’s engineering team and codebase are growing quickly, and require continued investment in tooling and infrastructure to operate effectively. In particular, as coding agents continue to advance, the hardest challenges in engineering aren't writing the code itself—they're everything around it: context, environment, validation, testing, and safely integrating changes into real production systems. At Clay, we believe the next evolution of software engineering will come from building systems where coding agents can operate with deep awareness of the codebase, infrastructure, and development lifecycle. That requires a major investment in developer experience and engineering infrastructure. We’re expanding our infrastructure team to build the systems that make this possible — environments where agents can understand the full context of a codebase, execute development tasks end-to-end, and safely integrate their work into production. While coding agents will be an important area to focus on, this role spans developer tooling, infrastructure, and agent execution systems, and the systems you build will shape how software gets built at Clay. WHAT YOU’LL WORK ON You’ll help design and build the developer experience that powers the next generation of software engineering at Clay. This includes systems that make both engineers and coding agents dramatically more effective across the full development lifecycle. Areas you might work on include: - Monorepo organization, orchestration, and tooling - CI/CD pipelines, including evaluation and validation of agent-generated changes - Cloud dev environment exploration - Expose rich codebase context to coding agents, enabling multiple agents running and parallel and supporting automated refactors, migrations, and bug fixing - Setup metrics and dashboards, organize forums - and any other venue to keep a pulse on how the engineering team is doing and how they can further be assisted Our goal is to build the infrastructure harness that allows Clay to fully leverage the latest AI Advancements. WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE Success in this role means: - Clay engineers can move faster with less friction - Coding agents can operate with deep context and make meaningful changes safely - Our development environment adapts quickly as new AI capabilities emerge - Engineering productivity compounds as more of the software lifecycle becomes automated - Developing a relationship with the engineering team and creating a collaborative environment to resolve friction points WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR We’re looking for strong engineers who enjoy building systems that improve how software gets built. You might be a good fit if you: - Have experience building developer tooling, infrastructure, or internal platforms - Care deeply about developer experience and engineering productivity, including removing obstacles to productivity - Enjoy designing systems that automate complex workflows - Are excited about how AI will transform the software development lifecycle - Write clean, maintainable code and enjoy owning systems end-to-end You don’t need prior experience building AI systems — curiosity and experimentation matter more. WHY THIS ROLE IS UNIQUE Software engineering is changing quickly. AI models can generate code, but making that code useful in real production environments requires deep integration with developer workflows, infrastructure, and codebase context. At Clay, we’re investing heavily in building the systems that make that possible. You’ll be working on infrastructure that sits at the center of how software gets built, and helping define how engineering evolves in the age of AI.
